About the Author:
Will Eisner is one of the most important creators to have worked in the comics medium. Not only did he innovate the entire newspaper strip format with The Spirit, but in A Contract With God, a book-length comic detailing life in a Jewish tenement, he is also credited with publishing the first "graphic novel" (indeed, Eisner himself coined the term). Brilliantly creative until his death in 2005, Eisner's shadow still looms large over the modern comics industry, and may it ever remain so!
