Synopsis "SHOP TALK: CONVERSACIONES CON WILL EISNER (in Spanish)"

WILL EISNER (1917-2005) es conocido en todo el mundo por ser uno de los grandesmaestros del cómic. En 1940 creó a THE SPIRI T, que se publicó por todo el mundo durante muchos años e influyó a una generación entera de jóvenes dibujantes. En 1952, cuando concluyó la serie, Eisner se puso a trabajar en el, por aquel entonces inexplorado, campo de los cómics educativos. A mediados de los setenta, Eisner retornó a su primer amor: el arte secuencial como instrumento narrativo. En 1978 escribió y dibujó CONTRATO CON DIOS , considerada como la primera novela gráfica de la historia. Desde entonces ha producido muchas otras novelas gráficas, tanto satíricas como dramáticas, y algunas de ellas han obtenido premios no sólo en Estados Unidos sino también en el resto del mundo. Cuando Eisner se reunía para charlar con otros maestros del medio gráfico, de la talla de Milton Caniff,Jack Kirby o Neal Adams , el resultado siempre era un buen número de contenidos de vital importancia para cualquier persona que trabaje en la industria de cómic, indispensables para cualquiera que desee adentrarse en él. Publicadas periódicamente en la revista SPIRIT y en el WILL EISNER ’ S QUARTERLY , las entrevistas incluidas en este libro fluyen de forma natural para crear un compendio de secretos técnicos, anécdotas divertidas y lecciones sobre la historia del mundo del noveno arte.

Will Eisner (1917-2005) was part of the birth of what is known today as the American comic-book industry, creating titles like Blackhawk and Sheena, Queen of the Jungle in the 1930s. In the 1940s, he created The Spirit, a character whose comic series was published for twelve years as an 8-page newspaper Sunday supplement, a unique and innovative format that had a weekly circulation of 5 million copies. As a technical officer at the Pentagon during World War II, Eisner was a pioneer in using comics for troop training, a creative job he continued to perform as a civilian under contract with the U.S. Army, as well as for General Motors or elementary schools, until the late 1970s

In 1978, Eisner created the concept of the “graphic novel” with A Contract with God, giving rise to an entirely new literary genre. He would later create nearly twenty more graphic novels. In 1988, the Eisner Award was established, the most important in the American comic industry and named in his honor. Eisner received recognition and numerous awards worldwide, including a lifetime achievement award from the National Foundation for Jewish Culture (2002)

Venturing beyond his usual fiction and memoir narratives, in The Plot Eisner delved into new territory where he could apply his skill as a graphic storyteller. In what would be his last work, Eisner recounts the sordid, yet fascinating, story of one of the most destructive lies of the 20th century.
