"I enjoyed this book, and it had some interesting facts I didn't know. However, it really needed a better editor. Misspelled words were rampant, and the grammar was atrocious. It also felt clunky in the way it flowed. I felt like I was reading a ninth grader's English paper at times. It just didn't come together in a cohesive fashion."

- The topic is really interesting, but the book does not include a lot on the MCU (Marvel Comic Book Universe). There are many areas where the author could have expounded, and some characters in both DC and Marvel are completely left out. There are also a lot of typos throughout the book, and if no one ever edited it. I would love to see a revised edition with better editing that encompasses all of the comic book to big screen movies
- I enjoyed this book, and it had some interesting facts I didn't know. However, it really needed a better editor. Misspelled words were rampant, and the grammar was atrocious. It also felt clunky in the way it flowed. I felt like I was reading a ninth grader's English paper at times. It just didn't come together in a cohesive fashion.
- A series of reviews and critiques of comic book movies and how the pioneering movies affected future films.
This book provides insight into factors that influenced the stories and directions of the hated and loved DC and Marvel (in no particular order) franchises. It was a fun read and I recommend for the shelves of any comic book/movie fan. - First off, I would like to congratulate Benny and the Comicstorian team on their first foray into becoming authors. And while I may give a few reasons why I feel this book fell short, I wish them nothing but success in their next endeavor. Comicstorian on YouTube is fantastic! I know your books can be too!!!
My basic issue with this book was that it did not do anything special. It is a casual conversation with three people about comics being transferred on the big screen. Which would be fine if there was more effort put into their research. Interviews. Quotes. Commentaries. I was expecting real facts and information not conversationally vague summaries. And there is nothing wrong with that- but I can find that same information and opinion on Google!!! I didn't want so much a conversational commentary as I wanted a case study. They have really good thoughts/opinions but it would have been better with some production notes or something.
It isn't a bad book. But I can't recommend it because in the end- if your a guy who loves comics and movies, you probably already know, and feel, 95% of this book as it is. It doesn't say anything that you probably don't know. Also, their editor was terrible. I found so many grammatical and spelling errors that I felt embarrassed for the guy/girl. - Before this, Benny was probably top 10 on my man crush list. Now he is at least top 5, somewhere in between Christopher Nolan and Ben Cumberbatch. This book is highly entertaining. Anyone who enjoys comics or comic book movies will like this book and will appreciate his perspective and sense of humor.
- It has a lot of good information for anyone that hasn't kept up or may be new to comics.
- Good read, fun and entertaining
- Best book i ever bought everyone should have this on their bookshelf
