\nALL OF THE MARVELS is a huge treat for fans of the comics, and it\u2019s also a revelation for readers who don\u2019t know Doctor Strange from Doctor Doom. A National Arts Journalism Program Fellow and winner of the Eisner Award for Best Comics-Related Book, Wolk has written about comics and culture for outlets like the New York Times and Los Angeles Times. He is a lifelong comics reader and an expert on all things Marvel, and that knowledge shines throughout ALL OF THE MARVELS as he tackles the comics\u2019 world of constant spectacle and drama, so broad and complicated that its mysteries perpetually unfold over hundreds of pages every week. But just as engaging is Wolk\u2019s enthusiasm for making the Marvel story accessible to readers of all backgrounds. There is no such thing as \u201creal fan\u201d or \u201cfake fan\u201d on Wolk\u2019s tour through Marvel\u2019s fascinating web of series and stories\u2014the only requirement is curiosity.
\n\u201cBrilliant, eccentric, moving and wholly wonderful\u2026 Wolk proves to be the perfect guide for this type of adventure: nimble, learned, funny and sincere\u2026 \u201cAll of the Marvels\u201d is magnificently marvelous. Wolk\u2019s work will invite many more alliterative superlatives. It deserves them all.\u201d \u2014Junot D\u00edaz, The New York Times Book Review<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
