B.KRIGSTEIN

by Greg Sadowski

Volume One (1919-55)

Classically-trained Bernard Krigstein created comics with an unprecedented graphic power. Forced to abandon this restrictive field, he tried illustration for a time, then concentrated on his most enduring love, painting.

Volume One (1919-55), traces Krigstein's groundbreaking comics work at Hillman, Atlas, DC, and EC, as well as his parallel development as an illustrator and painter. Features five classic stories newly re-colored by Marie Severin.
