This is a must for anyone interested in comic book art!  |
|
This excellent book covers all of the major players in the comic book art world. Kirbys introduction was one of his last written works, and is a must have for Kirby fans. Byrnes article about the art process is definitive. Ohlandts article about the history of comic books is one of the best. Bravo!

Stunning Thriller  |
|
This is the epic tale about Woddy Allen, and his clairanet-esque fantasies of rice, laundramats, and his beloved little girl, Soon-Yi. Kelly captures the scene as if he was the matchmaker himself. I wont reveal the ending.

A smorgasbord of drawing styles |
Schodt discusses in graphic detail the evolution of Japanese comics from its roots in "irresponsible pictures" in 12th century scrolls, to Disney inspiration in the early 1950s, and works up to the 80s -- presenting such genres as sports, history, science fiction, and shojo (girls) comics.
This book might not be an exhaustive coverage of the Japanese comics industry, but Schodt makes a heroic attempt.
For an authoritative look into a piece of Japanese popular culture, buy this book!
