HE !
Really?
Then there are Mantlo comics you have not read. He's Alpha Flight, first appears in later Byrne issues. He's the second Box.

Help!
The handbook, Fantastic Four Fifty Fantastic Years, slipped under my radar. I can find no copies on ebay or from my usual store. Has anyone spotted this elsewhere?
It only came out today but I can find no copies!

Cheers. I couldn't find it on that site as I was typing in the actual publication name which is 'Fantastic Four' not FF.

Yeah. They have started to lose some business from me due to that.

I see the first A-Z softcover is out. I must have it. Had a few of the oversized HC's but got shot of them as I did not like the series in that format.

Let me know what it is like.
The recent FF handbook has some odd entries for an FF-centric issue: Evelyn Necker and Doctor Sun!

I can see the relevance of both. Doctor Sun only really appeared in FF. And there are FF characters in Necker's book which she shared with some other long forgotton character....

Doctor Sun was more of a Tomb of Dracula villain and better suited to a Monster Handbook.
Necker had minimal connections with FF.

yeah but it's what? Fourth FF Handbook? Running a little dry now I'd have thought.
Marvel:
Thunderbolts
Exiles
Alpha Flight
Make these handbooks. I have money for you.

I could there had been an Exiles one but my memory may be faulty.
*checks internet*
Yep, faulty.

There's an Alternate Universes one with Exiles entries.

Arrived yesterday. I thought it was better than many of the recent ones I'd read, possibly due to the Z-listers within being Z-listers I have an interest in: Cloud, Jack Norris and (gasp) The Torpedo! |

Avengers Roll Call is out and is also one of the very few Handbooks on Comixology. Which is a shame as they suit the digital format very well.
EDIT: Or rather when properly put up that. For some ******* stupid reason it's been put up in double page spread format so the only way to read it is in guided view. Handbooks really don't work in guided view. FFS!

It's out. The Comixology version is on my phone!
Why the back-catalogue of Handbooks is not on Comixology mystifies me. The format is ideal for digital! I would happily splurge for digital copies. Used to have loads of them in floppy and Essential formats but they had to go when I moved to a flat with less storage space. I especially loved the Essentials and floppy decade themed issues.
