I was the only kid on my block with a copy of How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way When I was young, every little boy I knew wanted to draw comics (these days many little girls do too, and that’s awesome) but I had a serious advantage over all of them. If you want to bond with your teen, pick up some packing paper and a comic book! Worked wonders for us :) He drew the majority while I helped with the mouths and hands. I know there are boys and girls out there that will eat this book up.Ī great manual for the artists of tomorrow.Ībove is the completed picture that my son and I were working on.

Lately, my son and I have been bonding over superheros and while I don't have the attention-span to draw the Marvel Way. While, I'm not an artist, it was super fun to go through and see all the techniques. It shows you what artists at Marvel strive to do to make their comic books and panels stand out for the enjoyment of the reader.Ī very interesting book that I think would be awesome for any kid 13+, it shows you what you need to do to improve at your craft. IT shows you how to ink, draw action, start with stick figures, where to position, and what draws attention.

Well, I thought it was going to show me how to draw Spidey and Shellhead, and Cap.īut no. It's a step by step guide on how to draw THE MARVEL WAY!! It's not a step by step guide on how to draw characters. If you are looking for a book that will show you how to draw The Mighty Thor, Spiderman, The Incredible Hulk, or even Captain America's Shield.
