- Summary
- "Sci-Fi Art: A Graphic History traces the evolution of this popular art form from the earliest illustrations of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells through the classic cover art of pulp magazines from the 1920s and 1930s, to graphic novels in the 1960s and 1970s, and right up to contemporary film posters, movies, television shows, toys, games, collectibles, and much more. Including a foreword by acclaimed sci-fi author Brian Aldiss, this book is a comprehensive compilation - a perfect nostalgia book for sci-fi fans and collectors, as well as an inspiring resource for art lovers, designers, illustrators, writers, and all creative minds."--BOOK JACKET.
