DAVE STEVENS' THE ROCKETEER Artist's Edition

A very special book honoring the work of this esteemed creator. This Artist's Edition is a mammoth hardcover book printed in glorious black and white. Nearly every page in The Rocketeer has been scanned in color from Stevens' original art to ensure the best possible reproduction and highest degree of accuracy. Printed on uncoated stock and at the same size as the original art, Dave Stevens' The Rocketeer: Artist's Edition is the next best thing to holding the actual art by Dave Stevens. These are the stories that helped to bring Bettie Page back into national fame, and also resulted in her actually re-surfacing after years of questions about where she had gone. Dave would eventually get to know her and become one of her most trusted friends. Meanwhile, as one of the very finest artists in modern comics, Dave was creating exciting adventure that rivals the best we've ever seen by artist icons like Jim Steranko, Russ Heath and even Frank Frazetta. And that is no exaggeration. Much like Mark Schultz channeled Frazetta and Williamson into his own style that is so widely admired today, Dave also grew up admiring these masters. Dave's artwork was inspired by them and is as exciting as the best work by these giants of comic art. And you can really, really see that right here in these stunningly well-reproduced pages.
