I remember there was a monster encyclopedia in my local public library that was published in Britain in the 1970s, that had entries on monsters from Doctor Who and Marvel comics, but I can't remember the title or the author. Does anyone know?

I have THE ENCYLOPEDIA OF MONSTERS by Jeff Rovin published by Fats on File Inc...some or two Dr Who entries...but this was published in 89.

I think I know the book you are talking about as I used to own it. Sadly I no longer have it in my collection and have no idea what happened to it. I can't recall either the correct title or the author - Sorry.
I do recall that it had a really good mix of movie and TV monsters, marvel comics monsters and mythological monsters (Greek, roman, Irish) so it was a fascinating read. Good pictures too.
I think the cover had a collage of monsters (like 3000 other monster books) but with a prominent werewolf. Title may have been A to Z of Monsters or some variation of this. It was coffee table size not paperback. Sound like the same one?
Wish I still had that book. Anyone else have any information about it?

It's probably The Horrific World of Monsters by Dulan Barber, or it's earlier release as Monster's Who's Who.

Yes that's the one. Thanks for solving the mystery.
