Drawing Crime Noir For Comics & Graphic Novels
by Christopher Hart
Aspiring artists, lonely, desperate—this is your chance to grab the gold ring of the hottest style around: noir. Windswept streets, dark shadowy figures, reckless women, gleaming pistols, men without conscience, boulevards of fear...they’re all here in Drawing Crime Noir. Extensive instruction, including a complete tutorial on how to turn an ordinary comic-book scene into a crime noir scene, shows how to create the moody world of noir, from using shadows to create intense moods and suspense, to drawing the swirling capes and cloaked faces of tormented superheroes; the trench coats and dark glasses of nihilistic antiheroes; the dark suits of mobbed-up politicians on the take and the hit men who keep order; and the form-fitting dresses and snakeskin shoes of the sexy women who would kill a man as soon as kiss him.

A lot of articles are written on the creative process of comics, but not nearly as many on the other side of the business: publishing.

He now shares his knowledge of the industry with anyone who has ever pondered doing the same. This six issue, mostly prose series is informative, entertaining, and a bit autobiographical. Blaylock isolates the six most important aspects of the process, starting with "Building Your Infrastructure."

Making Comics: Storytelling Secrets of Comics, Manga, and Graphic Novels
by Scott McCloud
In Making Comics, McCloud focuses his analysis on the art form itself, exploring the creation of comics, from the broadest principles to the sharpest details (like how to accentuate a character's facial muscles in order to form the emotion of disgust rather than the emotion of surprise.) And he does all of it in his inimitable voice and through his cartoon stand-in narrator, mixing dry humor and legitimate instruction. McCloud shows his reader how to master the human condition through word and image in a brilliantly minimalistic way.
