Right now, the 2 best resources for Byrne information & insights are: his official Internet site, and this here MM interview.This is incredibly well-done! So many memorable quotes & insights, I can hardly do it any justice. It's truly one-stop shopping on all things Byrne: his thoughts on his career, coworkers & other creators, editors, projects (why they did or didn't work and the behind-the-scenes info), favorite things in life, childhood, early career, present & future, and even on the creative process. *EVERYTHING* is touched on here, with various clips of artwork in black & white to support much of the material. Some Modern Masters volumes include color work; this is exclusively black & white: sometimes pencil; sometimes ink. It's nice that artwork is included in such a great amount: it truly adds detail to the words exchanged. A must-have interview for Byrne fans!-A quick breakdown--Part 1- covers his childhood up to his time in art school.-Part 2- breaking into the industry & his days at Marvel. My favorite! See also Alpha Flight Classic, Vol. 1 (Uncanny X-Men). And Incredible Hulk Visionaries - John Byrne.-Part 3- it's all about DC & Superman. Beginning with Superman: The Man of Steel, Vol. 1.-Part 4- return to Marvel & then Independents, up to DC today.-Part 5- storytelling & the creative process.
