英語に堪能ではなく、アメコミの知識にも自信はないのですが、少しでもお役にたてればと思って頑張ってレビュー書いてみました（＾＾；
間違ってる所とか、言葉の足りない所があったらスミマセンです。
まずグレッグ・カプロというお人について。
この方はＳＰＡＷＮというアメコミの原画家（ペンシラー）としてよく知られている方です。
アメコミは日本のマンガと違い、フルカラーが基本。ストーリー（story）原画（pencils）ペン入れ（inks）彩色（colors）文字入れ（letters）全て違う人間が担当し、一冊のコミックを複数人で作成します。
本書に収録されているのは、原画・ペン入れ・彩色までがカプロ氏の手によるもの（つまり、一般的なカラーイラストです）と、原画のみをカプロ氏が担当したもの、ラフスケッチ、メイキングです。
本文は全１６６ページ
イラスト８１種（表紙絵と、メイキング完成画像、シャーペンorエンピツの原画２枚含む）
１〜数点のラフスケッチを掲載したページが１９ページ
簡単な解説つきのメイキングが５ページ
トッド・マクファーレン氏（ＳＰＡWNを刊行していたイメージ・コミックスの代表）の前書きが１ページ
作品目録が１ページ
彩色までカプロ氏が手掛けたと思われるイラストが５７種
分業（インカー、カラーがカプロ氏ではないと思われる）によるイラスト２２種
スポーン（アル・シモンズ）がモチーフのイラスト２６種
サム&トゥイッチがモチーフのイラスト２５種
そのほかのイラストは、自分はどんな作品のキャラなのかちょっとよく分からなかったです。
スポーンのイラストだらけかとおもいきや、サム&トゥイッチのイラストが多くて意外でした（笑）
スポーン作中に登場するデブ&ヤセの凸凹コンビなんですが、単独タイトルのコミックシリーズがあったようで、その表紙絵みたいですね。
カプロ氏のイラストの見所の一つは、描き込みの密度の高さだと思います。
筋肉とか肌とか壁とか、服のシワ、マントの擦り切れ具合なんかが迫力あるんですよ。
スポーンは基本的にゾンビさんなので（笑）肉が腐ってたりウジ虫たかってたりとダーティーな感じなんですが、そういうイラストが平気な人、むしろ好きな人ならオススメです。
カプロ氏ご本人の彩色スタイルは油彩画のような厚塗りで、厚塗りの醍醐味をタップリ味わえます。
ただしスポーンのイラストが見たいだけならスポーンのイラスト集、ほかにもあるので、そういうのを購入した方が良いと思います。
カプロ氏を知っていて、興味がある、他のイラストも見てみたい、そういう人向けです。
安くはないですがイラストがたくさん載っているので、まあまあ納得できるお値段なんじゃないでしょうか。

Very cool book but misses the mark a little bit...
2007/3/17
形式:ハードカバー
I am a huge Greg Capullo fan and I have missed seeing his work regularly so I was very excited to get this book. The book has nice production values and does feature some wonderful work from a fantastic artist but I feel it didn't quite capture the scope of Capullo's talent.
For my taste, the book gives too much space to Greg's recent digital paintings and not enough attention to his pencil work and traditional comic book art. There is not one single sequential page from any of Greg's large body of comics work reproduced in this book. Also, covers are re-produced simply with text removed and occasional small thumbnails of the original pencils. Those original pencils should be full page and shown alongside the finished published cover! I think the lack of comics work featured here is a great error considering much of Greg's career has been built on his incredible interior page work on Spawn and other titles. To see Greg's original pencils, or even inked versions, would have been a great thing and certainly fitting in a book titled The Art of Greg Capullo.
I am not saying Capullo's recent painted work is not good, it is, but I don't think it has the same energy and appeal of his traditional covers and pages.
There is a very cool sketch section at the end that features some great pencil and ink drawings, though some of it is a bit disturbing and probably wouldn't be great for kids to be looking at.
Overall, Capullo is an amazing artist, no doubt, so having a nice collection of his work is well worth it. I'm just stating my personal opinion as a long-time fan of Greg's work that this book didn't cover enough of what makes him so great. I hope they do more volumes collecting his work in the future or someone puts together a sketchbook featuring his original pencils for covers and pages, that's what I want to see more of. Also, I can't wait for Spawn/Batman, Greg's return to sequential art!

Not bad as for a paperback

My only complain is the quality of the glue holding it together. You have to turn pages very carefully if don't want to damage the book. I think Greg's art deserves something better. I do realize that this is economy paperback soft cover edition but still I think it could be done way better. As for the content the print quality is very good, and the artworks show the evolution of Greg Capullo as an artist. There's also his commentary for several images plus a fully illustrated step by step tutorial covering how to create your own piece of art. To sum up, book is worth the price even it's not a perfect edition.

ONE OF THE VERY BEST TODAY!
2007/12/31

As a big fan of comic book art I always love to see comic artists get their just do recognition as fine artists with collections of their art. Greg Capullo has impressed me for a long, long time with his amazing covers for Spawn at Image Comics. Image has now released The Art of Greg Capullo, showcasing his amazing talent. The book displays many of those great Spawn covers but also includes a fair amount of previously unpublished artwork. The unreleased material was never seen because Capullo had deemed it "not good enough for print." There's a lot of artists who would kill to be able to draw as well as Capullo's "unfit" material! His painted covers for Spawn show just how much he has matured as a fine artist from his more traditional art work. He's shown exquisite skill in mastering lighting and shading techniques which is evident in the painted cover section.
A great example is his painting of Twitch of Sam & Twitch fame in a painting called "Glint of Steel." Here we see Twitch in heavy shadows, with only a fraction of his profile, and his handgun showing. It's remarkable sublte and yet bold at the same time. In fact, I think I may be even more impressed with his Sam & Twitch paintings than his Spawn pieces. With Spawn, he can let his imagination run wild in Spawn's nightmare world but Sam & Twitch are rooted in reality and thus Capullo makes these two cops bigger than life with his unique renderings. Another great piece is the cover to Casefiles # 15, as Twitch's gun looks like it extends for about five feet with Capullo's uniquely andgled perspective. There's a selction of earlier Spwan covers done in traditional comic art style and the book concludes with Capullo taking readers through his step-by-step process for his paintings, starting with a rough sketch which is scanning into Painter. Capullo then proceeds to work in layers with the digital program until is is complete. It's a great hands-on instruction for younger readers. Terrific book!
