Artist's Edition


Artist's Edition is an award-winning line of hardcover reprint comic books published by IDW Publishing and edited by Scott Dunbier.

Each page in an Artist's Edition series book is printed the same size as the original art board and scanned from the original art wherever possible. Additionally, while appearing to be in black and white, each page is scanned in color to show blue pencil and other corrections.

Artifact Editions differ from the main Artist Edition line in that they collect an assortment of individual pages rather than complete stories.

An Artist's Edition Portfolio contains loose pages, printed on one side only, collected in a hardcover folder. Like the regular Artist Edition books, the pages are printed in the same size as the original artwork.

Since the Artist's Edition line became established by IDW, other publishers have begun to release their own lines of similar books reprinting comic art at its original size:
