I was a novice when it came to Comic Books. I knew that some comic books were valuable and others were not. My husband is a huge comic book fan. So I began to read this awesome and interesting book. I like how the author gave several examples of valuable comics, brought it to his own life (in my own neighbor), and then tying everything together to the rise of the Super Hero Movies of today. I thought that the author was very knowledgeable, very engaging with his stories, and a natural storyteller. You could tell that his enthusiasm for the subject was one that he really cared about. I loved all of the pictures and the rare super heroes that you just don't see or read about any more. Well written and two thumbs way up!
