Brush with Passion: The Art and Life of Dave Stevens

Brian Michael Bendis recommended this book in part 2 of his latest interview at Wordballoon. Bendis highly recommended it. Describing it as 'a cautionary tale,' he stated Stevens lived off of convention appearances and was nearly penniless when he died.

The book also contains behind the scenes insights into the Rocketeer movie.
