Book Reviews of Chuck Reducks: Drawing from the Fun Side of Life
Book Review: Not Bad
Summary: 3 Stars
I was a little disappointed with this tome. Maybe I was expecting the same vein as "Chuck Amuck" but at times the text rambled and wandered about. I loved the sketches, cells and other artwork, which is why I got this book in the first place. Its fascinating to watch a character develop both in the mind of the artist as well as on paper. Animated cartoons have come a LONG way from the 1920's and Jones played a TREMENDOUS part in bringing them up to quality. It's a shame we lost Chuck and it seems like there is really no one to fill in for him. But I doubt that anyone could, his work is that good. And sad to say, the current crop of cartoons being churned out now is FAR BELOW Jone's standards.
