The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe #14

Covering everyone from Unicorn to Wolverine, this fourteenth installment of the Deluxe Edition handbook packs its cover with a dynamic crowd of Marvel characters — Wolverine crouches front and center with claws extended, flanked by a cast that includes winged and energy-powered figures soaring overhead alongside armored and fur-clad characters filling the foreground. Keith Pollard's pencils and Joe Rubinstein's inks bring a lively energy to the ensemble, making it easy to appreciate just how vast the Marvel Universe had grown by 1987. Mark Gruenwald's meticulous approach to cataloguing these characters made this series an essential reference, and this issue is a satisfying deep dive into a rich alphabetical stretch of Marvel's roster.
