It leads one to wonder: What makes them so captivating? Is it our fascination over their superhuman powers and embodiment of incorruptible virtue? Or how they gloriously fight and emerge from gruesome battles? Or is it simply the prowess of the storyteller to enchant readers? The superhero saga revolves around an inevitable clash between good and evil. Though we ultimately look forward to and aspire for the triumph of good, it is really about the journey they tread and the battles they conquer that lure us. In a nutshell, the success of the story relies mainly on the exploits, the skirmishthe action. One word that says it all. Precisely the word that brings together superheroes, villains, and comic aficionados. Thus, the need to learn how to draw figures in motion. In essence, drawing figures in motion involves two aspects: emotions and body movement. We tackle both in the Drawing Superheroes in Action series. In Book I, we explored the essentials of illustrating and inducing the right emotions in each panel. Now, we move on to Book II, where we advance to the second aspect: body movement. Previously, we also discussed how body language plays a significant role in communicating thoughts and feelings. In the succeeding pages, we will delve deeper into the spatial and anatomical minutiae that affect even the slightest of gestures. Before wrapping up, we take on another challenge. We will put all that we have learned into practice by crafting yet another comic strip. With our journey through the comic cosmos nearing its end, here are a few but timely parting words to remember: Fortune favors the bold.

This book was released on 2017-08-21 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Table of Contents Introduction Benefits of Proper Amounts of Salt The Substitution and Usage of Rock salt Ancient Thai medicine And Diet Crystallized and Refined Sugars Proper Ancient Thai Good Health Diet Bleached and Refined White Flour Margarine and Hydrogenated Oil Artificial Milk Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction I was just fixing lunch, listening to a 1954 old-time radio program, starring Dick Powell. Richard Diamond was sponsored by Camel Cigarettes. I was shocked to hear that this radio program was telling about 198 million – yes, I have got the figures right – cigarettes, being sent to Army, Navy, and Air Force hospitals and camps, free of cost. The idea was to get men and women addicted to cigarettes. 138,781 doctors were supposedly asked about the brand of cigarettes they smoked in a cross-country nationwide survey, and they said “Camels.” No wonder the natural good health of a whole nation began deteriorating through deliberate misinformation given out by multibillion-dollar tobacco industries – smoke this mild cigarette for 30 days and you are not going to suffer from any throat irritation. Superstars smoke Camels, including Dick Powell. They of course did not tell you that Dick Powell died of tobacco addiction, tobacco poisoning, and cancer. I am surprised they did not start up a campaign for harmless "smokies" for your babies, keep them well occupied with a cigarette in their mouths… But I think that would have been a bit too much for even a credulous public to swallow, no pun intended. People finally came to their senses in the 80s, and decided to stop smoking. Even though the insidious propaganda and advertisements of this multibillion dollar industry still continues. But then man has always been self-destructive and nobody can teach him otherwise. This book is for all those people, who want to know something about the harmful long-term effects of refined foods, including salt and sugar, and how you can live a healthy life, without these poisons in your diet.

The ancient pyramids alone have captivated scientists, historians, and globetrotters for centuries. This country developed one of the most advanced civilizations that have passed on a rich trove of marvelous works and invaluable knowledge to succeeding generations. Exceedingly bountiful indeed, that to this day, much of the pyramids remain subject for further scientific exploration. For the inquisitive mind, it is worth taking note that Egypt also appears in the Bible. Perhaps the most well-known passages are those within the stories of Jacob and Moses. However, the tie that binds the two nations and major world religions, reaches as far back as to Abraham. The Islam Prophet Ishmael was the first-born of Abraham, to Hagar. Sarah, Abraham’s first wife, could not bear children and offered her Egyptian servant to him.
