Will Eisner A Spirited Life HC New Printing

Description

Same great book as the original, but half the price! A full-color deluxe biography of Will Eisner, detailing a 70-year career in which he spearheaded comics for adult readers and created the first widely accepted graphic novel, and his enduring character The Spirit. Author Bob Andelman spent almost three years interviewing Eisner prior to his passing, researching his life and work and interviewing friends, family, and colleagues including Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons, Neil Gaiman, Denis Kitchen, Joe Kubert, Stan Lee, Jules Feiffer, Neal Adams, and Patrick McDonnell. Included are hundreds of images from Will's archives and private collections, and new interviews with Howard Chaykin, Darwyn Cooke, Sergio Aragones, Michael Uslan, and others, which add depth to the reader's knowledge of Eisner's body of work. Introduction by Michael Chabon, with a Foreword by Neal Adams.
