Legendary Batman and X-Men talent, Neal Adams, bursts back onto the comics scene with a new graphic novel, Neal Adams Monsters, featuring the most terrifying supernatural creatures in classic horror history: The Frankenstein Monster, Count Dracula and the Werewolf. Neal Adams Monsters was rendered oversized to take the art to the max. The end result is a masterwork which features the dramatic linework and exquisite fine rendering Neal Adams has been canonized for. Thrill to a level of unprecedented detail as a comics grandmaster reveals the story of these infamous horror legends as only he can see them: a horror epic guaranteed to thrill.

Collected into an English-language graphic novel for the first time, this Deluxe, Signed, Slipcased Hardcover features material that was originally serialized in Adams’ groundbreaking anthology “Echo of Future Past.” This new edition has digital coloring and effects in a process personally overseen by Adams to conform to his exacting standards for rendering, lighting and form. New pages have been added, new covers, and a special section of rare paintings, sketches and drawings of monsters from throughout his illustration career. A real “Neal Adams Treasure” for the serious Neal Adams collector and/or enthusiasts.

Neal Adams, trail-blazing pioneer of the “illustration” school of comic book art, set a benchmark in comic book illustration that has kept his work in print and in constant demand for over 30 years. An innovator, yet never one to rest on his laurels, Adams leapt from advertising illustration to comic art fueled by his unique artistic vision of how things “should and could be done, if one really wanted to do it correctly.” Storyteller, director, theorist, publisher, designer, writer and artist, Adams wears all these hats interchangeably – genre to genre, style to style with the consummate ease that he has made his trademark.

Adams true ‘signature’, to clients and fans around the world, has always been his inexhaustible range of artistic styles: Superhero, big-foot cartoon, technical designs for theatres and amusement parks, gritty realism, satire, lampoon, and of course, horror.

In this book, Neal reveals that deep down, he is a true fan of the classic horror films which filled his imagination with monsters and mayhem and made him dare to want to do it better. “This is the story I would bring to film” says Adams. So, sit back, grab your popcorn and get ready for your screening of Neal Adams’ Monsters.
