From the brilliant mind behind Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Daredevil, 300, and Sin City, comes Push the Wall is part memoir, part master class for budding artists and writers by one of the greatest living creators whose work has influenced pop culture for decades.


Frank Miller is our greatest living comic book writer and artist.

Frank Miller shares his life, and through, his artistic process. Miller’s artistic influence is evident in so very much of our popular culture, perhaps most notably with Batman—every film adaptation from the past forty years has been influenced by Miller’s work with the dark knight.

Simply, Frank Miller has transformed the way comics are told.

Here, Frank’s mix of autobiographical lessons evokes Patti Smith’s Just Kids as it weaves his struggles as a seventeen-year-old kid fresh from Vermont into a seedy 1970s New York City with his eventual success on reimagining Daredevil and Wolverine. From there to Miller’s rescue and revitalization of Batman, to his time in Hollywood, the Sin City comics and film adaptations he would codirect, and the retelling of the Spartans’ last stand in 300. Miller, by constantly challenging himself as an artist and writer on his terms, built an iconoclastic career.

With over a dozen illustrations of Miller’s art, Push the Wall is the work of his career—it is a masterclass as it encapsulates his life in sixteen lessons for the aspiring creative reader.

Opinie krytyków

"Anyone who has ever been in awe of Miller's art will be thrilled to hear the backstories." —Kirkus
"Writer-artist Miller performs his own audiobook and describes how he "smashed the wall" into the world of comics with his unbridled art style. While Miller is not a professional narrator, his authenticity reveals a vulnerability that makes his story even more endearing. He tells listeners how he moved to New York City at the of 17 and, against all odds, struggled his way into the comics business. He partially credits the strict tutelage of comics legend Neal Adams, along with his own endless hours of drawing and experimentation, for his eventual success. Comic lovers will thrill at the stories behind his work on Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Daredevil, Sin City, and 300—and how the latter two became the most faithful comic-book adaptations ever made." —Kirkus
