Vampirella: Intimate Visions, Joe Jusko

    (Harris, 2006)
™ and ©2006 Harris Publications, Inc.

Some of the most iconic images of Vampirella in the 1990s come from the mind, and paintbrush, of the talented Joe Jusko. In this one-shot, Jusko provides extensive and enlightening commentary on how he developed the art for the fully-painted “Blood Lust,” explaining color choices, character auras, and how minor details in paintings can influence emotion and tone. Jusko’s comments accompany a reprint of the first book in the series. Vampirella and Jusko fans will enjoy the one-shot, but fans of fantasy painting in general might also come away with new insight into the process.

The title also includes a lengthy interview with Jusko and a “Making of a Cover” feature, outlining the process that takes an image from a pencil sketch to a finished painting.
