Curt Swan a Life in Comics

Bag om Curt Swan a Life in Comics

The artwork of Curt Swan (1920-1996) defined the look of Superman for over 30 years. His amazing skills of storytelling, draftsmanship and design brought a realism and sense of wonder to The Man of Steel's adventures, making them the best-selling comic books of their day. Filled with iconic artwork, this biography traces the artist's career from its beginning on features like Gangbusters to his widespread regard as the Dean of American comics and, later, his frustrations with an industry that began to view his classic, dignified work as unfashionable. This monograph features one-on-one interviews with Curt's family as well as with comics legends Joe Kubert, Carmine Infantino, Murphy Anderson and more.
