“… This volume … is basically Cartooning 101 for precocious kids … And it’s an invaluable resource for kids (like mine) who are always writing, always drawing, and always trying to marry the two.” This book will stay in my library for a long time, for both reference and inspiration." Comics: Easy As ABC will encourage you to put pencil to paper, and draw, draw, draw! In addition, educators, parents, and librarians will find invaluable information and resources on comics and literacy.

"Both newbies and graduates of Ed Emberley's classic manuals or, more recently, James Sturm and Co.'s Adventures in Cartooning series will find plenty of beneficial insights ("stick people aren't as easy as they look") and inspiration. “An idiosyncratic guide to drawing comics packs a lot of information into relatively few pages … offering readers a working vocabulary about what it is, exactly, that comics do… The mix of words and images effectively moves from entry-level techniques to difficult concepts as the book progresses.” Brunetti, with his crystalline design sense (think Chris Ware for kids) was the perfect choice to spearhead this project." … While it is conceptually ambitious, it doesn’t skimp on the details and small devices … highlighting that it’s the small things that bring individual style forward and make a comic tight and clear. This design allows kids to follow it step-by-step and evolve their skills (with lots of practice) or to jump around to the examples that most pique their interest. Comprehensive in its comics theory but pitched to its readership of young would-be cartoonists, this slim volume offers a new lesson on nearly every page. ★ "Toon books condenses the vast experience, talent, and child-friendly energy on display in its graphic novels into this comic-creation intensive. … Drawing guides have never been so appealing. ★ "This volume distills every major lesson a young doodler, comic book reader, or graphic novel enthusiast would ever need.

#EASY DRAWING FOR COMICS PROFESSIONAL#
Michael Jung is a mild-mannered freelance writer-for-hire, actor, and professional storyteller with a keen interest in pop culture, education, nonprofit organizations, and unusual side hustles. Nevertheless, every cartoonist, illustrator, or comic book artist should incorporate these strategies and habits into their creative routine at some point – making it more likely that their dreams can be better communicated through their best webcomic or independent graphic novel! Naturally, a beginning comic book artist isn’t going to learn everything he or she needs to know just from the tips and tricks above. While beginning cartoonists may not enjoy accepting criticism that points out their work’s shortcomings, Marzullo points out that sooner or later, a professional will point out flaws in an artist’s work, making it vital that they learn to take such critique sooner than later. The critique doesn’t have to come from a famous comic book artist (although many artists do seek out critiques from such artists at comic book conventions). Marzullo (and many other professional artists) encourage aspiring comic book artists, cartoonists, and illustrators to regularly seek and learn to take constructive criticism about their artwork and visual storytelling abilities.
