Fun fast read.
Not very deep but picks are on point.
Many sexy reprints.

Only pieces of the specific cartooners works like two pages from that series and that cover from that series or poster and a biography before the artist work are presented.

First out come Spirits creator and of all contributors I especially liked Frank Bellamy's Roman vs Celts page (Heros the Spartan) that I must try to find its source. Also the covers on Mutant World and Midnight battle by Richard Corben which looks like some oldscool fantasy covers from Sword & Sorcery.
The next artist, Barry Windsor-Smith, are headalong into Sword & Sorcery by sketching Marvels comic-adaptation of Conan the barbarian and from what I see he does it Good!
i recognice a lot of those artist or more some of their works that Ive read and I didn't expext it but I like that, take Philippe Deiullet whom read earlier today abd he does fabtastic artwork and are a real favorite of mine. wallice wood is another of my favorites artists even if I havent read a lot of his work but I like this style in mostly his historical works but also series like pipsqueak papers (witzend 3, 1967) and other stories he have written.

I'd like to have my copy again, but, otherwise, this is an early, superficial summary.
