A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
David Smith is giving his life for his art--literally. Thanks to a deal with Death, the young sculptor gets his childhood wish: to sculpt anything he can imagine with his bare hands. But now that he only has 200 days to live, deciding what to create is harder than he thought, and discovering the love of his life at the 11th hour isn't making it any easier This is a story of desire taken to the edge of reason and beyond; of the frantic, clumsy dance steps of young love; and a gorgeous, street-level portrait of the world's greatest city. It's about the small, warm, human moments of everyday life...and the great surging forces that lie just under the surface. Scott McCloud wrote the book on how comics work; now he vaults into great fiction with a breathtaking, funny, and unforgettable new work.

Magnificent The best how-to manual ever published. -- Kevin Kelly, Cool Tools
The renowned author of Understanding Comics offers brilliant instruction on how to actually create this widely beloved art form.
Scott McCloud tore down the wall between high and low culture in 1993 with Understanding Comics, a massive comic book about comics, linking the medium to such diverse fields as media theory, movie criticism, and web design. In Reinventing Comics, McCloud took this to the next level, charting twelve different revolutions in how comics are generated, read, and perceived today. Now, in Making Comics, McCloud focuses his analysis on the art form itself, exploring the creation of comics, from the broadest principles to the sharpest details (like how to accentuate a character's facial muscles in order to form the emotion of disgust rather than the emotion of surprise.) And he does all of it in his inimitable voice and through his cartoon stand-in narrator, mixing dry humor and legitimate instruction. McCloud shows his reader how to master the human condition through word and image in a brilliantly minimalistic way. Both comic book devotees and the uninitiated will marvel at this journey into a once-underappreciated art form.

Crockpot recipes are not only easy and quick, but they are extraordinarily tasty.
Cook for tenderness and flavor.
The secret behind the marvel of slow-cooked meals is the sustained low temperature and the sealed environment. Because the temperature is low and the cooking time is extended, even the toughest cuts of meat are effectively broken down to the point that they melt in your mouth. The closed cooking environment traps all the flavor and moisture, infusing tasty juices throughout the dish. When done correctly, everything you cook in a crockpot will be very good.
Delicious recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
In this book you will find all kinds of recipes including those that you can start in the morning or overnight and eat in about 8 hours. There are also recipes that only take a few hours to cook in a crockpot. Make main dishes like meatloaf, pot roast or lamb chops.
