Price: $65 + shipping (print only); $75 + shipping (print + ebook bundle) If you love newspaper comic strips, you will love my new book How Comics Were Made: A Visual History from the Drawing Board to the Printed Page. I’ve combined years of research and the diligent collection of unique comics printing artifacts with dozens of interviews with cartoonists, historians, and production people to tell the story of how a comic starts with an artist’s hand and makes its way through transformations into print and, more recently, onto a digital screen. Add the ebook for just $10. (The ebook can be purchased separately, too, via this link.) It features excerpts from interviews with Garry Trudeau, Lynn Johnston, Bill Watterson, Barbara Brandon-Croft, and many others, as well as never-before-seen installments and materials from Doonesbury, Peanuts, For Better or For Worse, and dozens and dozens of other cartoons. The book features a three-page foreword by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Michael Chabon. It includes a 14-page index. This 288-page, 8.25-by-10.5–inch full-color book ships within 2–3 business days of order. Find out much more at the book’s website.
