The ninth installment of Marvel's ambitious reference series tackles the Q–S range, promising comprehensive entries from Quasar all the way to She-Hulk. Ed Hannigan's pencils and Joe Rubinstein's inks bring the cover to life with a dynamic assemblage of Marvel characters — most prominently the Silver Surfer and Scarlet Witch surging forward, with Quasar, a winged figure, and several others filling out the energetic composition. For anyone serious about knowing their Marvel Universe inside and out, this 1983 volume is an indispensable companion.
