This book is much much better than the 1986 movie Howard the Duck. This book collects reprinted issues of Marvel Comics Howard the Duck #1 - #27, Howard the Duck Annual #1, Marvel Treasury Edition #12 and Giant-Size Man-Thing #4. Special Guest appearances by Spiderman, Man-Thing, Dr Strange, Son of Satan, The Avengers and the rock group KISS. Not to mention a very loose parody of the original Star Wars movie. A lot of tongue in cheek humor and satire.
