MODERN MASTERS VOLUME 15: MARK SCHULTZ SC The mid-'80s was the age of independent comics. It was also the age of the dinosaur, thanks to Mark Schultz and Xenozoic Tales! Evocative of the master illustrators of the early 1900s, but with a decidedly modern flair, Schultz's artwork took off in Xenozoic Tales, and later spawned the Cadillacs & Dinosaurs cartoon and toy line. Schultz has also written Superman, Aliens, and Predator comics, as well as a novel featuring DC's Flash. Currently he writes the Prince Valiant newspaper strip. This book takes an exhaustive look into Schultz’s creative process. Included is a career-spanning interview with tons of art, including many rare and unpublished pieces!
