The final volume in The Library Of American Comics and IDW’s magnum opus on the career of Alex Toth, titled Genius, Animated, will release in April. The 328-page, 9.5" x 13" volume will carry an MSRP of $49.99.
This volume, by Dean Mullaney and Bruce Canwell, covers the contributions Toth made to the animation industry. "Genius, Animated gives readers a ‘behind the scenes’ look, with lots of previously-unreleased artwork and commentary by experts in the animation field," said Canwell. The book will have an in-depth look at work from the Hanna-Barbera archives, including character designs and storyboards, chronicling old favorites such as Space Ghost, Shazzan!, and Superfriends.
The project was announced in 2010 (see "'The Definitive Alex Toth'"), and the first volume, Genius, Isolated, won the Harvey Award for Best Biographical, Historical or Journalistic Presentation in 2012 (see "2012 Harvey Award Winners") and was also nominated for two Eisners.
