Will Eisner: The Centennial Celebration

The impact that Will Eisner (1917–2005) had on sequential art cannot be overstated—his innovative storytelling, layouts, and art on his newspaper series The Spirit inspired a generation of cartoonists, and his turn toward an acclaimed run of graphic novels, beginning in 1978 with A Contract with God, helped pioneer the form.

This catalogue celebrates the centennial of a master storyteller, including over 175 selected illustrations beautifully reproduced from the landmark Will Eisner Centennial Celebration exhibitions that took place in 2017 at Le Musée de la Bande Dessinée in Angoulême and the Society of Illustrators in New York.
