Customer Reviews

Excellent.

Great book. Found this used at Myopic Books in Chicago. I originally bought it for my brother's wife who is a big fan of Sandman and Vertigo in general, but the pictures and artwork were so f***ing awesome I kept it and bought her the one I'm reviewing right now. This might even get me into comics and graphic novels where previously I've been curious but basically indifferent. Great for the coffee table too.

A comphrehensive look at the art of Vertigo

At last, an anthology of the brilliant work of the artists who painted the covers for Preacher, The Sandman, Astro City, et al

Wow! Comic Art of its best

This book is great because you can see that comic art is really art. The pictures shown in this book are really fabolous and you will wonder how good this people are. This book is for every comic fan especially fans of the Vertigo comics (who already knows that Vertigo often has great artworks) and the book is a must for every graphic designer who wants to see whats modern and get inspiration. But also people who like nice drawings and paintings can buy this and i'm sure they won't get your nose out of this.
