The DC Book of Lists
A Multiverse of Legacies, Histories, and Hierarchies
Checking Availibility...Description
Packed with 100+ inventive groupings, hierarchies, and infographics, The DC Book of Lists offers a creative way of looking at both the well-known and obscure histories of the top heroes and villains from the DC Universe across 80+ years.
Each entry in this book celebrates another corner of DC's past, present, and future. It revels in the rich tapestry of DC's characters and history. Or histories, for that matter. Each first meeting of Batman and Superman is listed, as are highlights of Hawkman's many reincarnations and Jimmy Olsen's transformations. Harley Quinn's most peculiar career choices? They make quite a resume. The DC Book of Lists also has a chronological list of artificial intelligence, from the 2nd century to the 823rd--with Metal Men, Brother Eye, and Computo along the way--and a Mount Olympus family tree presents Wonder Woman's expansive list of relatives. Legacy characters like the Flash and Green Lantern are highlighted, profiling each character to don the mantle, and Suicide Squad members are memorialized in a breakdown of who was killed on each mission. From superheroes and villains with tattoos to the many cats prowling around the DC multiverse, you'll find a surprise or two on every page.
Illustrated with full-color comic book art throughout, each page of The DC Book of Lists presents a new discovery or way of looking at cherished characters.
