“This book…presents the greatest artwork from the greatest period of the life of one of the most incomparable cartoonists of our time. Mullaney and Canwell tell the story of Alex Toth’s life in fascinating detail while also presenting what seems like a nearly infinite number of classic Toth masterworks in this book. Anyone who enjoyed 2011’s Genius Isolated, from the same writers and publishing house, knows the quality of material to expect from its sequel. Those readers will squeal with joy to see that this new book is the equal of its predecessor. Genius Illustrated is immaculate. The generosity of artistic material in this book knows no bounds, and the quality of the biographical material is absolutely unparalleled in comics scholarship.”
”The amount of material collected in Genius, Illustrated is bordering on the ridiculous. Being an Alex Toth aficionado has been extremely difficult over the years—the majority of his work in comics is out of print, or was never even collected…Between the first and second volumes of The Life and Art of Alex Toth is the definitive collection of his art.”
