Mark Brooks is an awesome American comic book artist who is currently signed to an exclusive contract with Marvel comics. He's known for his manga-influenced style, and detail in drawing backgrounds and scenery. His work is absolutely breathtaking, so you should definitely check it out. I first found him a few years ago in DeviantArt, and the fact that he's constantly updating his portfolio is pretty great. There are 2 places to check his work ...

MAD About Star Wars is a lot more than your typical MAD magazine anthology. The author, Jonathan Bresman, was a Lucasfilm employee before he became a senior editor at MAD, so there's a really great sense of how Lucasfilm and George Lucas (a legendary MAD Magazine fan) reacted to each of the many spot-on, hold-your-gut parodies MAD ran over the years. The book is liberally sprinkled with sidebar anaecdotes telling stories of MAD and Lucas's ...

Wondering where to find more The Dark Knight-style Joker now that we're years away from a sequel (and Heath Ledger is... unavailable)? Crime writer Brian Azzarello would like to draw your attention to a little graphic novel he's been working on that he promises is "so ugly - in a good way." The book, Joker was originally going to have a much more familiar title, before corporate synergy dropped by to say hello, according to ...

Any regular reader of HE knows of my love for the craft of voice acting and voice over, and my respect for the artists that bring our favorite characters and movie trailers to life. So it’s no surprise that the passing of Don LaFontaine has saddened me deeply. He was a master voice over artist that helped define the movie going experience for multiple generations of film fans. His unmistakable “chainsaw through gravel” baritone could ...

Born in Mexico, Bill Melendez helped create some of the most quintessentially American animation in memory. He concluded his storied resume Wednesday in Santa Monica, California, passing at the age of 91. Melendez worked on early Disney game-changers like Fantasia and Pinocchio before moving on to Warner Bros. to animate shorts featuring Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig. But it was his collaborations with Peanuts creator Charles M. Schulz that would bring him the ...

Is the movie version of Mark Millar's Kick-Ass in trouble already? Its biggest star, Nicolas Cage, has been talking about his reaction to seeing the comic for the first time - after agreeing to do the movie - and it's not necessarily a good one. What kind of teenage ultraviolent action movie are we going to be seeing in theaters next summer? It may depend on whether Cage or Millar can convince director Matthew Vaughan ...

Mat Johnson and Warren Pleece's graphic novel Incognegro is an alternately comic and gruesome mystery comic about Zane Pinchback, a reporter for the jazz-age New York New Holland Herald. Pinchback uses his light skin as a disguise, travelling to the deep south to report on lynchings that the local media won't cover, publishing pseudonymously as "Incognegro" to avoid reprisals from the Klan and their allies. But he's had one too many narrow escapes and now ...

Hace poco me encontré este librito (mide unos 10 x 15 cms) que reúne algunos artículos de la revista Generación, así como una muestra de las historietas que se publican en Monografico.net. Por tratarse de dos publicaciones que coinciden en ser transgresoras, provocativas y además longevas, nació la idea de hacer esta antología y en ella todos los textos giran alrededor de lo que se ha dado en llamar contracultura: ¿qué es? ¿con qué se ...Shared by Ztirzo (14)Contribute commentIt's Just a Bunch of Stuff That Happens (27) permalink
