Civil War: Battle Damage Report

    (Marvel, 2007)

A Guide to the Marvel Universe done up as a S.H.I.E.L.D. report by Tony Stark (Iron Man), this “damage report” contains entries for every major character and dozens so minor they’re sub-atomic (occasionally literally). Honestly, there are characters in here whose creators wouldn’t even recognize them. One wishes that the real America had leaders so competently analytical as Stark, since we’re already saddled with privacy invading control freaks. Even the most trivia-minded nerd will be satisfied with the comprehensive encyclopedia here. High marks for stamina go to writers Anthony Flamini and Ronald Byrd, who now surely go to sleep at night with lists of secret identities for Big Wheel and the Living Mummy rattling through their brave skulls.
