Jim Steranko. Neal Adams. Some of the greatest comic book artists of their generation  who created some of their greatest work during The Silver Age of Comics (circa 1956-1970). They not only drew definitive versions of the mediums greatest characters  but set trends in the art of comic book storytelling. Now this popular and influential body of work  along with each artists thoughts  ideas and commentary  is presented in The Silver Age of Comic Book Art  a coffee table comic book art history book written and designed in a daringly different format by comic book historian and illustrator Arlen Schumer  and published in hardcover and digital\/e-book editions by Archway Publishing (from Simon \u0026amp; Schuster). Dynamic spreads of the actual printed comic art  graphically enlarged  are integrated with comic-styled text  often by the artists themselves  that replaces the original comic book copy with more personalized prose that places the art firmly in the period it was created: the turbulent 1960s. By creating a comic book history book that reads like a comic book  Schumer succeeds spectacularly in making you see  as if for the first time  the comics youve been reading your whole life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44983958437941,"sku":"ByrdShop_1480806366","price":227.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781480806368.jpg?v=1770815921","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-silver-age-of-comic-book-art","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
