Funding Now On Kickstarter: ‘The Marvel Art Of David Nakayama’
by Olly MacNamee
Clover Press and Marvel are collaborating on a new The Marvel Art Of… book featuring the artwork of David Nakayama, funding now on Kickstarter. And it’s already hit over ¢124,000 already! An oversized, deluxe hardcover art book containing the best of Nakayama’s art from over a decade of working with Marvel.
Speaking about this high0end hardback, Nakayama said:
“Guys, I’m stoked! Fans have been asking me for an Art Book for YEARS, and today I’m delighted to announce that it’s finally happening! And at the highest possible quality too, thanks to the fine folks at Clover Press. I’ve gone back through my archives and assembled well over 10 years worth of work (!)—everything from my earliest Marvel Adventures stuff all the way up to today’s Hellfire Gala covers. If you’ve ever wanted the definitive collection of my work, this is definitely the way to get it.”
Clover Books Publisher Hank Kanalz, added:
“David Nakayama’s work is remarkable! It’s fantastic seeing how his work has evolved over the years, and how his ‘signature style’ clicks into place. We’re working directly with David to collect a beautiful representation of his work with Marvel. Supporting these campaigns supports each talent directly and provides access to fans who may not be able to connect with artists at conventions.”
As for the book itself:
“The Marvel Art of David Nakayama collects Nakayama’s colorful art from his DVD and Marvel Legends packaging art to his exclusive and rare retailer variants for the first time, featuring a foreword by J. Scott Campbell.”
