Re: Art Books

yeah, I got my copy a couple of weeks ago. It's a really nice coffee table book with great pics of WW art past and present by the likes of Adam Hughes, George Perez, Terry Dodson, Phil Jimenez, and other greats from WW past. This book isn't an art book per se, but more of a biography with great pics and splash pages that covers WW's history from the beginning. There's nothing new that you haven't read about WW before and the art is stuff we've seen before but it's a great WW companion for fans to have.
Also coming up is "The Essential Wonder Woman Encyclopedia" from Del Rey

here's the paperback cover

and here's the Previews exclusive hardcover

Re: Art Books

Huh it was there yesterday. Let's try again

It's a Previews/Diamond exclusive, meaning it will be available through most Comic Shops and specialty retailers.

Re: Art Books

Re: Art Books

For the encyclopedia? I don't really know yet but I have the hardcover on preorder so I'll try to post pics when I get it (if I remember) lol
but the contents are the same just a different cover and binding of course.

Re: Art Books

Speaking of Wonder Woman, does anyone have the Masterpiece books put out by Chronicle? They're nice but take up too much space.



I couldn't find good pics of the Superman and WW editions.

Re: Art Books

I remember seeing that on clearance somewhere but no I never did pick it up.

I picked up the Superman one on clearance years ago. And I was able to get the Batman and WW ones off ebay pretty cheaply.

Re: Art Books

Have all of those too cept I don't have the Mythology HC just the paperback. On a related note I got my ship notice from Amazon for The Essential Wonder Woman Encyclopedia and the Art of Iron Man 2 HC. Woot!!

Re: Art Books

I also ordered the Art of Iron man 2 HC...along with the art of Iron man 1 TPB, finally gave up trying to find that one in a HC and not pay a fortune for it.

but it says the iron man2 isn't available for shipment until june, so i'll be getting my WW hero, icon book and the iron man 1 book first, like in a couple of days.

Re: Art Books
