A fun little guide about the female superheroes Marvel rarely puts into their movies.
In all seriousness, this guide is really good. The artwork is amazing and the little bios for each character are pretty interesting. For once it wasn't totally filled with characters I already knew about and actually led me to discover some I had never heard of before. Particularly the women of colour. There are so many ladies who aren't getting the love the deserve and it made me a little angry, and quite honestly determined to find all their comics and read them myself. When people don't talk about them, these characters fall to the wayside and that is beyond sad.

This book is a great way to introduce younger readers to the many great female characters of Marvel Comics. The character selection is diverse and covers characters from many varied corners of the Marvel Universe (though it does have some big omissions; I hope we get a second volume later).
Highly recommended for someone looking for a quick, entertaining and easy to read introduction to Marvel Comics.

A good way to find new books to read. Lacking information about the artist/creators of each character.

This is a great overview of women super heroes in the Marvel universe! I'm tempted to get a Marvel Unlimited subscription because I want to read all the comics now, but they don't state which comics the characters appear in. I know the list would be long for some but even having the debut comic would be helpful in finding where one can read more about these heroes.
