The Great Comic Book Artists
Description:
From Library Journal\nAlthough this is a subjective listing of the greatest comic book artists, it could not come from a more informed source than comic book historian Goulart. Goulart is also the author of numerous science fiction novelswhich explains his bias toward the science fiction and fantasy-oriented artists. The book gives a one-page biography of each artist and devotes one page to a sample of his work. For comic book aficionados this may not be quite enough to whet their appetites, but librarians should be able to use the work as a reference tool; Goulart also tells in what editions of what comic books a particular artist's work appeared. Recommended for art libraries and subject collections. Mike Donovan, Cornell Univ.

Copyright 1986 Reed Business Information, Inc.\nFrom Publishers Weekly\nSF-novelist Goulart, author of more than 125 books, has written for both comic strips (Star Hawks and comic books, in addition to extensively documenting comics history (The Adventurous Decade. Here he offers alphabetical essays on the lives, careers, styles and works of 60 leading comic-book talents, ranging from the simple, bold lines of C. C. Beck (Captain Marvel) and the obsessively detailed art of Wallace Wood ("I would rather draw than eat") to graphic innovators Bernard Krigstein and Frank Miller (Ronin). Often quoting from a leading trade publication, Comics Journal, Goulart gives each artist a single page of copy facing a full page of art. This format is preferable to the many books about comics that negate the concept of sequential storytelling art by excerpting only single panels. (June
