4.0 out of 5 stars A SLIGHTLY FLAWED LOOK AT THE AESTETICS OF COMIC BOOK ART, August 24, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The Art of the Comic Book: An Aesthetic History (Studies in Popular Culture) (Paperback)
This is very well written book that is nevertheless slighty flawed due to the fact that Harvey had to split his great big book on comic strips and comic books into two books leaving this one a little uneven. Still the chapters on Jack Kirby, Will Eisner, Gil Kane, Harvey Kurtzman, and R. Crumb border on wonderfull. I do have one or two minor caveats. Why didn't Harvey Kurtzman get a chapter by himself? He's certainly important enough to warrent one. Instead he has to share one with Howie Chaykin, Frank Miller, Jim Steranko, and Alex Nino among others. Still, it's a good book no matter how much I nit-pick.
