For fans of the upcoming movie MegaMind, check out the newly released The Art of MegaMind from Dreamworks, authored by Richard von Busack.

DreamWorks Animation presents Megamind, starring Will Ferrell as Evil Genius Megamind, Tina Fey as Roxanne Ritchi, the Lois Lane–esque love interest, and Brad Pitt as Metro Man in an animated film that casts the super hero genre in an entirely new light. Like all other Evil Geniuses, Megamind has been trying to conquer the planet for decades, battling the seemingly immortal, and incomparably charming, superhero Metro Man in a cyclical struggle. That is, until the day Megamind accidentally kills his nemesis. Triumphant, Megamind gloats, but the glow of victory quickly fades.

Without anyone to fight, world domination seems like a daunting responsibility. The despondent Evil Genius decides to create a new and even stronger enemy. But this creation — a muscle-bound, fiery caped crusader called Titan (Jonah Hill) — quickly develops different ideas, waging his own destructive war against the world. Our headlining super-villain must make a decision: Can he defeat his own diabolical creation to save the world? Can the Evil Genius become the hero of his own story?

Now you can enjoy this 156 page hardcover book with glimpses into the art behind Megamind. The book holds concept illustrations from the DreamWorks artists. There are color strips, character designs, background paintings, storyboards and designs on weapons of mass destruction along with some vehicles and robots.

Megamind comes to a theater near you on November 5, 2010.
