Comic Book Birthday (1933)
-- The first modern comic book was Famous Funnies, released in the US in 1933. It was a reprinting of earlier newspaper humor comic strips. The term comic book comes from American comic books once being a compilation of comic strips. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster introduced Superman in 1938, turning comic books into a major industry, and so began the Golden Age of Comics.
Read: The DC Comics Encyclopedia,
-- Created in full collaboration with DC Comics, this easy-to-use A-to-Z guide is the most comprehensive reference book on the DC Comics characters. Packed with information and thrilling comic book art, this one-volume encyclopedia features more than 1,100 characters, including Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Joker, and much more. 48 brand-new pages include major updates on characters and storylines (including the recent Infinite Crisis story arc). This spectacular, up-to-the-minute encyclopedia will delight comic fans of every age.
Read a bunch of comic books!
-- Book Lot 50 Comics Good Condition! Superman, Batman, X-men, etc. Looks great as they were new (never read) when they were bagged and boarded. All comics are different, with no duplicates.
How To Draw Comics The Marvel Way
-- One of the first and still one of the best, Stan Lee's How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way has been the primary resource for any and all who want to master the art of illustrating comic books and graphic novels. Stan Lee, the Mighty Man from Marvel, and John Buscema, active and adventuresome artist behind the Silver Surfer, Conan the Barbarian, the Mighty Thor and Spider-Man, have collaborated on this comics compendium: an encyclopedia of information for creating your own superhero comic strips. Using artwork from Marvel comics as primary examples, Buscema graphically illustrates the hitherto mysterious methods of comic art. Stan Lee’s pithy prose gives able assistance and advice to the apprentice artist. Bursting with Buscema’s magnificent illustrations and Lee’s laudable word-magic, How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way belongs in the library of everyone who has ever wanted to illustrate his or her own comic strip.
