Comic Book Confidential | Ron Mann's COMIC BOOK CONFIDENTIAL A nice and unusually accessible introduction to an exciting artform. Yes, don't confuse this with THE MASTERS OF COMIC BOOK ART, hosted by Harlan Ellison. Two very different videos! I got so much from MANN'S documentary that, given the steady infusion of strong talent into this art medium hence ( Fantagraphics' catalog, Drawn a wonderful, nostalgic ode to the funny pages! This is a great introduction to the history of comic books and graphic novels. Anyone looking for an indepth study should just avoid this documentary as it is really targeted at the newcomer. And yet for hardcore fans of the old classics, this is worth a look as well -- if only to see and hear great artists like Jack Kirby and Will Eisner reading from their works. My only gripe is that Ron Mann didn't interview Alan Moore! A huge omission, in my opinion. That, and I wish he would've had more of Frank Miller but that's a minor quibble at best. Definitely worth a look if you are interested in the history of comic books. absolutely dreadful. I think the makers of the E Entertainment Network shows made this movie. It's reported like a tabloid news story with non-informative news.
