It features one-to-one interviews with Curt Swan's family members as well as with comics legends Joe Kubert, Carmine Infantino, Murphy Anderson and others.. The artwork of Curt Swan (1920-1996) defined the look of "Superman" for over 30 years. Filled with iconic artwork, this biography traces the artist's career from its beginning on features like "Gangbusters" to his widespread regard as the Dean of American comics and, later, his frustrations with an industry that viewed his dignified work as unfashionable. His amazing skills of storytelling, draftsmanship and design brought a realism and sense of wonder to The Man of Steel's adventures, making them the best-selling comic books of their day

If it was Swan, that clinched it. Swan did most of the covers, but he couldn't do all the insides (there were seven ongo. Where's the stuff about Curt Swan? I thought this would have more info about Curt Swan's life but halfway through the book I find that they are still talking about which comics he did with which inker. While all of that is interesting, I have always wondered about Mr. Swan as a person. Who did he base his Superman on? What did he use for inspiration? One interesting piece of information is that he was self taught as an artist. WOW!I see now from the title that it says "a life in comics," b
