Will Eisner: Portrait Of A Sequential Artist
“Before Crumb…Before American Splendor…” In his remarkable 60-year career Eisner arguably did more than any to advance the medium. His egalitarian approach drove comics forward, from weekly strip (The Spirit, 1940) to the development of the graphic novel (A Contract With God, 1978). Made in collaboration with Eisner and his wife Ann, commentary on the great man comes from luminaries such as Art Spiegelman, Jack Kirby, Stan Lee, Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller, and novelists Michael Chabon and Kurt Vonnegut.
