Also included are several pages of promotional art, sketches, art done for DC Direct product, and much more!

Though I sometimes find Alex Ross's art to be a little TOO realistic, there are infinitely more instances where his painted work here is majestic and iconic beyond words. And speaking of words, Paul Dini demonstrates a deep understanding of each character represented here and tells their tales capably, thoughtfully, and emotionally. It's a gorgeous volume for a killer price. Grab it.
