About this product

Product Information

The artwork of Curt Swan (1920-1996) defined the look of Superman for over 30 years. His amazing skills of storytelling, draftsmanship and design brought a realism and sense of wonder to The Man of Steel's adventures, making them the best-selling comic books of their day. Filled with iconic artwork, this biography traces the artist's career from its beginning on features like Gangbusters to his widespread regard as the Dean of American comics and, later, his frustrations with an industry that began to view his classic, dignified work as unfashionable. This monograph features one-on-one interviews with Curt's family as well as with comics legends Joe Kubert, Carmine Infantino, Murphy Anderson and more.

  • His Art Defined Superman

    For various reasons, in various professions, some people get the headlines, while others who work quietly and diligently and accumulate a vast body of truly impressive work end up being less well-known and less-celebrated. With this book, the spotlight is turned on a truly deserving and underappreciated artist, Curt Swan. If we were talking baseball, this man should be in Cooperstown!

  • Curt Swan was the best there was.

    I’ve always been a. Huge fan of Curt Swan. He had such an amazing talent. I grew up reading dc comics and always enjoyed the way he portrayed Superman in particular.
