Product Description:
Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien, Predator, The Matrix - part of the appeal of great science fiction is its distinctive look. Now, with Zap!
How to Draw Fantastic Sci-Fi Comics, artists everywhere can learn to create their own sci-fi realities and to draw space heroes and heroines, intergalactic villains, robots, spaceships, blasting rockets, slimy aliens, and much more.
A history of science-fiction comics is followed by an overview of the genre illustrated by the masters, including Alex Raymond (creator of Flash Gordon), Wally Wood (who shaped the look of 1950s sci-fi), and Basil Wolverton (whose bizarre art launched a thousand mid-century sci-fi stories).
Then readers turn to Bryan Baugh's clear, detailed step-by-step instruction on how to draw dynamic cosmic action figures plus all the futuristic technology they can dream up. Perfect for artists, fans, even writers, Zap! How to Draw Fantastic Sci-Fi Comics lets the art of the future spring from the art of the past.

I applaud the book for beginning with a history of Sci-Fi comics and illustration as this form of art even dates back to the pre-comic book days if one considers newspaper comic strips and pulp magazine ... Read More
