Tales to Astonish

TALES TO ASTONISH by Ronin Ro (Bloomsbury USA)
Fascinating, but awkwardly written and (purportedly) full of errors, this history of Jack Kirby’s legendary comics career suffers greatly from a complete lack of illustrations. Fanboys can conjure up the images in their heads, but the uninitiated will be lost. Still, a fun read (unless your name is Stan Lee).
