What fun this book is! Readers new to comics can learn the basic history of the Silver Age (between 1958-1970), while more seasoned readers can gawk at the full-color photos of classic covers. There's a great Batman cover with aliens that have pink/white/black stripes on their bodies, green heads, and antenna! That one made me chuckle!
Along with the photos are pretty recent prices that these particular comics fetched. Some sold for a few hundred but some went for tens of thousands! Don't you wish you still had those issues from your childhood?!
I found the book to be a little heavy on the DC side, but had so much enjoyment looking through all of the pages that it didn't really annoy me.
I recommend Rise Of The Superheroes to all comics fans!
