Description

Essays at the life and career of one of the vital greatest comic book creators: the maddest artist in Mad magazine, the person at the back of Marvel’s Daredevil, and self-publishing pioneer.

Bursting with a cornucopia of gorgeous artwork and photos, this volume features a captivating Rashomonlike choice of vivid remembrances by Wood’s friends, colleagues, assistants, and family members. While they explore the playful spirit and psychological twists of this complicated maverick of American pop culture, they frankly discuss his struggles with censorship and alcoholism and his slide into the realm of pornography. Carefully compiled over more than three decades by Wood assistant Bhob Stewart, The Life and Legend of Wallace Wood Volume 2 completes this remarkably revealing and intimate portrait of a legendary comics author. Contributors include Larry Hama, John Workman, Trina Robbins, Paul Krassner, Flo Steinberg, Tom Sutton, Bill Pearson, Tatjana Wood, and Paul Levitz. A special tribute gallery includes artwork by Robert Crumb, Dan Clowes, Michael T. Gilbert, Al Feldstein, Dave Sim, Michael Cho, Drew Friedman, and Marie Severin. Full-color illustrations all the way through.
