2010: (A) Jeff Smith (A) Eric Nolen-Weathington At the age of nine, Jeff Smith dreamt up a cute, little character he named Fone Bone. More than a decade later, Bone became a smashing success, rocketing Smith to a level few independent cartoonists achieve. Published worldwide and winner of countless awards, Bone could have been a career unto itself, but Jeff Smith didn't rest on his laurels. DC's Shazam: Monster Society of Evil and his new creator-owned series RASL are proof that he is still one of the best cartoonists in the business, and Modern Masters: Jeff Smith explores his career through an interview with the artist, a discussion of his creative process, and mountains of rare and unseen art, including a huge gallery of commissioned pieces, plus 8 pages of full color work.
