Marvels: Eye of the Camera #[nn]

The Thing muscles his way through a gridlocked city street on Jay Anacleto's cover — cars hemmed in, onlookers frozen in stunned disbelief as Marvel's ever-lovin' blue-eyed idol fills the frame with raw, craggy presence. This collected edition of Kurt Busiek's Marvels: Eye of the Camera brings together the series that views the Marvel Universe through a street-level lens, with Anacleto's photorealistic painted art making every panel feel startlingly immediate. At $24.99, it's a satisfying way to experience Busiek's thoughtful, human-scaled storytelling alongside some of the most painterly work in mainstream comics.
