One of the great auteurs at Warner Bros. Cartoons was Robert "Bob" Clampett, director of over 80 classic shorts during his 15 years there. He designed and brought Porky Pig and Daffy Duck to life, and his style is unmistakable. His daughter, Ruth Clampett, along with animation historian Darrel Van Citters, tells the story of her father's colorful career, revealing over 450 images from Bob's work, including the incredibly successful TV series, Beany and Cecil.

The legendary Jack Kirby was one of the greatest artists and innovators in comics. Working with Joe Simon, Stan Lee, and independently, Kirby produced countless pages over his long career. His interiors entertained generations and taught his comic book descendants how to draw. His dynamic covers promised essential tales. These are Kirby's Marvel covers from 1965 to 1968, a prime period for the master!
