Volume 20 - 1st printing.
"Kyle Baker!" by Eric Nolan-Weathington Kyle Baker may well be the funniest man in comics. With books like The Cowboy Wally Show, Why I Hate Saturn, Plastic Man, and The Bakers on his resume, along with four (of his eight) Eisner Awards in the 'Best Writer/Artist Humor' category, it's hard to argue against him. But he does serious, too - and you can't get much more serious than Nat Turner. He is the all-around cartoonist - he can write, pencil, ink, and color with the best of them. His work has appeared in such diverse publications as The New York Times, Esquire, Rolling Stone, and MAD. Without question, Kyle Baker is a Modern Master, and this book presents a career-spanning interview and discussion of his creative process, plus plenty of rare and unseen art, including an 8-page color section, and a gallery of commissioned work!

Volume 4 - 1st printing. "Kevin Nowlan!"
The Modern Masters series continues its look into the lives and work of today's top comic-book artists, this time spotlighting Kevin Nowlan! Nowlan is an artist's artist - highly respected not only by his fans, but by his peers. Cover artist, penciler, inker, letterer, colorist - even writer - he has done it all, and done it masterfully. Kevin's work on comic-book icons Batman and Superman ranks among the best in those characters' rich histories! His humorous "Jack B. Quick" feature - co-created with industry legend, Alan Moore - not only allowed him to explore his mid-western roots, but won him an Eisner Award along the way! This volume features an in-depth interview with Nowlan, fully illustrated with rare and never-before published artwork, as well as a gallery section of sketches and finished pieces. It's the ultimate look at a true Modern Master: Kevin Nowlan!
