Abstract
Widely considered the father of the graphic novel, the late Will Eisner is recognized as a comic genius by those familiar with his work. Well into his eighties, Eisner continued to inspire young people with his pioneering graphic style. The author of this engaging book traces Eisner’s life from his earliest days as an illustrator to the height of his career as the creator of The Spirit. Young readers will find the inspiration for his characters, abundant color illustrations of Eisner’s work, and extensive captions that reveal some of the artist’s methods and motivations.
