After a noteworthy career with Superman, Indiana Jones and Deadly Foes of Spiderman, the work of well-known comic-book artist Kerry Gammill mysteriously disappeared from the pages of Superman and X-Men. This volume reveals Gammill's exodus was to fulfil another life-long desire, to work on monster films.

In this volume Gammill takes us behind the scenes on the very important but little-known world of film conceptual art with a focus on designing creatures for action films. This is not just a how-to book, but also Gammill's autobiographic career retrospective, filled with art and anecdotes about his years at Marvel, DC and Hollywood.
