Publisher's Summary

An audiobook narrated by author Bob Andelman, Will Eisner: A Spirited Life is the authorized biography that explores Eisner's amazing life, detailing a career that spanned 70 years. The biography features interviews with many of Eisner's contemporaries, such as Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons, Neil Gaiman, Denis Kitchen, Jim Warren, Dave Sim, Denny O'Neil, and Stan Lee.

Bob spent almost three years interviewing Eisner, researching his life and work, and interviewing friends, family, and the creative talents the comics master inspired throughout his career.

Internationally recognized for his genre-busting 1940s art and storytelling style on The Spirit, Will Eisner's greatest legacy may be the graphic novels he championed and created. A Spirited Life explores Eisner's amazing life, detailing a career that spanned 70 years and saw him educate several generations of Army soldiers in the innovative PS magazine and create the first widely known graphic novel, A Contract with God.

Critic Reviews

"A must-have item for any serious devotee of the comics art form." ( Comic Buyers Guide)
"A significant achievement. The profuse illustrations, both photos and art, alone are more than worth the price." ( The Roanoke Times)
"Andelman's affectionate biography rambles a bit, but it's entertaining and enlightening." ( The Miami Herald)
Bob Andelman worked closely with Eisner in shaping an intimate albeit sprawling biography. - Tom Spurgeon -- Publishers Weekly/Comics Week
Will Eisner was a comics legend--and he has been honored with a biography to match by M Press. Savor it. -- Starlog Magazine
