  I always say this was the book that actually taught me how to draw. I read several art and anatomy books during my teenage years, with almost nothing gained from any of them. At the age of 19, I had kind of assumed that I wasn't going to progress any further in art (and trust me, you wouldn't even say my level was 'decent'). But a few years later I read How to Draw Comics The Marvel Way, and for the first time, something really clicked. This book really teaches you the fundamentals. None of my previous books did that. The next months after reading it, I improved faster than I had ever done. I remember feeling that, until that point, I had been 'drawing without knowing how to draw'.

  That book is a masterpiece - not only for comics but even more so for animation and general illustration.  It covers all the foundational stuff that's important.

  man: I watched Invicible yesterday and it just reignited my urge to create my own superhero universe. I mostly had public domain names but yesterday I had an idea for my firt very own characters for the universe... so now I need to come up with their name and looks and superpowers and all that and I thought: Might as well get into drawing them, so I can actually visualize how there costumes would look

  This book gave me a art career! I discovered my hidden talent and now I have art work in many foreign countries.

  I owned this book when I was in middle school. I loved to sketch, I created my own superheros, villains, and storylines. My potential company was called WONDER COMICS. This book helped me very much. John Buscema was always my favorite artist. He was the best when it came to The Avengers and Conan The Barbarian.

  It’s always a great time to see an art tutorial from David finch. This helped a lot since I’m doing my own comic and it is pretty hard doing it all yourself.

  I didn&apos;t finish the video as I am scripting right now, but if you see this David I just want to say thank you. With your videos and numerous nights spent until sunrise I still found a way &nbsp;to tell the stories I wanted to tell. I&apos;ve come so far in so little time and have even exchanged conversations with Chuck Gibson. He even inked a short five page comic I did for some practice in sequential story-telling. I really do hope you see this so you can know for a certainty your videos are teaching people. I would not be where I am today without your videos. You&apos;ve helped loads. Thank you.
