by Steve Martin At age 10, Steve Martin got a job selling guidebooks at the newly opened Disneyland. In the decade that followed, he worked in Disney's magic shop, print shop, and theater, and developed his own magic/comedy act. By age 20, studying poetry and philosophy on the side, he was performing a dozen times a week, most often at the Disney rival, Knott's Berry Farm. 'Obsession is a substitute for talent,' he has said, and Steve Martin's focus and daring - his sheer tenacity - are truly stunning. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

Sure, he may be in the eighth grade now and have a secret identity as Gilded, the world's only superhero, but that doesn't protect him from the Jammer's bullying or make him any more deserving of Josie's affection.

When the General steals the golden cape, Miles finds himself back at square one with no superpowers and no hope of escape.

No one has told the story of comic art in its own medium, until now. In Masterful Marks, top illustrators reveal how sixteen visionary cartoonists overcame massive financial, political, and personal challenges to create a new form of art that now defines our world. Superhero comics didn't exist until two teenagers from Cleveland created the first superhero of all time: Superman. Advertising artist Theodor Geisel released his first book in 1937 as Dr. Seuss, and children's literature was never the same. Charles M. Schulz's perseverance and passion gave the world Peanuts, the world's most famous comic strip. Featuring these tales, and profiling other giants, Masterful Marks illustrates how graphic storytelling became such a rich and popular medium. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
