I love Ivan Reis' artwork. He is definitely one of may favorite comic book artist and not just for DC comics. I was a bit disappointed that this book just had a collected issues of the comics he has work on. I was expecting more sketches, concept art, spreads and character designs. Nevertheless the book is still filled with some of the best comic book art around.

this is a good book for a fan of ivan reis...
and for a comic colorist that love or want to approach mainstream dc comics style comics color and house style comics..
if youre finding a nice story HC comic ..maybe this is not for you.
but for study purpose this is good enough..there's many artwork of ivan reis in various type colored and BW... sequential and pin ups...
a lot of his pinups works..
