The 2003 Harvey Award Winner, Best Anthology―a Paris Review devoted to the art of comics. The third in The Comics Journa l's series of oversized coffe-table volumes, this lush collection of art, comics and commentary kicks off with a gigantic, career-spanning interview with legendary illustrator (and cover artist) William Stout, complete with copious illustrations and paintings.

Color and black-and-white comics and illustrations throughout
