Drawn to Beauty The Life and Art of Vincent Colletta

This is the infamous Vince Colletta’s life story as a key part of the golden age of comics, as told by his son, with hundreds of illustrations, in colour and black and white, displaying his controversial style as inker and artist. For some, Colletta was a too-swift hack, for others, he drew the most beautiful women, and men, in comics, especially in the romance genre. Regardless, Colletta was best known for his many years at Marvel, where his influence was arguably larger than other, better known stars. This handsome, hardcover collector’s edition is sure to be on the Christmas list of every comic collector, and as such, should sell out its first edition quickly.
