News: Storyteller Already "Best Seller"? Plus Excerpt From Book |
I was surprised to find that Storyteller is #4 on today's "Best Sellers" list from dynamicforces.com, especially since Bret confirmed that they are not at print yet.
GEORGE PEREZ - STORYTELLER: THE FIRST 30 YEARS HC (2007)
In the meantime, I suggest those that's already pre-paid for the book to ask for their money back if you haven't already.
I have personally had problems with certain vaporware books that I will not buy until I actually see it in print.
The best solution is to wait until this website announced when it is available to buy.
Looking around DF's website, I stumbled upon this excerpt from the book:
>>>
"No one else could have done what George did," Wolfman exclaims. "His basic storytelling was so superior to anyone’s at the time... no one else could have come close to doing what he did."Since there were relatively few places within the issues for Perez to, as Wolfman says, "do what George does best, which is draw big pictures of incredible stuff," the artist brought his "wow-able" abilities to bear on Crisis’ covers.
Based on a request from Perez’s wife, who felt her husband was pushing himself too hard on the series, Wolfman suggested his artist draw a simple cover for Crisis’ fifth issue, an uncomplicated image featuring only three faces and two merging Earths.
The cover Perez submitted did contain two merging Earths—along with 96 faces. Once the artist got started, he simply couldn’t stop drawing; if he saw sufficient open space, he added another character’s head. He was having too much fun to stop.
