Steranko Nick Fury Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. Artisan Edition by Jim Steranko

Previously presented in the much-acclaimed Artist's Edition format, and winner of an Eisner Award, now you can appreciate this historic run of comics in the new Artisan Edition format.

In the mid-1960s, Jim Steranko burst into the Marvel Age of comics in a BIG way, and the innovative, cinematic techniques he introduced in his brief tenure at The House of Ideas stand to this day as a high-water mark in the history of graphic storytelling. More than any other series, Steranko is most associated with Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. This Artisan Edition collects the first 12 stories of Steranko's run, from Strange Tales #151-162, as well as his covers from these issues. Additionally, there will be a select number of extras presented. And, as usual, nearly all the pages have been scanned from the original art, from Steranko's private archives.

Story and art by Jim Steranko with additional script by Stan Lee and Roy Thomas. Additional Layouts by Jack Kirby.

AN ARTISAN EDITION PRESENTS COMPLETE STORIES WITH EACH PAGE SCANNED FROM THE ACTUAL ORIGINAL ART.

While appearing to be in black and white, each page was scanned in color to mimic as closely as possible the experience of viewing the actual original art--for instance, corrections, blue pencils, paste-overs, all the little nuances that make original art unique. Each page is printed the same size as drawn, and the paper selected is as close as possible to the original art board.

Craig Yoe has been dubbed the Indy Jones of comics historians by Vice magazine. According to Publisher Weekly, he is the archivist of the ludicrous and sublime, and his work is wonderful. The Onion deems him a comics master, and The Library Journal calls him a respected designer. He's a superb cartoonist and a comic book historian of the first water, according to BoingBoing. Yoe worked as a Creative Director at Nickelodeon and Disney before joining Jim Henson's Muppets as Creative Director/Vice President/General Manager. Craig has won an Eisner Award and the Society of Illustrators Gold Medal.
