Book The Blighted Eye

Download or read book The Blighted Eye written by Glenn Bray and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2014-01-30 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Blighted Eye is the most copious, the most diverse, and the most lavish compilation of original comic art ever published ― all from the mind-boggling collection of Glenn Bray. Bray was an enthusiast of marginal or outsider American pop culture when he started to collect original comic art in 1965 ― a time when very few people, including the artists themselves, truly valued the original art. Bray has, over the last nearly 50 years, amassed the most eclectic collection of original comic art in private hands. The book features work by a pantheon of cartooning masters, including Charles Addams, Carl Barks, Charles Burns, Al Capp, Dan Clowes, Jack Cole, R. Crumb, Jack Davis, Kim Deitch, Will Elder, Al Feldstein, Virgil Finlay, Drew Friedman, Chester Gould, Justin Green, Rick Griffin, Bill Griffith, Matt Groening, George Grosz, V.T.

Clay Wilson, Basil Wolverton, Wallace Wood, Jim Woodring, Art Young, and ― it should go without saying ― many more.

As he struggles to find a film project as worthy as himself, we are introduced to a dazzling cast of characters that take us from the battlefields of France to the Russian Revolution and from the budding glamour of Hollywood to madcap Wild West shows. The result is a spellbinding novel about dreams, ambition, and the birth of modern America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

More About This is as Bad as it Gets French cartoonist Voutch offers a cartoon cocktail that's equal parts art, cynicism, humor, and tenderness. * Filled with snide doctors, newfangled technologies, relentless media, communication faux pas, unreasonable bosses, and dysfunctional relationships, this stateside offering of Voutch's most popular French cartoons leaves nothing lost in translation. * Employing the sophisticated art style gouache, which differs from watercolor in that its use of pigments is heavier and more opaque with greater reflective qualities, Voutch is as enjoyable to view as it is to read.
