A lovely collection of lovely illustrations…
I’m a big fan of Russell Dauterman’s work. The Marvel artist’s fluid style captures heroes and villains with a modern eye but retains the classic nature of why these characters endure.
That’s just a fancy way of saying it’s beautiful stuff.
Well, if you’re a fan like me, then, Clover Press is crowdfunding The Marvel Art of Russell Dauterman, featuring the best of his published work, as well as never-before-seen images.
“Since I saw X-Men: The Animated Series as a seven-year-old, I’ve loved the X-Men,” Russell sez. “That show led me to a love of Marvel Comics and to a career as a comic book artist. I’m so grateful to work for Marvel and to draw the characters I’ve loved for nearly my whole life. I’m beyond thrilled to share that art in this book.”
The project is being funded via Kickstarter but to give you a taste of what’s in store, dig this li’l ol’ EXCLUSIVE — a run of illustrations set to be in the books:
According to Clover Press, the campaign will feature exclusives such as a 1,000-piece Women of Marvel puzzle; Hellfire Gala and X-Men 24” x 36” posters; an X-Men trading cards set; and collectible stickers, as well as the 216-page 9″ x 12″ high-end coffee table book and five fantastic 11″ x 17″ prints — the ones you see above, plus one of the cover.
Here’s more superb art to check out:
“The Marvel Art Of…” books are a series of boutique art books that showcase modern Marvel masters. The series debuted in 2023 with The Marvel Art of David Mack, The Marvel Art of Alex Maleev, and The Marvel Art of David Nakayama, all of which will be available as add-ons in the new campaign.
As part of the campaign, Clover Press will offer a signed edition of The Marvel Art of Russell Dauterman, a signed edition with remarque, and a limited edition exclusive slipcase.
