Superheroes: Joe Kubert's Wonderful World of Comics
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Dynamic superheroes star in this entertaining instructional book on the art of creating powerful comic book characters. Opening with the fascinating history of the genre, the book's legendary author/teacher then illustrates the basic structure of both male and female superheroes, their classic facial expressions, body language, and ways to evoke other aspects of the superhero personality. Typical story settings, climate, and terrain are all delved into, as are structuring a story and script, making rough sketches, thumbnail layouts, and spot lettering.
Joe Kubert's artistry has produced extensive work for Flash and DC Comics, the newspaper strip "Green Berets," a 3-D process for comic books, and a graphic novel, "Fax from Sarajevo," which earned the prestigious Eisner Award. The long-established Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art is located in the author's hometown, Dover, New Jersey.
