Vertigo Visions: Artwork from the Cutting Edge of Comics

      Well-known and much-beloved for giving intelligent grownups comics they can read in public, DC’s Vertigo line has devoted as much energy to its art as to its stories. This attention underlies every page of Vertigo Visions, a collection of 185 images from covers, trading cards, and gallery work by 75 artists. Dave McKean’s dreamy collages from the Sandman series and Brian Bolland’s precise caricatures of the Invisibles highlight a collection of consistently startling work. Tremendous care and feeling suffuse the art–in oil, watercolor, digitally enhanced photography, and ink, and a range of styles spanning the centuries. Editor Alisa Kwitney’s text gently persuades inveterate readers to let our eyes linger over each image as though we were actually reading a thousand words, reminding us that paying attention delivers substantial rewards.

About author:

    I grew up on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, and recall the days when there were fewer strollers and more trannies on roller skates in Riverside Park. I have an MFA from Columbia University (though only a dim recollection of what I did to get it).

    I have worked as a veterinarian’s assistant, a Hebrew teacher, and a comic book editor for Vertigo/DC comics. I have also written some comic books. And I still have all my old Shanna the She Devil issues.

    Somebody at Vera Wang once called me "the stupidest receptionist we’ve ever had." I only worked there for one day.

    I currently live in an old farmhouse two hours from Manhattan, with my husband, two kids, two burmese cats and a big Chinook (the dog, not the helicopter).
