Willow Wilson (Ms. Marvel)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“A revelation, a tour both electrifying in its weird charisma and replenishing in its loving specificity . . . a testament, and a tribute.” —Jonathan Lethem\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Brilliant, eccentric, moving and wholly wonderful. . . . Wolk proves to be the perfect guide for this type of adventure: nimble, learned, funny and sincere. . . . \u003cem\u003eAll of the Marvels\u003c\/em\u003e is magnificently marvelous. Wolk’s work will invite many more alliterative superlatives. It deserves them all.” —Junot Díaz, \u003cem\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe superhero comic books that Marvel Comics has published since 1961are the longest continuous, self-contained work of fiction ever created. Thousands of writers and artists have contributed to it. Everyone recognizes its protagonists. Eighteen of the hundred highest-grossing movies of all time are based on parts of it. And Douglas Wolk has read the whole thing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWolk sees both into the ever-expanding story and through it, as a prism through which to view the landscape of American culture. In his hands, the mammoth Marvel narrative becomes a fun-house-mirror history of the past sixty years—a boisterous, tragicomic, magnificently filigreed epic about power and ethics, set in a world transformed by wonders.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA huge treat for Marvel fans, this book is also a revelation for readers who don’t know Doctor Strange from Doctor Doom. Here, truly, are all of the marvels.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Infinity Flux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131884454063,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0596\/3428\/6767\/files\/9780735222182.jpg?v=1782940246","url":"https:\/\/infinityflux.net\/products\/all-of-the-marvels-2021-softcover-pre-owned","provider":"Infinity Flux","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
