and advice to the apprentice artist. Bursting with Buscema's magnificent
illustrations and Lee's laudable word-magic, How to Draw Comics the
Marvel Way belongs in the library of every kid who has ever wanted
to illustrate his or her own comic strip. |

COMICS
The Invisible Art |

Paperback: 224 pages
Kitchen Sink Press

$22.95
|
| A comic book
about comic books. McCloud, in an incredibly accessible style, explains
the details of how comics work: how they're composed, read and understood.
More than just a book about comics, this gets to the heart of how we deal
with visual languages in general. "The potential of comics is limitless
and exciting!" writes McCloud. This should be required reading for every
school teacher. |

| Pulitzer Prize-winner
Art Spiegelman says, "The most intelligent comics I've seen in a long time."
Exhaustive in scope, this detail-packed book includes a history of comics
that reaches back to pre-Columbian picture manuscripts and Egyptian monuments,
an explanation of how sequential art is constructed and why, and a running
analysis of comics as art, literature, and communication. Illustrations
throughout.
New
York Times Book Review:
In
one lucid, well-designed chapter after another, he guides us through the
elements of comics style, and...how words combine with pictures to work
their singular magic. When the 215-page journey is finally over, most readers
will find it difficult to look at comics in quite the same way ever again. |
