Steven Universe: Art & Origins is the first book to take fans behind the scenes of the groundbreaking and boundlessly creative Cartoon Network animated series Steven Universe. The eponymous Steven is a boy who--alongside his mentors, the Crystal Gems (Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl)--must learn to use his inherited powers to protect his home, Beach City, from the forces of evil. Bursting with concept art, production samples, early sketches, storyboards, and exclusive commentary, this lavishly illustrated companion book offers a meticulous written and visual history of the show, as well as an all-access tour of the creative team's process. Steven Universe: Art & Origins reveals how creator Rebecca Sugar, the writers, the animators, and the voice actors work in tandem to bring this adventure-packed television series to life.

Steven Universe is a weird sci-fi cartoon about magical gem warriors from space and about how kindness and empathy can save the world. It also embraces the LGBTQ+ community and casually uses non-binary gender pronouns. I am a raving mega-fan.

Some big coffee table art books are better for perusing, but I read this volume that details the show‘s origins and the work that goes into crafting each episode from cover to cover.

It‘s glorious.

Weaponxgirl This looks amazing! I love that cartoon for just how sneakily inclusive it is ❤️ 6y
jazzigen95 I am OBSESSED with SU. I absolutely need this book in my life 😍 6y
lynneamch My granddaughters are obsessed with SU. I think the highlight of their trip to museums in DC was at the Natural History Museum where they took pictures of each of the gems that characters are named after. 6y

Steven Universe Harmony!! There were a few covers at my comic place and this was the only one with a sealed cover. I‘m a sucker in believing that means its special.
