Chock full of stuff that I either forgot, or more likely, never knew. It made me want to rush out and scour back-issue bins... something I don't really enjoy, which I know is unusual for a comics fan. Gotta admit that reading some of these entries is a bit like one of the threads here on LEGION WORLD where one poster starts a story with one word... to be continued by another word by another poster and so on.
There's a lot of info compressed into these entries. THE COMMITTEE... THE CONSPIRACY... THE BLACK LAMA... THE CRUSADERS... DOCTOR GLITTERNIGHT... HELLCOW(!)... GOLEM...MATADOR... LADY LIBERATORS... MR. ZODIAC... SLITHEROGUE... DEFENDERS FOR A DAY (I don't remember that! How is that possible?)... TAGAK THE LEOPARD LORD... THEY WHO WIELD POWER... VIRAGO... WRAITH... some of these must be due for re-exploration soon. Why else would they be featured? Not all of them, I'm sure. But I wouldn't be at all surprised if several of these long-unseen characters pop up sometime soon.

Could be, could be.
Marvel has certainly been known to take the "throw it up against the wall and see what sticks" approach.
Funny thing is, I've read a lot of this stuff, and in more than a few cases the write-ups in the handbook are more interesting than the actual story.
