“Draft”?

(And maybe the fact that current American movies doesn’t seem to be offering many Costa-Gavrases is what leads us to watch this movie that way? I think people are hungry for something that’s not being offered. But can’t blame this movie for that)

I think it successfully builds a cartoonish world and, within it, can conjure up some kinda feeling and emotion? I guess what I’m trying to say is that it makes for a better movie if you think about it as a good Spielberg instead of as a bad Costa-Gavras.

I had a similar feeling but ended up in the opposite direction? I’m just not sure “politics” would have made it a better movie? Same way Indiana Jones is a (great) movie without much “History”… like, yeah, it’s not a Harun Faroki movie, but most likely it would have been terrible at that?

Eran otros tiempos, hoy debería ser más fácil circular, pero no termina de pasar Lo pienso también, mucho, con la historieta (que es lo que conozco un poco mejor): creo que nos leemos irremediablemente poco entre nosotros, no termino de entender por qué es tan difícil ese diálogo transatlántico…

Decir “el público latinoamericano” tal vez sea demasiado amplio… Pero al menos en Argentina, muchos músicos Españoles lograron, también, un diálogo sostenido y profundo con la gente. Y entre mis amigos circulaban mucho videos de La hora chanante, eh…

Sorry, just realized that this can be read as a snark? I was not trying to make any point here! Happy to wait for this book however long it needs to be waited for

If I remember correctly, while Kirby was complaining about it, some penciler (Diogenes of Staten Island) drew a whole page, gave it to him and walked away laughing.

Somewhere in Making Comics the Marvel Way there’s the anecdote of Kirby complaining that finishing a comic is impossible: “to draw a page, first you have to draw a panel. But to draw a panel, first you have to draw the character in it. But to draw the character, first you gotta draw their face, etc”

"comics that grab the reader with clean, legitimate resources, comics that surprise the reader because they are new, because they are original, because they are modern, of today, of tomorrow if necessary."

The date commemorates the launch, in 1957, of this magazine, whose back cover included this definition:
"We believe to be in the line of good comics, understanding good to mean comics that are strong, comics that know how to be both tough and cheerful, violent and human," (continues)

I was there, too! Decided to read one volume a year and that made it feel more manageable. It’s a fun read if you’re in the right frame of mind, I think. Couldn’t stop thinking about my attention span LOL

American “tech” seems to have caught itself in a loop of “first as tragedy, then as farce, then again as farce, and again, and again, and on and on”
