	SoYouWanna be a comic book artist? \| SoYouWanna.com
		Breaking into the comic book biz is just like breaking into show biz - you're up against a whole field of aspiring wannabes who think they're the next Tom Cruise (or, in the case of comics, the next Jim Lee).
		Comic books are a visual storytelling medium (think of it as a page-by-page translation of a movie or TV show), so editors have no need for one-dimensional pin-up machines.
		For paper, we suggest you use 10" x 15" Bristol paper (this is the standard size for comic book art, which is later shrunk down to comic book size).

	Alan Moore - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He is the co-creator of some of the most acclaimed comic books in history, including Watchmen, V for Vendetta, From Hell and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
		Comics artist Bryan Talbot, whose The Adventures of Luther Arkwright anticipated the adult comics movement, is also undoubtedly a major influence.
		Moore's original strip for the British Warrior comic was designed as an homage to the spirit of the British Boys Adventure comics of the 1950s and 60s as well as referencing literary sources such as George Orwell and the libertarianism of William Blake.

	Alex Toth Interview - Comic Book Artist #10 - TwoMorrows Publishing
		Few artists of his calibre contemplate and study the art form as intensely—and with such obvious love for the form—as our interview subject, as passionate (and often, angry) today as he was as one of the first true comics fans back in the late 1930s and early '40s.
		CBA had the pleasure of interviewing the artist in his Hollywood home in February 2000 and Alex copyedited the transcript.
		CBA: But you were able to take your love of that and put it into the comic book medium.

		We are providing a forum for artists, scholars, collectors and the public to appreciate great art, and to recognize that they're not alone in their suspicions about the emptiness of modern and postmodern art.
		If you are an artist who works in the realist tradition (read the Arc Philosophy for a definition of this term, and an explicit statement of our principles) then feel free to notify us of your exhibitions.
		These books are reprinted for the uses of students, practitioners and advocates of the classical painting tradition, and all those interested in furthering their knowledge of the craft of picture-making as it was practiced from the time of the old masters, up until the ateliers of the 19th century.

	Comic creator: George Evans
		George Evans, an artist from Harwood, Pennsylvania, debuted in the illustration field, and attended the Scranton Art School afterwards.
		When Fawcett folded, he was brought over to EC Comics by Al Williamson, where he was hired immediately in 1953.
		Thanks to his technical knowledge of airplanes and machinery, Evans quickly became Kurtzman's favorite on 'Two Fisted Tales' and 'Frontline Combat', yet Evans preferred the freedom of working with Feldstein on the EC horror and SF titles 'The Haunt of Fear' and 'Weird Science'.

	Jim Aparo Interview - Comic Book Artist #9 - TwoMorrows Publishing
		Comic Book Artist: You started later in life than the average comics artist, so let's start off with what you did before comics.
		CBA: There's one Phantom story you did with a jet plane in a storm and it's striking because a few panels were printed in fl-and-white.
		CBA: When I was a kid and drawing homemade comics, I used to draw your ties, and when I got a job in a grocery store, I had to wear a tie.

	Comic Book Artist issue #7
		CBA: One of the real ironies is that kung fu was yet another trend that Marvel was so apt to jump on in the early '70s, and you guys were able to mold something really interesting and lasting out of that.
		CBA: You mentioned in one of the interviews that while Doug was interested in pursuing the philosophical aspects of Shang-Chi, that you were more interested maybe in the action.
		CBA: At the same time, Marvel's corporate star was rising like nothing before; they were the number one comics publisher, they were getting TV shows made of their stuff, and they really looked hot to investors.

	Favorite Comic Book Artist - Page 8 - Revision3 Forums
		Yeah, it does kind of suck that when we speak of comic book artists it is pretty much only artists from the big two.
		Sometimes when an artist is working with dead lines they aren't given time to experiment and thats not usually what fans and editors expect from them.
		The only emotion that you were supposed to feel through the whole comic was "oh man, this is a huge deal", and it came off like that b/c of Alex Ross' iconic paintings that look like a mighty hero standing on top of a mountain.

		If you're an aspiring comic book artist, breaking into the industry can be tough; being a great artist isn't always enough.

	Please, Sir, I Want Some Moore - The lazy British genius who transformed American comics. By Douglas Wolk
		Even so, he's dismissed the "grim and gritty" school of comics writing he fathered as the unwanted result of "a bad mood I was in 15 years ago," and his recent work is much lighter in tone.
		Moore's debut, in the early '80s, roughly coincided with the rise of the independent comics movement and the schism between the mainstream (the superhero genre-fiction comics industry) and indie publishers (which concentrate on cartoonist "auteurs" who both write and draw).
		Meanwhile, Moore and artist David Lloyd returned to finish their incomplete early project V for Vendetta, recently adapted into a screenplay by The Matrix's Wachowski brothers.

		Readers are taken on a mystical journey throughout the cosmos to find a number of super heroes engaged in defending the human race of the 31st Century from Martian invasions, evil banshees and any number of bad-news perpetrators.
		According to Gallagher, topics discussed in the stories, such as the Book of Kells, or places, such as NewGrange, and catch phrases written in Gaelic, contribute to the educational value of the comic spread.

	COMIC BOOK ARTIST POPULATES MOVIES
		DC Comics awarded Siegel and Shuster a pension in 1978 and restored their credit as creators in order to quiet the stink the then-destitute originators of the daddy of all superheroes were raising around the release of the "Superman" movie, but the company emphasized that it was under no legal obligation to do so.
		If comic book companies are prepared to fight to keep their characters, it's not just to keep profits high.
		Comic book shops are going out of business across the country, and the big comic companies might have followed suit had they not changed their focus to exploiting their trademarks in toys, T-shirts, TV shows, games and movies.

	SoYouWanna be a comic book artist? \| SoYouWanna.com
		Yes, putting out your very own small press comic is a monstrous undertaking, and only the most industrious soul should even consider it.
		Not only does self-publishing involve many non-creative aspects of comic book production, it also requires a decent amount of start-up capital, so having a good financial base is a necessity.
		Opting to create your own book means shifting many of the responsibilities of production (typically associated with the business side of the industry) onto the creative team.

	Comic Book artist's booklist - updated 12 03 2000
		This book is about animated cartoons, but it is also quite useful for cartoonists and comic artists.
		The book is full of great advice and information about composition and staging, but the most fascinating aspect is where they give several of the instructors the same scene to draw.
		While some of it may be outdated already by the turbulent nature of the industry (several of the publishers and distributors she cites are history), she offers much practical insight, and quotes many seasoned pros on different industry aspects.

		You are looking at his art from his sketch book, and yes you can see his style of art.
		The entire book consist of little tiny sketches he did while watching an exercise tape.
		Also, if you're considering this for a younger artist, several of the sketches have annotation that they were drawn from a "stripper" tape and are somewhat provocative both in content and "clever quips" as commentary by the artist; inappropriate to my way of thinking.

		Of course, that depends on whether the comic takes off in the way Sciortino’s agent envisions: “This is going to be bigger than the Beatles,” he boasted as we were drinking in his office.
		Certainly few comic strips since have been as sharp and visceral as Elementary Classical Analysis, but it is also true that many never take on the hard-hitting matters you wrestle with.
		Much of the comic seems to be based on mundane aspects of human interaction, particularly awkward or uninteresting conversations.
