"The book is a workhorse of a picture book with lots of valuable
images that you haven't seen before. . . . It is the visual
materials available here that shows the real value of the book and
makes it important to own." --www.MichaelSpornAnimation.com
"There's loads of model sheets, layouts, animation drawings and
comic book art. A lot of which I haven't seen reprinted anywhere
else. . . . This is definitely one of the best animation-related
books out there. A must for Warner Bros. fans!"
