The Art of X-Men 2 by Timothy Shaner
The X-Men are back in the cinema. Wolverine, Professor X, Cyclops, Jean Grey and the rest of the team return in X2, facing a new threat so dangerous that former enemy Magneto must join their ranks to defeat it. This companion book features hundreds of photographs and design drawings, compiled with full access to the movie's production team. It includes an exclusive interview with director Bryan Singer, a lengthy overview section (featuring portrait photographs, costume designs and original comic strip art) and a scene-by-scene breakdown of the movie, looking in detail at the sets and effects, with text from the movie's production designer, Guy Hendricks-Dyas and also with contributions from Peter Sanderson and Richard Siklos.
