A Nice look into the movie's production, artwork and scenes from the elementals, spider-man's and mysterio's suits etc. Amazing artwork as always from great artists in the industry.

Another stellar art book for the MCU. Most of these books are amazing, frankly, and after 22 films they have them down to a science. There are only a few pictures which span two pages, but there’s only empty space lost in the valley. More art books need to learn this.

I like that they’ve included stills from the movie so you can see the art brought to life, allowing you to compare and contrast the initial designs of the landscapes, costumes and characters to the final product.

The villain Mysterio is such a goofy-looking character in the comics, but the movie version nails the iconic costume. It’s interesting to see all the versions they went through, with looks that ranged from Iron Man’s Hulkbuster armor to something akin to Nick Fury’s trench coat. They made the right call in updating the classic Steve Ditko outfit, but going through all those permutations really makes the original stand out.

Just your friendly neighborhood concept art book. Spider-Man is one of my absolute favorite Marvel characters. This book is so much fun seeing all of the work that went into creating Far From Home. Now I need to track down the Art of Homecoming and No Way Home.

One of my favorite Spidey movies and seeing how it was put together is a ton of fun. Some of the alternative Hydromen and Sandmen are straight up terrifying but it is interesting to see how everything develops.
