Book Design -- Prince Valiant reprint series

Prince Valiant, Vol. 8: 1951-1952 (Fantagraphics Books, 2014), pp. 4-5.

In 2013, I became the editor of the Prince Valiant reprint series with

Volume 7, after assisting Kim Thompson on the first six volumes. I

just finished my twelfth volume (Fall 2018). My duties include

writing biographical or art historical articles, compiling and

annotating backup galleries, finding artwork for both the front and

back matter (from international collectors, museums, and libraries),

digitally restoring photographs and art, creating preliminary layouts,

working with designers and art restorers, procuring talent to write Introductions, and proofing the final product before it goes to press.

The series has appeared on the New York Times "Best Sellers"

list, and nominated for several Eisner Awards.
