Rating (1-5):photo of Kid Reviewer Donut   Rating

Reviewed by Nick
Author: Stan Lee
Genre: How-to book

Summary:
One of the best how to draw books ever.

What I liked: This book really shows you how to draw comics the Marvel way. It shows you how to draw with solid

shadows, blended shadows, defined muscles, you name it, and you can draw it. I guarantee when you're done with this book, your comic

skills will be increased ten-fold.

Didn't like: I didn’t find anything wrong with this book. All pros’s for the pros. :)

Additional: My dad also has used this book and agrees with me completely that this is an outstanding book. Below are some pages from the book, and a drawing of mine after reading it. Click on a photo for a larger image.

Plenty of pages showing how to start from lines and geometric shapes, and working towards a shaped and active character.

From the chapter on foreshortening, to give perspective to your active characters.

Hey, that's a nice job on Captain America.
Yep, I remember this book. It's a good one. I went through it years ago.
Your entry here makes me want to go find another copy of it!
