But that isn’t the only thing Marvel had in store for us, simply not content to let a momentous occasion like this to slip by, the book boasts over one hundred pages and a variety of short stories.
 
There’s seriously a lot of book here. Now to find out if it lives up to its special treatment…. Continue reading
