Abstract |
Glimpse into the long history of painted comic book storytelling! Rooting in the two-fisted pulp fiction of the 1920s, trading cloaks for capes during the Golden Age of the 1940s, establishing icons of horror and fantasy on the magazine covers of the 1960s, capturing glamour and excess in the original graphic novels of the 1980s, and finally becoming mainstream in the modern era, painted artworks has played a crucial role throughout the decades in catching the attention and igniting the imagination of comic lovers everywhere. The Art of Painted Comics, a rich and colorful retrospective featuring hundreds of cover and storyboard images, proves once and for all that this imaginative art form is prolific, influential, and worthy of acclaim.
