One of the best video game art books is getting a long-awaited follow-up later this year. The Art of Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course will be published by Dark Horse Books on October 22. The original Cuphead art book is a stunning companion for the base game, as it beautifully captures the painstaking process of animating a game designed to look like a 1930s-era cartoon. And now, Cuphead's lone expansion is receiving the same treatment. Two editions of The Art of Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course are available to preorder at Amazon, including a gorgeous limited edition for Cuphead superfans. You'll also soon be able to get an inside look at the making of Netflix's The Cuphead Show. View the full article
