520    "From the Academy Award-winning actor and best-selling 
       author: his debut novel. The story of the making of a 
       colossal, star-studded, multimillion-dollar superhero 
       action film...and the humble comic book that inspired it. 
       PART ONE of this story takes place in 1947. A troubled 
       soldier, returning from the war, meets his talented five-
       year-old nephew, leaves an indelible impression, and then 
       disappears for 23 years. Cut to 1970: The nephew, now 
       drawing underground comic books in Oakland, California, 
       reconnects with his uncle and, remembering the comic book 
       he saw when he was five, draws a new version with his 
       uncle as a World War II fighting hero. Cut to the present 
       day: A commercially successful director discovers the 1970
       comic book and decides to turn it into a contemporary 
       superhero movie. Cue the cast: We meet the film's 
       extremely difficult male star, his wonderful leading lady,
       the eccentric writer/director, the producer, the go-fer 
       production assistant, and everyone else on both sides of 
       the camera. Funny, touching, and wonderfully thought-
       provoking, this is a novel not only about the making of a 
       movie, but also about the changes in America and American 
       culture since World War II. Bonus material: Interspersed 
       throughout are the three comic books that are featured in 
       the story - all created by Hanks himself - including the 
       comic book that becomes the official tie-in to this 
       novel's "major motion picture masterpiece.""--|cProvided
