Book Reviews of Modern Masters Volume 17: Lee Weeks (Modern Masters (TwoMorrows Publishing))

Book Review: Packed with Info and Art, a Great Value
Summary: 5 Stars

I just finished plowing through this "Modern Masters" volume, my third after John Byrne's and Mike Wieringo's. All three have been fantastic.

This TwoMorrows series of profiles is an excellent value on two counts:

First, each one I've read consists entirely of fresh interview material, not others writing *about* the profiled artist. The interviews are substantial and long, and you'll feel indulged and satisfied as you read them.

Second, there's more than enough artwork included to give a well-rounded view of the artist's strengths and style. These are black and white books, and are not really intended to showcase the art in the same way a nicer volume might. But you get a WEALTH of great information and insight for a great price.

So, it's a great series. But this volume in particular was a treat, because I knew very little about Lee Weeks going into it. I enjoyed the story of his long journey into an accomplished career as a professional comic artist, and especially his sharing about his Christian faith. I appreciated his transparency, and his obvious enthusiasm for his work. He's gained a new fan.

I'll definitely be buying more books from this series in the future, and I highly recommend the three I've read.

Summary of Modern Masters Volume 17: Lee Weeks (Modern Masters (TwoMorrows Publishing))

Lee Weeks is the consummate storyteller. Over the course of his twenty-five-year-plus career, he has proven this again and again. His ability to create dynamic, interesting layouts, plus his strong draftsmanship, and wonderful sense of lighting made his runs on Daredevil, Captain America, Spider-Man: Death and Destiny (which he also wrote) and The Incredible Hulk fan favorites, and his artwork for Batman Chronicles: The Gauntlet is among the most finely crafted in the character s history. Join us as we go behind the scenes and explore the work of a Modern Master: Lee Weeks! This 128-page book features an exhaustive look into Week s career and creative process, with a career-spanning interview with tons of art, including many rare and unpublished pieces, and a huge gallery of stunning artwork by this true Modern Master! By Tom Field and Eric Nolen-Weathington.
