From the book - "Will Eisner is the single person most responsible for giving comics its brains. He's given us a way to see and to think about comics. He has helped to provide an understanding of its workings that we must have if we are to take the medium forward rather than allowing it to stagnate. There is no one quite like Will Eisner. There never has been, and on my more pessimistic days, I doubt there ever will be." -Alan Moore
