The Art of Brian Bolland.Un recorrido por la obra del genio inglés, desde sus inicios (infancia), hasta el año 2004, aproximadamente. Deleite para los ojos, con algunas páginas a lápiz, sus tintas (la mayoría), y a color (entiendo que las que él mismo haya coloreado).Casi 300 páginas a un precio razonable en Amazon (cuando los álbumes bajan repentinamente), que merece tener en la estantería de los fans del autor y por supuesto con jugosos extras contados por él mismo en primera persona (reconozco que no todo lo llego a entender pues está en inglés).Recomiendo muy mucho, y si pillas a precio asequible, mejor.Un 8/10

Pretty much like my recent reading "Starlin's Words & Pictures", this amazeballs, massive ArtBook celebrates the Life (as it is also written from his own perspective) and Achievements (largely his collaborations and commissions, along with remarkable outtakes and unused stuff) this gifted British has developed throughout his 30+ years comic book career. Bolland's collection of creations is impressive. An iconic illustrator, this book serves as an extraordinary blueprint for learning the proper crafts (either amateurs or AB lovers) in a classic way (feasibly from scratch). Because he details the whole process required: input to output. Some phenomenal (even rare) pieces of Brian's Art can be found here (notoriously in B&W). His 2000 AD and DC production is amply illustrated (sho' nuff with the meaning!!) but I really dig the Covers section (since BB™ is a beast when it comes down to page composition). Categorally, another essential and noteworthy compilation of fine works from a MASTER.
