Abstract
Whether you’re a comics artist looking for new avenues to market your talents, or a fan curious about how pros make a living outside the field, this is the book for you! Comics’ tremendous effect on popular culture is now felt in other storytelling mediums, and many artists are finding more and more work beyond the four-color page. Assembled in Comics Above Groundare top comics professionals talking about their inspirations and training, and how they apply it in “Mainstream Media,” including: Conceptual Illustration, Video Game Development, Children’s Books, Novels, Design, Illustration, Fine Art, Storyboards, Animation, Motion Pictures and other media. In it, Bruce Timm, Bernie Wrightson, Adam Hughes, Louise Simonson, Dave Dorman, Greg Rucka and other creators share their perspectives and their work in both comics and their “other professions.” This book also boasts career overviews, never before seen art, and interviews, as well as featuring the creators’ favorite works in comics!
