[Karl · Rating 5 out of 5]

“Girls & Goddesses: The Pin-Up Art of Joseph Michael Linsner” by Joseph Michael Linsner does contain quite a bit of nudity, illustrated nudity, and some amazing art. The book contains a nice introduction by Eva Hopkins (Linsner’s co-writer), with an afterword by Joe Linsner discussing some history of Pin-Up art.

The rest of the book contains full page, and a couple of double page masterful drawings and paintings done by the talented Mr. Lisnser. This book is published by Image comics and is labeled Volume 1, I have yet to discover if a volume 2 waas ever produced.

The coloring of the pictures and the overall production values of the book are of the highest standards and the book contains much ‘unpublished’ material. Certainly worth the price of admittion.

As a fan of Joseph Michael Lisner's art work this book does not disappoint. It highlights his amazing talent of creating beautiful drawings and coloring of women with great facial expressions.

I love this artist. I was exposed to the graphic novel Lucifer's Halo at 14 by my best friend's comic collecting brother. Since then, I have collected two signed issues,and a signed print. This man has an amazing ability to capture the reality of a woman's body... Big ass and all!
