Starting off with the BIG one...

As every Crivvie is sure to know, I'm a hugely-respected artistic figure within the comics community, being every bit as talented in one aspect of the field as another. Writer, artist, letterer - you name it, I can do it - but one thing I'm even greater at is my ability to type sh*te with my tongue in my cheek and a straight face*. So getting back to the real world, I thought I'd show you some of the books in my collection that are designed to help aspiring artists fulfill their potential, as well as their dreams and ambitions. (In my case, they made an exception.)
No further comment from me is necessary, as I've included the back cover spiel so that you can read for yourselves what they're all about. I've got a couple more lying around somewhere, which I'll add whenever I stumble across them (now done). Incidentally, the ripples on Will Eisner's book are on the clear protective sleeve over the dustjacket, not the dustjacket itself. Wouldn't want you to worry that I've got a less-than-perfect copy (autographed too) on my bookshelf.
Now - unleash the books of art!
(*Slightly amended as I don't think readers got the humour in the opening paragraph.)
