Comic book fans have one more reason to check out New York’s Tribeca Film Festival. The big draw, of course, is the “Spider-Man 3″ premiere on April 30th, but the festival will also include the documentary “Will Eisner: Portrait of a Sequential Life,” about the life of the influential comic book creator.

“This is not only exciting for comic fans everywhere, it’s a testament to what the Tribeca Film Festival has come to stand for,” said the documentary’s director Andrew D. Cooke. “There’s a reason why this is one of the hottest festivals around. They’re not afraid to embrace the duality of filmmaking — the popcorn event picture on one hand and the low budget labor of love, which our documentary is, on the other.”

The film includes Stan Lee, Michael Chabon, Kurt Vonnegut, Jules Feiffer, Frank Miller, and many others sharing their stories about Eisner.

Will Eisner, who was born in Brooklyn, New York and created “The Spirit,” died in 2005 while the documentary was being made. He served as an inspiration to many of the biggest names in the comics industry. His life story was the inspiration for Michael Chabon’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel “The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay” and “The Spirit” is being made into a feature film by Frank Miller.

The Tribeca Film Festival runs from April 25th to May 6th. For more information, visit tribecafilmfestival.org.
