TOTH The BARBARIAN: Alex Toth's Rarely Seen Conan
#conan #alextoth #comics NOTE: I know that Toth drew X-Men #12 over layouts by Kirby, and since I make such a connection between the arcs of the two artists I should have mentioned that in the video as a point of interest, if nothing else. However, my central thesis remains that the rise of superheroes as the dominant genre in mainstream comics largely marginalized Toth's output, even when it seemed like he would have been a good fit for more noirish heroes like Batman or Daredevil.

    I could listen to Al tell stories from the past, till the cows come home. Such modesty and honesty. Instead of seeking distinction, he mentions those around him and how talented they all were. The stuff of legends.

    Very telling that to him the word graphic equals violence and not image Graphic novels is a perfectly reasonable name to describe the format and size of the story Calling it a comic is reductive and acting like there's been no progress is ignorant at best or creatively malicious at worst

    Understandable. Ellison did invent the alphabet, the English language, the whole of literature, and every scientific and philosophical concept in history. I used the definite article “the” seventy two times yesterday and had to pay him $144,000 in royalties.

    Harvey Pekar was a communist agitator, David was nice enough to bring him on, but Harvey was a jerk, plain and simple. He even admitted in that movie that he hated everything. Who would want him around them like that?

    Some authors like to take your hand and lead you down the overgrown garden path to a pleasant surprise. Some authors like to leave you in the dark, with only the words on the page lighting your way. Some authors like to slap you in the face. Preferably with the book they wrote.

    To everyone saying he is like am, i disagree, am cannot feel emotions or live in any meaningful way. He tortures the five because it fulfills his lack of purpose, Ellisons writing makes people think about the moral failings of their own actions and society at large. Pushing people to examine their worldview doesn’t mean that you hate them.

  • @slasher0630
    @slasher0630 Před 5 dny

    Sometimes the interesting thing when you look at the few Alex Toth pieces where his usual characteristics are absence, are usually when he is inked by other people. And that usually, at least in my personal opinion, never worked out. Toth was the guy that should always do everything, including lettering. He was always so great at that too as well. Toth was an extraordinary talent when it came to art, illustration, sequential storytelling. He really was a true cartoonist and a fantastic talent who kept growing in his skill because he never put that damn pencil down. I am however unsure if any of these examples you present in this short clip are works he did himself, where he really did attempt to be more detailed to somewhat fit in with the style that the genre asked from him, or if these are works where he did most of the work, and then finished off by another artist. That one Conan piece though does however look as if the whole thing was done by Alex.

    • @GodLovesComics
      @GodLovesComics Před 5 dny

      He simply couldn't because Sienkiewicz couldn't and the rest of the story gets more insane from there. I'm sure given the mountains of work he put into it that he wished he finished it as well.
