As both a Cuphead fan and a lover of animation history, I was blown away by The Art of Cuphead! This hardcover book is a total gem—beautifully bound, rich in vibrant illustrations, and filled with behind-the-scenes content that brings even more life to the game’s vintage 1930s animation style.
What I loved most is how easy it is to get lost in the artistry. Whether you’re an aspiring animator, a game design student, or just someone who appreciates hand-drawn magic, this book offers real value. The commentary is insightful without being overwhelming, and the layout is clean, making it perfect for both casual browsing and deep dives into concept sketches and character design.
The quality is top-notch for the price point—thick pages, high-resolution art, and attention to detail throughout. If you’re thinking about gifting this or adding it to your coffee table or collector’s shelf, do it. It’s one of those purchases you’ll be proud to show off.

My oldest grandson is 9 years old and is absolutely fascinated with Cuphead. He plays the video game, he draws pictures of him everywhere, and is fascinated with the animation of Cuphead.
A wonderful book that tells the story of Cuphead from the 1930s.

So when he found this book, he put it at the top of his Santa list. I asked his mother if we, his grandparents, could get it for him. And as I’m looking at the book, which is beautiful, I can begin to understand his fascination for Cuphead.
This beautiful coffee table book tells the story of how, through artwork, Cuphead was created through the vintage look and feel of the 1930s. Each frame is hand drawn and shows the early concepts, production work, and all of the ideas that went into creating Cuphead.
It’s a wonderful video game complete with Cuphead and Mugman. It is clean and stylish and neither me, nor his parents, have any problem with his fascination for the characters, the games, and now the history and the artwork of Cuphead.
The book may be a little advanced for a 9 year old, but this is a family who reads voraciously. Highly educated and well rounded. He will grow with this book and who knows what dreams will become a career or a lifetime love of vintage art. There’s no doubt that this will be his favorite gift. He talks about this book constantly and understands that “it is very expensive and important “.
I see that there are additional books on his favorite video game. I’m loving nothing more than to begin his collection of vintage art and video drawing with his favorite characters.

Esto SI es un artbook
Para empezar, hay dos tipos de consumidores de libros de arte; los que se lo leen enteramente y los que ven sólo los dibujos. Ambos respetables. Bueno, si eres el primer caso, tendrás que saber inglés, si no es probable que no entiendas ni la mitad. Para los segundos, ¡adelante! Ya podéis comprarlo.AlejandroSmEsto SI es un artbook

Dejando el idioma a un lado, este libro de arte me parece de los más dedicados y completos que tengo de mi colección. Se hace hincapié en muchos aspectos, como si de un reportaje se tratara. A nivel visual y de estructura está correctamente organizado para que sea llevadera su lectura, tan ornamentado con dibujos y bocetos.
Sin duda merece la pena el dinero gastado, el libro es muy robusto y da sensación de calidad, además que por ese mismo precio o superior encontramos otros muchos libros de arte mucho más pobres, dedicados en exclusiva a las imágenes y bocetos (no se me malinterprete, no dejan de ser artbooks y son para eso, pero me gusta que tengan pequeñas explicaciones tales como por qué se decantaron por un diseño, en qué se inspiraron para este otro, etc.)
Recomendado.
