This classic Ron Mann documentary profiles 22 of the most significant artists working in comic books in North America today. With interviews, historical footage and state-of-the-art animation, it traces the creative development of the incredibly popular comic medium. From Jack Kirby’s Captain America via the irreverence of Mad Magazine, to the underground movement of the ’60s, with its "anything goes" cartoonists, Comic Book Confidential also updates the story of the ’80s, when comics exploded into so many genres and styles that even our superheroes can’t keep up with them anymore. Featuring Will Eisner, Robert Crumb, Al Feldstein, Harvey Pekar, Gilbert Shelton, Lynda Barry, Stan Lee, Victor Moscoso and many others.
