Increíble recopilación de los trabajos más destacados de Alex Ross desde sus inicios cuando destacaba su habilidad para el dibujo. Se muestran sus mejores comics como Kingdom come, Justice, Superman Peace in the earth, Uncle Sam y mucho más. También hay un pequeño portafolio de los trabajos de su madre, gran ilustradora publicitaria de los '70. Este gran artista, que es comparado en la cultura Americana con Norman Rockwell por la calidad realista de sus ilustraciones y el detalle en cada pieza de arte. GREAT BOOK!!! Recomendado.

From story board to stunning completed product, an overview of Mr.Ross' DC comics work, focusing particularly on the big three; Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman, with loving attention to the rest of the JLA as well.
Lots of beautiful 'work in progress to completion' pictures and even a few that never got to see the go light of editors.
Inspirational for the new painter or seasoned storybook artist - makes quite the case for gouache!
Please note! this is NOT an 'origins' book or even a story, this is meant to specifically address the artwork itself and the processes by which it is done.
By the by, many a comic book irritates me no end with its sexist imagery -this book is a rare exception in supehero comics.
None of the women are bimboes and the men are, dare I say, as beautiful as the ladies.
For my part, the explanations of the new Kingdom Come versions of the classic DC cast were the finest aspect of this book.
If you're at all a fan of Alex Ross' incredible way with a brush, you must own this, if only for the most drool worthy versions of beloved heroes.
If you love the classic DC pantheon, you need this book, 'nuff said!
