An Excellent “Get-Started-In-Drawing” Book
By Hank Robbins
Christopher Hart’s contributions to the How-To-Draw genre have been excellent. This is the second good book that I bought concerning drawing (I bought it a few years ago when I first renewed my interest in drawing). Though a little on the scattered side (it includes a little on everything!) this book is great for beginners and those artists who want to polish their art with a little bit of added nuance and panache. Check out his How To Draw Comic Book Bad Guys and Gals as well (These books go in tandem). Happy reading!

A book mostly on what is appealing in a comic
By joe_ shmoe
This book is bad for beginners. It says to start out with a stick figure. Good. It says stay loose with your drawing. Good. 8 pages on the head and nothing on muscles. BAD. A person would be able to draw a good head, but thats it. The book gives helpful suggestions on what type of characters make a good comic book and how to make the panel look good. If you want anatomy get the marvel book with the tools, you’ll be drawing better in no time. then come back and get this one for making an book.

Operative manual about american superheroes
By A
It is like some sort of “How to draw comics the marvel way” but its pictures are very much appealing. This book tells you in a deeper way how to draw superheroes in the american way. As you should know there are some other styles like “Manga” (japanese comic style) and european comics (which are most intelectual and uses a non conventional or a very common commercial style).

Pictures in this book are very impressive and I think it really worth for those newcomer artists who really likes the american style.
