I'll fold him in later, but Back Issue #145 has Tom DeFalco's likely original notes to Ron Frenz on Puma, which are done in a style very close to the original Handbooks.

Also DC vs. Marvel. Marvel vs. DC parts were published by Marvel and thus #2 is in the Posters thread already.

Given something you mentioned previously, are you saying that both The Avengers: The Ultimate Guide to Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and Avengers: The Ultimate Character Guide both have multiple editions? Oh boy.

Okay:
The Avengers: The Ultimate Guide to Earth’s Mightiest Heroes: 2010
Spider-Man: Inside the World of Your Friendly Neighborhood Hero: 2012

To which I'll now add:
Wolverine: Inside the World of the Living Weapon: 2009

Basically I'm going through the old Non-Marvel posts chronologically, skipping the RPG as they are or will eventually be in the RPG thread. I'm currently at August 30, 2013.

I assume you mean that Avengers: The Ultimate Character Guide is 2010, because for Avengers: The Ultimate Guide to Earth’s Mightiest Heroes you already posted the 2012 version.
Do you need me to double-check the Wolverine book as well? (which only had one edition)

Yes, you're right. I copy and pasted the wrong title. Yes please for Wolverine. In particular for that book, I wasn't always sure what was a character profile and what was an event profile.

Just so I'm clear, both of the two Avengers guides above had multiples under their respective titles? I'm only adding years to the individual listings where there's at least one word difference.

Spider-Man: Inside the World of Your Friendly Neighborhood Hero (2012)

Madame Web is Carpenter
One of the brief Venom entries is Thompson, the other is Brock. The 2-page entry is Brock.
Anti-Venom is Brock
The brief Spider-Girl entry is Corazon. The 2-page entry is May Parker.
Spider-Woman is Drew
One of the brief Green Goblin entries is Norman Osborn, the other is Harry. The 2-page entry is Norman.
The Other is about the storyline, not the totem.
The New Spider-Man is arguably more about Miles Morales than about the event.

Wolverine

The Origin is specifically about the 6-issue storyline, not Wolverine’s origin in general.
Weapon X is about the Barry Windsor-Smith story, not the program in general.
Onslaught is about the entity, not the event.
Death is about Wolverine’s Horseman alter ego, not the cosmic personification.
Weapon Plus is about the government program, not the space station.
Death of Wolverine is about the Logan Dies storyline, not the 2014 event.

Thx for the latest corrections. I adjusted most of the above, though what you indicated for Green Goblin seems to jibe with what I already had.

A follow up question and a new question:
Avengers: The Ultimate Character Guide and The Avengers: The Ultimate Guide to Earth’s Mightiest Heroes both had multiple editions, correct?

Question I overlooked before: for Death of Spider-Man (Ult) was that his death that lead to Miles Morales becoming Spider-Man or his death from roughly a year prior (real world time)?

I've now added Iron Man: The Ultimate Guide to the Armored Super Hero (2010 if there are multiple editions). For my sanity and to avoid a lot of cross-references that people probably won't use, I created a special sub-section on the Iron Man armors a little ways below Iron Man himself, This is another book I don't have so I had to make more guesses. I imagine most of the supporting cast are okay, but less sure on some of the villains and Spare Parts Man. With one exception that I caught, I assumed that that armors were listed in the same order as the model numbers in the Handbooks.



 

Thx. Re: Death of Spider-man: It's been overshadowed by the death that led to Miles Morales (2011), but prior to that there was Spider-Man's seeming death that led to Ultimatum: Spider-Man Requiem (2009). So two years, not one, but close enough that I remembered when the Miles event was announced thinking, "Didn't they just do that?"

It's about the 2011 story.
