5.0 out of 5 stars A feast for the eyes of Marvel Fans., July 14, 2004

The Art of Marvel, Vol. 1

The Art of Marvel Comics is, in two words, jaw-dropping. Compiling the collected works of some of the comic book industry's giants, such as Alex Ross, Bill Sienkiewicz, Joe Quesada, and Moebius (among many others) this collection is a celebration of the great iconic superheroes that we all grew up with: Spiderman, Daredevil, the Hulk, the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and many more. A feast for the eyes that finally gives love to the old school fans of the House of Ideas, and finally puts together several fantastic pieces that have been floating around for years, such as Moebius' unique take on various Marvel Heroes such as Iron Man and the Punisher, and Mr. Sienkiewicz's stunning rendition of Elektra, to name a few, all in one sumptuous hardcover volume. Whether a fan of Marvel or their Distinguished Competition, this is a must-have edition for all True Believers. Buy it now.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT, November 24, 2003
By 
This review is from: The Art of Marvel, Vol. 1 (Hardcover)
Marvel Comics always had the upper hand when it came to both the depth of their characters and the art that made those words come life. This book is a celebration of that art and how it transpires through these modern times.

most of the Marvel's heores are showcased and you get to look at previous covers, past renditions and modern art of your favorite characters, from Spider-Man to the Hulk and even the X-Men (their chapter has a couple of pages exclusively for Wolverine).

All in all and excellent book with a wide variety of hot artists, from Alex Ross to Tim Sale to even Joe Quesada. This is a must have for all comics fans out there who still have that tingle in their eye, each time they see a cover with Spidey swinging on it.

3.0 out of 5 stars obsolete, July 30, 2006
This review is from: The Art of Marvel, Vol. 1 (Hardcover)
Nice book, but not a "must have" since the images are way too known or used everywhere and the edition is nothing special or attractive.
