Text of the page (random words):
ead i ended up reading them both in one go to find out the mystery at the end the art is beautiful as you would expect from taniguchi very detailed and with a great sense of place it s a time travel body swop story were the middle aged hero gets drunk at his mothers grave and suddenly finds himself back in his 14 year old body in the past once he gets over his confusion a bit he likes being young again having loads of energy and life also with his adult memories he finds all the classes easy which is very different from when he was young and they were a hard slog he starts changing all the things that happened when he was young now he is dating the most beautiful girl in the class who he didn t dare approach as a child then he remembers that his dad left them without saying a word at the end of the summer holidays when he was fourteen and tries to find out why he left and stop him if he can i liked these books a lot more than the ice wanderer which i read last year but my favourite taniguchi is still the walking man so read that first if you are only going to get one of his books to try posted by rob jackson at 12 03 no comments labels comic recommendations manga friday 6 november 2009 benjamin marra night business issues 1 2 waaaaaaaaaaahhhh these are awesome they may well be my favourite comic of the year the drawing is so fascinating everyone is super shiny looking with tiny hands and strange poses grrrrr they are angry as you can see the best way of describing it is by writing funny noises the story is set in the city at night in 1983 johnny and steve are running an agency glitz glam which looks after exotic dancers a crazy masked murderer has killed one of their girls in a frenzied knife attack and now they are after him johnny gets one of the girls to act as bait to draw out the murderer the city is very sleazy full of pimps and strip clubs benjamin marra is a very funny man the authors descriptions on the back pages of the comics made me laugh out loud highly recommended go and order it from his website posted by rob jackson at 12 11 no comments labels comic recommendations usa tuesday 3 november 2009 great deeds against the dead part two first page with greys i didn t get much done tonight as i started drinking some lambs navy rum here s the first page of great deeds 2 with the grey tones added this is page 3 confusingly only 28 more pages to add grey tones too p s i am excited about grinder posted by rob jackson at 22 08 2 comments labels great deeds against the dead monday 2 november 2009 great deeds against the dead part two cover in progress i have been working on the cover all night needs more messing with yet posted by rob jackson at 21 10 no comments labels great deeds against the dead reinhard kleist johnny cash i see a darkness woah the drawing in this book is lovely it s really great the story seems familiar cos i ve seen that walk the line film and lots of documentaries about cash over the years but the drawing really makes the book my favourite bits are his trees they re amazing he s very good at the faces too and i like the way he illustrated the songs it took me a few goes to get into it but it was worth the effort as i really enjoyed it in the end i think the book gets a lot better after the first couple of chapters especially the bits were he goes to folsom prison to play his famous concert posted by rob jackson at 12 02 no comments labels comic recommendations german john porcellino map of my heart this is a great book containing six years worth of king cat s minus the long story from the first few that has already been released as perfect example it s really very good i highly recommend it to everyone if you have just read one or two king cat s and weren t that blown away you should try reading a whole bunch of them all together as they build really nicely and become more than the sum of the little stories the six years were very crazy for john he gets marries and moves house then he gets very sick moves house gets divorced moves house again and finally falls in love again at the end of the book some of it is very sad and there are some beautiful poem comics i really like his drawing it s just right for what he wants to do it made me want to draw which is always a great sign also it made me want to wander round looking at things and exploring i d read a few of the later ones before when they came out but it s still worth getting them as the book too it adds lots of context and you get john s notes on what was going on at the time too posted by rob jackson at 12 01 no comments labels comic recommendations usa small press saturday 31 october 2009 terrible halloween gag cartoon posted by rob jackson at 16 39 1 comment labels terrible halloween gag cartoon wednesday 28 october 2009 great deeds against the dead 2 nearly finished all the drawing is done now i am up to the boring stages of rubbing out all the pencil lines then fixing all my mistakes then i am going to add the grey tones it ll be a couple of weeks yet this is not the cover but half of page 7 posted by rob jackson at 18 41 2 comments labels great deeds against the dead friday 23 october 2009 new anthology hello i m thinking of doing a new anthology i think it ll come out twice yearly in time for the uk web comix thing and leeds anybody interested i m thinking no theme this time just good stuff i ll have some time on my hands next year so may as well have a go at doing it more reguarly and see how it goes can anyone think of an awesome name for a new anthology free copies of it for life is the prize i ll have a think myself too but names not my strong point posted by rob jackson at 11 40 18 comments labels ideas new anthology monday 19 october 2009 good news hurray i have written the ending for great deeds 2 now i just have to draw the last 5 pages then clean them all up add the grey tones scan them and get them printed it s not going to be for leeds instead i ll bring it out in december i ve still never took the pasty anthology or great deeds 1 to a convention myself so i want to try selling them instead of rushing this new comic out i ll fix up some mistakes too and do a proper job it s a relief to get the ending in right as i didn t know how it was going to go only in a vague sense and it s a bit of a risky way to draw comics it stops me getting bored though i hope it s not how everyone was expecting it to end i can t show any as it will give the story away but i should have the cover to show in a week or two posted by rob jackson at 17 31 2 comments labels great deeds against the dead sunday 18 october 2009 ted may injury 3 yay another awesome issue of ted may s injury comics my favourite story is once again the story from jeff wilson s heavy metal school days written by jeff wilson and drawn by ted may this one is called burnout in the cosmos there s a cool page from it above jeff has trouble thinking of three things he is thankful for after he is placed in in school suspension for fighting the other stories are great too ted chucked a copy of the simpsons halloween special review here from cbr in with the comic as he wrote and coloured a story for it it s very good too buy injury here posted by rob jackson at 16 53 no comments friday 16 october 2009 cool interview with benjamin marra i liked this interview with benjamin marra who does night business i ll have to get me some of those indie comics don t always have to be indulgent pitying self analyses of despair sadness and self importance there s a broader spectrum of emotions and story ideas out there i m trying to explore in comics like lust rage revenge violence street justice drug abuse nudity and sexiness link found on the excellent comics comics website posted by rob jackson at 11 14 no comments labels cool interview tardi manchette west coast blues this was a good laugh i d never read any tardi before so i ordered this one when it came out from fantagraphics there s another book too but that ones only for sale in the usa for copyright reasons it s very french and very seventies too in the drawing style i think it s because of the rounded cloud like speech bubbles it reminded me a bit of the coen brothers in the story something like fargo i think it s the ordinary people getting caught up with violent murderers theme the violence in it is very sudden and brutal but very cartoony it takes you by surprise when it suddenly breaks out he draws lovely lumpy people that i really like and great scenery there are some very funny bits especially the scene when the hero is explaining to a woman he s just met what has happened to him the only thing i didn t like about it too much was the way all the people s and brands names were in capitals throughout the story i m sure they were like that in the original french version but i wasn t sure why it just bothered me for some reason while i was reading it as it pulled you right out of the story i suspect it was done to make the story seem more cold and distant more like reporting on the facts afterwards it was an interesting effect anyhow i d like to try some more tardi maybe his adele blanc sec series as i like the look of the heroine i ll get some next time i m in france posted by rob jackson at 11 01 no comments labels bande dessinee comic recommendations french thursday 15 october 2009 oliver east proper go well high this is oliver east s second book it s really good there s a fancy review of it here from richard bruton oliver spends a lot of time trying to draw things in new ways such as wind and rain i really like the way he draws wind in this book as little spirally things there are some very beautiful pages in here especially the buildings in manchester near the start and the pages where he draws paths going round buildings on otherwise white pages those are really good some of the pages are really hard to decipher as to what they are it makes you slow down when you are reading it so it lasts a good while there were a few i couldn t work out at all but not very many i m looking forward to his next book which is set in berlin i ve never been there so there won t be any of the pleasure of recognising things i get from his other stuff but i really like his idea of getting other artists to draw the graffiti on the pages so that should be cool posted by rob jackson at 10 59 no comments labels comic recommendations uk wednesday 14 october 2009 fear baldwin style posted by rob jackson at 20 10 no comments labels if you give me lots of money i will make this awful film terrifying cinema sfar trondheim boulet dungeon zenith 3 back in style here s the third part of the main zenith story from dungeon it s been ages since one of this part of the series has come out so it s good to see what happens next zenith is set at the height of the dungeons power in the middle of the many stories set at different times boulet is doing the art for this book i hadn t heard of him before it s really great drawing as to be expected it took me a little while to get used to the different way he draws the characters the faces are all quite different the violence level seems to have gone up a bit in this book with loads of fights and brutal deaths of the many hordes of enemies also loads of lawyers have appeared brrrrrr in this book the keeper has to take out a massive loan to pay for his wedding to princess isis herbert the duck runs off with her and everyone chases after the keeper defaults on his loan and everyone is kicked out of the dungeon which becomes the property of the scheming delacourt previous owner of herbert s magic sword hmm this is sounding very confusing but it s a really complicated plot in the second half herbert has to return to his home city of birds which he is banished from on pain of beheading he goes under a magical disguise which gives him the face of death i still really like dungeon it is very very enjoyable and fun to read posted by rob jackson at 09 14 no comments labels bande dessinee comic recommendations french monday 12 october 2009 naoki urasawa pluto volume 4 now i m up to part four of this series i m still really enjoying it it s very addictive luckily no more are going to come out till next year so i don t bankrupt myself buying them all at once i m not quite as keen on it as 20th century boys his other series but it s still really good pop type entertainment and something i really enjoy reading the series is zooming along showing new robots in each volume and the plot is crackling along too posted by rob jackson at 12 08 no comments labels comic recommendations manga thursday 8 october 2009 great deeds part 2 news i ve been very busy this week
