PRAISE FOR THE GENIUS, ISOLATED (IN HARDCOVER):
"This massive coffee-table biography-cum-compilation makes a compelling argument for Toth’s stature through its painstakingly researched text and copious visual examples that demonstrate his masterful illustration, graphic economy, and elegantly powerful design sense. Crucially, it reprints many complete stories—most shot from the original artwork—permitting full appreciation of his commanding storytelling." —Booklist
"The first (literally) expansive visual biography of a classic comic book artist that manages to show and tell just what made the man and the work. Anyone with an interest in the medium should own and study this book. It’s one of those." —The Comics Journal
PRAISE FOR THE LIBRARY OF AMERICAN COMICS:
“THE LIBRARY OF AMERICAN COMICS HAS BECOME THE GOLD STANDARD FOR ARCHIVAL COMIC STRIP REPRINTS. The research and articles provide insight and context, and most importantly the glorious reproduction of the material has preserved these strips for those who knew them and offers a new gateway to adventure for those discovering them for the first time.” —Scoop
