Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Product Information
The World of a Wayward Comic Book Artist: The Private Sketchbooks of S. Plunkett is a fascinating look at the creative processes of Sandy Plunkett. A self-taught illustrator and comic book artist, Plunkett came of age in New York City during the '60s and '70s and began drawing for Marvel Comics at eighteen. Throughout his ongoing career he has drawn for several other major publishers, including DC. Featuring nearly four hundred selections from sketchbooks kept over the past twenty years, this collection is an insightful examination of the difficulties and successes Plunkett has experienced in keeping his work alive and evolving. The drawings cover a wide range of styles and subject matter, though all are rooted in the visual vernacular of illustration, comic, and popular art of America, evincing influences as diverse as Thomas Hart Benton and R. Crumb. Images of creatures, both actual and imagined, fabulous characters, and dreamlike worlds are juxtaposed with studies from Plunkett's life. The sketchbook images, along with a foreword by Michael Wm Kaluta and an updated interview of Plunkett by Comic Book Artist's Tim Barnes, provide a fascinating insight into artistic process, debate, and fruition.

"There's a timeless quality to Sandy Plunkett's work that never fails to give me a little jolt of envy and inspiration. I love his compositions, his rendering and all the emotion that he communicates with vivid facial expressions and carefully considered body language. I even envy his graceful signature. I'm thrilled to finally have a large collection of his drawings together under one cover." --Kevin Nowlan, Harvey Award- and Eisner Award-winning artist of Jack B. Quick, Boy Inventor, "...an alluring mix of superheroes, fantasy figures, life drawing, experiments, and more. (Plunkett) also provides a few essays in order to put some of the work into context, and an interview conducted with Plunkett by COMIC BOOK ARTIST also enhances the book as well. If you're looking to discover what kind of person draws comics, and perhaps why they draw comics, then this book will definitely aid in an exploration for answers. It's nicely produced, smartly packaged, and full of enough eye candy to satisfy the sweetest of sweet tooths."-- Comics Waiting Room, "At long last, the drought is over. All of us, and we are legion, who have for decades impatiently awaited that which we knew must exist-a vast trove of unseen Plunkett brilliance-have finally been amply rewarded." -Mark Schultz, creator of Xenozoic Tales, Plunkett has generally shunned the spotlights, intent on driving his own path both in his personal life as well as in the creative worlds at large.

He's never quite sure he's good enough, even while evidence of his talent is on the facing page.... Like all good journals, the book is a potpourri of ideas.... Grade: A"-- CityBeat (Cincinnati), "At long last, the drought is over. All of us, and we are legion, who have for decades impatiently awaited that which we knew must exist-a vast trove of unseen Plunkett brilliance-have finally been amply rewarded." -Mark Schultz, creator ofXenozoic Tales, "At long last, the drought is over.

( The World of a Wayward Comic Book Artist ) is a finely packaged testament to the many suggestive roads traveled thus far by someone who apparently, fiercely, literally lives and breathes Art itself.... As complete as any life in progress, this book has left me so speechless as to be stretching for the words with which to express its impact."-- SP! Nexus, "More than the artist sketchbook portfolios usually seen on the market, The World of a Wayward Comic Book Artist is an exploration of Sandy Plunkett's creative process. Intuitively arranged, sketches flow one to another, linked by narratives taken from Plunkett's sketchbooks, which often double as a journal."-- Kirkus Reviews, "There's a timeless quality to Sandy Plunkett's work that never fails to give me a little jolt of envy and inspiration. I love his compositions, his rendering and all the emotion that he communicates with vivid facial expressions and carefully considered body language. I even envy his graceful signature. I'm thrilled to finally have a large collection of his drawings together under one cover." -Kevin Nowlan, Harvey Award- and Eisner Award-winning artist of Jack B. Quick, Boy Inventor, "There's never been a person, self-proclaimed artist or otherwise, whose reaction to seeing their first Sandy Plunkett art wasn't 'Oh my! Where can I see more?' This book is an answer to all the years of our unified desire for a full helping of Sandy's art."--Michael Wm Kaluta, from the foreword

- v***v (2057)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
- 2***j (113)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
