I cannot believe anyone giving this book a bad review. Some people complain they don't know anything about Marvel, well, I'm not a Fantastic Four fan and have no knowledge of its story history and I was able to enjoy the saga of Galactus which is supposed to be one of the greatest Marvel stories ever told. There are four stories in this book, and each one starts with an intro from the author/artist/notable Marvel celeb just in case you are not familiar with Marvel Universe. This book would probably ...

I know I'm kind of late to the party, but this is easily on of the on of the best stories I've ever read from the Marvel universe. I can't say I'd recommend this to everyone though. As you probably know already the superheroes take a back seat to an 'average Joe' photographer in this one. I for one found it fascinating reliving some great moments in the history of Marvel from the point of view of the general public. One of my favorite moments was seeing the Fantastic Four's first clash with Galactus. ... Read More

Kurt Busiek, Marvels (Marvel, 2003)
So while all those big superhero battles were going on, what was the rest of the population thinking? Kurt Busiek gives us one answer to that question in Marvels, a story that touches on a large number of the stories battles in the Marvel universe, giving them to us from the perspective of a newspaper photographer-- not a superhero himself, just one of the guys on the street. We get to see the ambivalence of the common folks towards superheroes, which is pretty ... Read More

Although we call them graphic novels, the truth is that in the world of comics the writers generally are given more credit than the illustrators for the ultimate result. Alex Ross is one of the exceptions. He is, in fact, one of the few artists whose work on a project might be more of a pull for potential buyers than the writer involved. There is a subtlety to his work that few other artists in the genre can match. I'm no expert on the art of illustration, but a lot of his appeal seems to derive from departing ... Read More

"Marvels" was first published in 1994, written by an up-and-coming writer named Kurt Busiek, and introducing the world to the art of Alex Ross, whose painted style was (and, in many ways, still is) a revelation (albeit a revelation that would henceforth be mostly associated with rival DC Comics). I will start by saying that the comparisons to Ross' DC project "Kingdom Come" (with writer Mark Waid) are in most ways misleading. The only real similarity between the two is that they are both early famous works by Alex ... Read More
