... but there are a few missing characters. For an updated, revised and expanded "Most comprehensive" guide, there are a LOT of dropped people and short entries. I mean, I know that the website has all the power stats and thorough entries, but is it too much to ask for the printed version of the resource to even have PIXIE, for cryin out loud? Especially for $45.00 USD plus tax?
Glad I checked it out of the library before I invested in this reference book. Good for a casual reader, but if you're looking for a truly complete resource for any papers, fic, or GURPS/RPG, then keep hunting/hoping, or invest in an iPad and a subscription to the complete online collection.
Conclusion? Not truly an encyclopedia, but more of an encyclopedic dictionary.
