Book Reviews of Berni Wrightson: A Look Back
Book Review: Truly Macabre!
Summary: 5 Stars
Though this book is rare, I'm suprised no one has written a review on this massive tome. Weighing in at 4.3 lbs., and 359 pages, this covers Bernie's stellar work from his early work prior to entering the realm Marvel and DC up to when the book was originally published in 1978.
This particular edition is the softcover with a copyright of 1979.
The chapter breakdown is as follows:
Introduction
Baltimore
The Comics
Swamp Thing
Purple Pictography
Towards Independence
The Monster Parade
Warren
Christopher Enterprises
Frankenstein
The Studio
The book is large, (9x12), which allows for generous repros of the subject matter.
I'd say about 90% of the book is b&w, which is nice, as it draws attention to Bernie's fantastic linework.
If you love Wrightson, or your art tastes run on the macabre side, do yourself a favor and add this one to your library. You won't be disappointed.
