Kyle Baker may well be the funniest man in comics. With books like The
Cowboy Wally Show, Why I Hate Saturn, Plastic Man, and The
Bakers on his resume, along with four (of his eight) Eisner Awards in the
"Best Writer/Artist Humor" category, it's hard to argue against him. But he does
serious, too — and you can't get much more serious than Nat Turner.
He is the all-around cartoonist — he can write, pencil, ink, and color
with the best of them. His work has appeared in such diverse publications as
The New York Times, Esquire, Rolling Stone, and Mad.
Without question, Kyle Baker is a Modern Master, and this book presents a
career-spanning interview and discussion of his creative process, plus plenty of
rare and unseen art, including an 8-page color section, and a gallery of
commissioned work!
