| | Amazon.ca: Comic Books And Other Necessities Of Life: Books: Sergio Aragones,Mark Evanier (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) |
 | | Like a lot of guys who came of age in the 1960's, comic books were the defining literature of my childhood. |
 | | Since Evanier is that rare person who has, at one time or another, done all of those things, the book also serves as a de facto memoir of the author's storied life as a collector, creator and curator of inexpensive four color fantasies. |
 | | In a string of affectionate and knowing profiles of comic art luminaries like Jack Kirby, William M. Gaines and Carl Barks, Evanier makes a pretty convincing argument that these flesh and blood artists, and others like them, are the real comic book heroes, not the four color figments these guys brought to life. |
