Eric Fein's book, part of a six-part series on the Marvel superheroes, does a nice job explaining about the early days of the company and the writers and artists who created the Incredible Hulk, in addition to other heroes. I've never had a child who is into Superheroes before. Since I do now, and I read my share of children's books about them, I appreciate being able to put them into a more historical and cultural context. Big comic-book geeks might not find much new here -- but I certainly did.

This book is one of six books in a series of books covering the origins of Marvel Superheroes. Each book in the series is short and sweet and to the point but don’t sell them short. They are not children’s books. They are a historical record of the superhero complete with timelines, highlights, and glossaries, reading lists, bibliographies and indexes. They include comic book art and historical images to supplement the text. This book deals with the Hulk character. Created by Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, the first Hulk comic book was in 1962. The Hulk has proven to be one of Marvel Comics most popular heroes.
