Masterful Marks: Cartoonists Who Changed the World — Monte Beauchamp
In a first-of-its-kind collection, award-winning illustrators celebrate the lives of the visionary artists who created the world of comic art and altered pop culture forever.
Sixteen Graphic Novel Biographies of:
• Walt Disney • Dr. Seuss • Charles Schulz • The Creators of Superman • R. Crumb • Jack Kirby • Winsor McCay • Hergé • Osamu Tezuka • MAD creator, Harvey Kurtzman • Al Hirschfeld • Edward Gorey • Chas Addams • Rodolphe Töpffer • Lynd Ward • Hugh Hefner
The story of cartoons -- the multibillion-dollar industry that has affected all corners of our culture, from high to low -- is ultimately the story of the visionary icons who pioneered the form.
But no one has told the story of comic art in its own medium -- until now.
In Masterful Marks, top illustrators -- including Drew Friedman, Nora Krug, Denis Kitchen, and Peter Kuper -- reveal how sixteen visionary cartoonists overcame massive financial, political, and personal challenges to create a new form of art that now defines our world.
