"500 Comic Book Villains"

 
WORTH CONSUMING!

A good reference to villains you’ve never heard of. Mediocre about the ones you do know about. Spell check and a good editor is needed for this book. And it leaves out entries to important villains… No General Zod, Rha’s Al Ghul is briefly footnoted, and Fin Fang Foom is on the cover, but nowhere to be found. And some titles are overused. (I mean how many Judge Dredd villains do you need to know about anyway???)

There is a companion volume to this (500 Comic Book Heroes), but I do not know if I want to read it or not.
