Useful and informative - By: T. R. Alexander, 07 Feb 2008 
Including hundreds of heroes & villains from the DC Universe as well as short entries for important places, events & equipment, the DC Comics Encyclopaedia is a book that would be useful for both those new to DC's comics as well as those who have read them for years.
Having been published in 2004 this book is currently somewhat out of date but this is only to be expected with a book focussing on something with an ever expanding universe. As someone relatively new to the world of DC I have found this book invaluable as a place to look for information on characters that I come across who I know little to nothing about. Many of the entries in this book are rather short but they are alll informative including a brief biography & a picture of the character detailed. The book could do with some proof reading in places but overalll this is a well researched & informative encyclopaedia.

The best present money can buy, for a comic book fan! - By: , 08 Jan 2006 I bought this as a gift for my partner, who is a self-confessed "Comic Book Geek", I wasn't sure if this was going to be a great gift, or a pitiful gift, as he is very particular about what he likes in terms of comics.
Luckily he loved it & now many months on, he still flicks through it nearly every day. It contains everyone from Superman & Wonder Woman down to the very strange, wierd & wonderful "nobodies". Its a very detailed & concise look into the DC universe & I consider it to be the best present I have ever bought anyone.
I would highly recommend this, its a great price & worth every penny!
It's an encyclopedia. - By: , 09 Jun 2005 This book is exactly what it claims to be..it's an a-z list of every character that's ever been featured in a DC comic.
The artwork is great & it's nice to see who did what & to who & if they are still alive or not.
It's funny to see how 'corny' DC are compared to marvel, but that's half the fun!!!
