      I think the one you're mentioning is by Wallace M Crouch.

          Spider-Man The Icon: The Life and Times of a Pop Culture Phenomenon (Spiderman) (Hardcover)

                The Wallace Crouch book is light on content and quality photography, but it really inspired me to "collect them all" back in my mid-90s graduate school days. It was like candy.

                    I'd love see something covering the other formats: 3.75" lines, the 12" inch lines, bend n' flexes, the die cast and magnetic heroes...

                      Tomart's did several "Guide to Action Figure Books". I have the 92 edition. It has some pretty good Mego figure pics, but the info isn't exactly accurate (definitely NOT Tomart's strong point).

                      Greenberg's is notoriously bad for misinformation. I'm sure many folks are still looking for the 8" Green Goblin's glider thanks to that book.

                      New books!?! Spill! Spill!!!
