I look at this stuff and I feel like we've lost so much. It's no consolation that we now make comics you can read on your phone. I'd rather have comics I can immerse myself in than comics I can swallow like a breath mint.
I was lucky enough to see the show this book was based on at the Milwaukee art museum, which had all the artists -- some locations split the collection. Seeing those pages was amazing. They even had the final, blank page from the Kurtzman/Wood story "Three Dimensions!"
Watching this made me think it would be great to see you guys do a breakdown of some of the european artist editions of Spirou comics from the 50s/60s/70s
I just borrowed this from my school’s library!!!
Such a beautiful catalogue, but looking at more than a few pages at a time is like eating a whole birthday cake.
This book is a lot of fun.
Picked this one up at Borders for 9 bucks back in the day. I can relate to the point about Gary Panter “clicking”-he can be an acquired taste. A deep dive into Dal Tokyo would be cool!
He’s on my short list of cartoonist law whose work I buy as soon as I see it.
It’s an expensive business watching the kayfabe.
How fun. Thanks guys, great look.
That Herriman page you guys were asking about was hand water-colored for a friend. Herriman would often do that -- it's very different than the colors in the printed Sunday pages. So you have to see it as an individual work of art, not a mysterious process thing.
We were talking more about the water color process showing up in the reproductions in the newspapers.
McCay and Frank King loved their colorists so much they would give annual gifts to the coloring department -- a case of scotch.
@@CartoonistKayfabe There's a good Popular Mechanics article from 1920s that goes into coloring process. I'll see if I can dig it up.
YES, please do The Seahag!!!
Hey man, I finally got to read Red Room when it arrived in my local comic nook shop in Bournemouth, way down here in the South of England. It was disturbing. Looking forward to the next issue.
skip to 35:40 to see the part of the video that scared the shit out of me.
I went to this panel discussion at the Hammer Museum January 2006 czcams.com/video/KYkpvIrDAYA/video.html Masters of L.A.’s Underground Comics: Robert Williams Jaime Hernandez Gilbert Hernandez Carol Lay. I once spoke with former LA Weekly art critic Doug Harvey and he said the Hernandez Bros should’ve been included in the Masters exhibit.
Swell shoutout to classic pro wrestler Mean Mark Callous. Whatever became of that guy? Same with young up-and-comer Jean-Paul Levesque.
It annoyed me that Spiegelman's Shadows book was touted as a graphic novel which it isn't. It's a short 40 page comic printed on thick cardboard. Story's good but it got miscategorized that year.
