Echoes collects drawings from the myriad periods of Kaluta's notable
career and reveals the artist's unique passion for historical accuracy
and unbridled fantasy, traits that have inspired more than one
generation of artists and aficionados. Michael William Kaluta has been
referred to as the artist's artist. He has earned that reputation by
immersing himself in the worlds he draws, offering up his visions with
painstaking detail -- from Robert E. Howard's Hyborian Age through the
noir era of The Shadow to the delightfully retro sci-fi worlds of
Starstruck, and all places in between. Commontary by the artist, Paul
Chadwick, Neil Gaiman and compilers Dean Motter and J. David Spurlock.
