One of the Best Drawing Books Ever Written
When I started out with this book, I was a clumsy, struggling artist, who knew nothing of muscle layout, stick figures, how to draw hands: mostly nothing. I had been illustrating my comic books with simple cartoon figures for some years.
After purchasing this book, in literally two weeks after I started reading, it my drawing skill increased three-fold! My simple cartoon characters found life in incredibly illustrated figures and costumes, bringing to life new characters in my excitement to draw new things.

This book is not just another drawing book; in fact, I have never seen anything like it. It doesn't just teach you to draw in the Marvel style, it kick-starts your unique artstyle. So in just a couple years, one will have almost indefinitely recognized their own way of drawing detailed figures.

Not just an average drawing book, this is a drawing book that shouldn't be passed up. This is the epitome of a wonderful drawing book for beginners. An enthusiastic 5/5!

A great present for any young boy!
My five year old son found this book at a friends house and had to have it! He waited by the door until Amazon delivered his prized package! The book takes you step by step in learning how to draw various action figures and gives wonderful art lessons at the same time. We have some real treasures hanging on our refrigerator from this book! I'm going to order one for each of my son's boy cousins for Christmas and a few spares for birthday presents!

THE book for beginning artists of any ilk!
It is a difficult thing to discover a book on drawing that will coddle the casual (or serious) student without rushing or confusing him with complicated theory or diagrams. I received this book as a gift and soon fell in love with it. It is an easy, step-by-step guide to drawing the human figure that puts emphasis on the two most important aspects of drawing: observation and practice. The diagrams are easy to discern and the text leaves nothing to chance. Though the early parts of the book state that it is meant to be drawn in, I would not recommend it. The book is much better used as a textbook than a playground, although younger artists will find this "drawable" feature to their liking. If in the past books based solely on one company's characters have seemed unimaginative and merely promotional, this book will shatter all preconceptions. Add into the bargain that it includes a pencil and markers, and you're all set. A definite must have!
