The graphic novel, which evolved from comic books, is now one of the publishing industry's fastest-growing media. Meanwhile, the pen, ink, and drawing-board method traditionally used by artists and writers to create graphic novels, is now being superceded by digital illustration and lettering.

From first inspiration to publication, this book teaches budding graphic novelists how and where to translate their drawing and storytelling talents into digitally-realized art. In easy-to-follow steps, the authors demonstrate--

How to ink and color illustrations using computer software
