LEAPING TALL BUILDINGS ON LA TIMES HERO COMPLEX


My upcoming book, LEAPING TALL BUILDINGS: The Origins of American Comics was recently featured on LA Times: Hero Complex. The feature, "Joe Simon and Jack Kirby: Secret Origins of a Classic Tandem" excerpts from the Simon an Kirby section of the book and utilizes my photo of Simon, Christopher Irving's text and classic art from the legendary duo.

Thanks to Geoff Boucher for putting together a great feature!

LEAPING TALL BUILDINGS tells the history of comics through 50 creator profiles, and represents a four-year labor-of-love for me and writer Christopher Irving. Look for it in May from powerHouse Books, or pre-order now.
