Dynamite delights in THE ART OF HOWARD CHAYKIN - ComicList

Media Release -- Legendary for what he has done on the page and infamous for what he has said off it, Howard Chaykin ranks among the superstars of modern comics. In The Art of Howard Chaykin, written by Robert Greenberger, go behind the scenes with the creator whose pioneering works include American Flagg!, The Shadow, Batman, New Avengers, Dominic Fortune, Black Kiss and more. Experience the stories of Howard Chaykin's life as only he can tell them. Filled with no-holds-barred perspective from his longtime friends and colleagues, and featuring an extensive selection of artwork from throughout his career, including many never-before-published pieces from Chaykin's own archives, The Art of Howard Chaykin takes readers on an in-depth journey from the 1970s to today with one of the medium's great storytellers.

"Big thanks to everybody at Dynamite for the incredibly flattering job they've done, making me look good in this volume," stated Howard Chaykin. "Since I'm always willing to mistake attention for affection, I'm basking in the love."

"At a time when many fresh new art styles while gracing the pages of comics, there was a boldness to Howard Chaykin's figures that set him apart," states The Art of Howard Chaykin writer Robert Greenberger. "He carved his own path, first as an artist, then as a writer exploring the limits of what can be done in graphic arts, informed by the great illustrators that came before him. Like his work, the man is larger-than-life filled with provocative observations that are always informed and defensible. Getting to know him has never been less than fascinating and getting to write his story was an opportunity to learn more about what him tick."

"Howard Chaykin is a good friend and is an unparalleled creator in the comics medium," says Dynamite President and Publisher Nick Barrucci! "We made sure to pull out all the stops to make this the definitive guide for Chaykin fanatics everywhere. Also, having a Brian Michael Bendis forward and afterward by Walter Simonson is just icing on the cake!"?
