"Superhuman strength. Spider-sense. The ability to leap more than a mile. Retractable adamantium claws. In the Marvel Universe, superpowers turn normal people into superhumans. But it is the way they use these abilities that defines them as Super Heroes. Packed with scintillating stories and full-color illustrations from the decades-long histories of Captain America, the Incredible Hulk, the Amazing Spider-Man, and Wolverine, Classic Marvel Super Heroes brings together Marvel's mightiest. Captain America's half-century as the incarnation of his nation's ideals, Hulk's emergence as the first popular Super Hero antihero, Spider-Man's transformation from an awkward teenager into a cultural icon, and Wolverine's evolution into the most popular of Marvel's mutants--it's all in this exciting look at how the artists and writers at Marvel Comics have redefined the Super Hero genre." -- Back cover
