A good instruction book to learn how to draw heroes and villains
'The Art of Comic Book Drawing' by Maury Aasent, Bob Berry, Jim Campbell, Dana Muise, & Joe Oesterle is and art instruction book with a superhero theme and lots of character ideas.The book starts with looks at tools and materials, digital illustration, and drawing basics. Then building out body parts like heads, bodies, feet and hands, along with how bodies look in motion. There are are 10 hero and villain breakdowns to get practice in for creating your own characters and the book finishes up with things like story segment and speech bubbles.There are quite a few art books out there and some better ones on creating a finished comic project, but for the casual artist who wants to dabble, this isn't a bad step at all. The basics are here and lay a decent foundation.I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Quarto Publishing Group ā Walter Foster, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.

The book doesn't have a clear focus on cartooning vs comic book art.
For a book that is called "The Art of Comic Book Drawing" it offers more directions for cartooning rather than comic art. The eyes, nose and mouth section only show examples of cartooning techniques, and it does not even cover how to achieve these drawings.The actual pages devoted to how to ink, draw, and create comic book art is around 20. Many pages are just there for you to practice cartooning in.

As with many people today, Iām obsessed with superhero movies and shows. When I saw this book on learning how to draw them, I decided to check it out. Iām not artistic at all, but this book made it look easy to learn the basics on how to draw such characters. I really liked looking through it. I highly recommend.**I voluntarily read and reviewed this book
