Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great documentary on a living legend
Review: If you are interested Todd's work (Spider-Man, Spawn. etc) this is a good DVD to watch. If you want to know how one guy went from living in a trailer in Eastern Washington to being the greatest comic book artist around to a self made million with his own companies, watch this DVD. The documentary goes through his life, his struggle from wanting to be a baseball player to ending up where he is now. He is interviewed through out the documentary along with his family and friends. It even shows the day he bought the Maguire ball for 3 million. It is truly a very interesting documentary for all McFarlane fans. It is also interesting for anyone that ever had a goal.

CONS: I wish they went more into detail about the image creation. Todd spoke from his point of view (which was interesting to begin with- How Marvel editors didn't print Shatterstar stabbing Juggernaut in the eye in Todd's original artwork on Todd's last Spider-Man book). It don't think it covered enough about Image's rise and problems they had. They talk about Image comics a little bit, but not too much.

Overall, this is must have for all fans and if you are some what interested, I'd say rent it.

I think this DVD documentary is much better put together and detailed than Stan Lee's Monsters, Mutants and Marvels.
