They also shared their favorite characters to explore, the joy of discovery behind the creation of this book, and more.

The book was listed in "good" condition, when actually, it was in "very-good to pristine" condition. The subjects' greatly increased physical prowess was the result of the Klyntar enveloping their human hosts within their mass, creating a flexible, breathable organic sheath. Jocasta's cyber-synaptic brain has even allowed her to experience humanlike emotions and sudden flashes of creativity — though I should note that some of these effects might be due to the fact that the Wasp's brain waves were used during the development of the neural template that became the foundation of Jocasta's intelligence.

I loved showing the audience how Symbiotes breathe through their tongue, or the way their curling white “eye spots” grant their hosts up to 270° vision. I am so thankful to them for giving me all the space I needed to illustrate this 230-page tome, and for appreciating (or at least tolerating) all my little visual insanities. They wanted us to believe that even the mightiest of Marvel’s champions could burst off the page and exist alongside us.Released by Insight Editions, Marvel Anatomy: A Scientific Study of the Superhuman, a deluxe book showcasing a visually stunning journey into the powers of the Marvel Universe's greatest characters, arrives everywhere books are sold on September 27, 2022.
