In 1987, a year after Watchmen and Dark Knight Returns turned
comics grim and gritty, artist Kevin Maguire proved that comics could still be
fun, with the release of the "all-new" Justice League. His style was the
perfect match for the humorous dialogue and character-driven stories, and the
unlikely series quickly developed a large following. But the glue that held the
series together was Maguire's ability to convey emotion on the page. The Justice
League, Captain America, the X-Men, the Defenders... they are all actors on
Maguire's stage, and he directs them with the ability of a true Modern Master.
This new volume in the Modern Masters series features a career-spanning
interview and tons of artwork, including a large gallery section featuring many
rare and unpublished sketches and finished pieces.
