The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe #7

Issue seven of this indispensable 1983 reference series covers everything from Mandarin to Mystique, and the cover by penciler Ed Hannigan and inker Joe Rubinstein throws you right into the thick of the Marvel Universe's "M" roster. Moon Knight dominates the foreground in his striking white costume, while a red-haired figure in purple and a green-clad woman surge dynamically behind him, surrounded by a colorful crowd of heroes and villains stretching into the background. It's a wonderfully energetic snapshot of just how rich and varied this corner of Marvel's mythology truly is.
