Growing up I idealized Miller's early work (DareDevil,Wolverine) but absolutely hated Miller's later work. As I have grown as an artist, I have began to embrace his reductive and more exaggerated style. You really have to look at pages in their original form to appreciate an artist's mastery.. this definitive addition is what turned me from a Hater to a lover of his work on DKR.
Thank you for the vid, sir. Respectfully, if you'll allow me, just a couple corrections; the tape at 4:20 is actually a registration mark or crosshairs used to align the art with the color plates during printing. And the "stat" at 4:47 is referring to the pasted up panel at 4:57; it is a photostat of the panel under which "stat" is written.
I have this book and it's also one of my prized possessions. I was fortunate enough to get the signed edition. Regardless, the book itself is awesome. Thanks for the review. 😃
Thank you so much for sharing!!! Thats def awesome to see for any artist...i am working on a book now, so i was very inspired! Hopefully Santa will bring me my own copy!!! Awesoomme video!!
One of my prized possessions. This book is beautiful. IDW's Artist's Editions (Most notably the Fantastic Four volumes featuring Jack Kirby as well as John Byrne's full-sized art work ) are equally gorgeous.
They used the "blue line" method, where the black and white art was transferred in non-photographic blue onto illustration board. Then the color artist would paint over those blue lines in the medium of their choice, water color, gouache, acrylic, Prismacolor, you name it.
I have researched the sin city series for a long time, it seems he used pencil and red marker to lay out his sketches then used india ink and white ink to fill in the shadows and white areas, a mystery still but im pretty sure he went over the black with white and vice versa. Check out "the art of sin city"...its a great book, helps get inside the mind of a master.
the giant format is awesome, the cover is neat, the hardcover is the best part, but I need color. Especially for The Batman; his ICONIC midnight blue, burning yellow, smooth grey, etc. Thnx for vid!

I wonder if we'll ever get a Batman Year One by Frank Miller in a Gallery Edition format.

How do they color their comic back in a day?
They made a photo stat of each pages and colored it simple same as to do artist make copies of their original art work pages .
And color them all in.
mostly water color...or even marker or colored inks

You seem to know alot about frank, do you know anything about the sin city novels? id like to know what paper,pens etc was used by him.
I've read all the Sin City books, but I'm not an expert. He has had many different phases in his career, and there is no way to summarize it easily.
NOIRMASKSFX its not a novel its a GRAPHIC novel bitch!!!!!
