Marvel Vehicles: Owner's Workshop Manual


I don't know about you, but I grew up with a LOT of the old Haynes workshop manuals in the house. My step-dad liked to work on our cars and the manuals were VERY helpful. I learned just enough to be dangerous around cars from him and his trusty manuals... That's why I was more than a little excited when a new book from Insight Editions crossed my desk the other day - A workshop manual dedicated to Marvel's own vehicles! I was luck enough to snag a few images from the manual to share with our loyal CBM users, including the Avengers Quinet, the X-Jet/Blackbird and H.A.M.M.E.R. Helicarrier!




Marvel Vehicles: Owner's Workshop Manual is available NOW directly from Insight Editions or at other fine retailers (like Amazon.com). Weighing in at over 150 pages, there's a TON to see. Got a gearhead on your holiday shopping list? Maybe a comic nerd (like myself)? This will make the perfect gift!

Hopefully my dad isn't reading this... It would totally ruin the surpirse...


They may be best known for getting around on their own steam, but sometimes even Marvel Super Heroes need some extra torque. This Haynes Manual will take a look at the amazing vehicles of the Marvel Comics universe, from the X-Men's supersonic jet, The Blackbird, to the mighty Helicarrier that transports the Avengers into battle and the Green Goblin's preferred method of travel, the Goblin Glider. Also covering less well-known modes of transport like Spider-Man's custom beach buggy, the Spider-Mobile, this lavishly illustrated book will form a comprehensive guide to the iconic vehicles that have helped make the Marvel Universe so rich and compelling. Marvel Vehicles: Owner's Workshop Manual will come complete with schematics and in-depth technical information, making it essential for Marvel fans everywhere.

On a related note, I've read that the US govt. wants to build hellicarriers... Like for reals B.

This is one thing I would mind my tax dollars going towards.

Pretty awesome. I always loved the technical schematics in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe from the early '80s.

@Gusto, @Brainiac13 - I just re-enabled his account. He should be able to log back in, post, etc.. He may need to clear his browser cache/cookies.
