Avengers, assemble! Or if they don’t, you can definitely learn how to make them, with Stan Lee and John Buscema’s How to Draw Comics Marvel Way! Summary of the Book You’ve read every issue of the Amazing Spider-Man, enacted all your favourite scenes in your mind and tried to make your own web shooter like brainy old Peter Parker. You’ve managed to think up a great storyline in which the Hulk faces Warmachine and it’s up to Thor to break up the fight. You’ve written a story that could put the Civil War saga on ice. But as any comic book fan will tell you, the story is only half the work. The drawings are what complete comics, bring the characters alive before your eyes. Without great art work, you’ll be hard put to find readers or even to impress yourself. There’s no need for concern, however. There’s no one better to teach you how to draw comics than two of the pillars of Marvel Comics: Stan Lee and John Buscema! In this book, you will learn how to draw the characters you’ve come to love. Learn how to draw details from the masters, and learn how hands might be the most important part of any sketch. Discover how to go from the storyboard to the final comic in easy steps, and learn how the greatest strips were made. This book includes details on how to draw facial expressions, masks, background scenery and the most important parts of a comic book: the components of a comic book page! It’s all here, brought to you in classic style by your friendly neighbourhood Stan Lee and the incredible John Buscema!
