Dunno if folks have seen this? But here is a fan net book of Spider-Man's Guide to NY. And they did a phenomenol job! I look forward to more sections AND more books in the future, ozbot.typepad.com/spideyguide/ |

Yes. I've been keeping an eye on the updates of Spiderman book. They really did a great job putting everything together. I like the adventure generator.
Did you know that they were thinking about doing another book. They were going to expand on magic and dimensions but some of the authors wanted to move on to do other projects.
I would have loved to see a book about space travel,aliens, and some alien superheroes and ultra powerful characters written up.

That would have been awesome to see a dimensional book. Means we would have gotten stats and info on Thanos among others. Would be very cool. Well from the sounds of things with the Spidey book they are having a contest and then they are finishing up the book. Winners get a free copy of the book with the bonus characters. So I wonder if they are springing to make a bunch hardbound? I am waiting for them to finish it so I can get it hardbound myself, just don't know how much that would cost. Probably pretty pricey.

I was looking up stuff for DL SAGA and I came across a thread in which the poster lamented the Spidey book must be cursed. The poster said TSR killed Marvel SAGA just before they were to release a Spidey book for SAGA.
Freaky, I know....

'Tis true.
The next Saga releases were to be Marvel Team-Up and The Green Goblin's Guide to Crime.

When I following the drama unfold about the future of MURPG, one of the authors said that he and QED felt MURPG sold well enough to warrant striking out on their own and divorcing MURPG engine from Marvel. Marvel would not make any deals with QED about licensing the game engine.

The next book after Spidey was to focus on Wolverine. It would have been interesting to see what else the book would contain. Weapon X? Alpha Flight?

I would have been just fine with the Spidey book (I really wanted the Adventure Generator ever since I heard Evan talk about it).
Let's see. The only other books I would have liked to see published would be:
An expansion on magic in the Marvel Universe and the many dimensions and denizens that inhabit the them.
Space and aliens.
World book? Sort of superheroes and villians by countries.
Reed Richard's Guide to MURPG.
Personally, I thought it strange that the next book after Spidey would have been Wolverine. Not sure how much you can fill just by concentrating on that character.
Were you disappointed with the way they put the Hulk and Avengers together like that in the book? Wish that crappy movie never came out (The Hulk movie).

Well the Wolverine book made sense since it was rumoured that the Wolverine movie was coming out and the X-men film(s) were out at that time. Didn't bother me any that Hulk and Avengers were put together but I did feel the book felt rushed and didn't have a lot of solid info. Especially with all that team stuff that took up the majority of the book. I liked the Hulk movie myself.  |

I'm still having to get this book printed up. I wonder if there are any companies that could produce this into a hardcover book much like its official counterparts?
