It's fun watching Carson go down the Blend Mode rabbit hole. This is the first video I've watched from you guys where I knew everything already. Made me feel smart until I realized I'm one year and eleven months behind watching your videos. I tried so many blend modes on Dave Sim's covers when he released the individual early Cerebus issues. Some of the covers we just recreated or remastered, but we got to got to town (no, DOWNtown) on some of the new covers he drew for the Kickstarter campaigns and I found myself using blend modes like never before on those. Two years later I feel like a have vocabulary of modes, like a Jazz musician, it's wicked cool.

John Wayne as Genghis Khan in the Conqueror from 1956 is one of the funniest unintentional comedy ever, just how Miscast John Wayne is. They filmed it in Nevada, downwind from a nuclear test site, a third of the cast and crew died of cancer after filming it.

Hi there . The foto shows a spanish fighter in the civil war 1936 . I think it is from afamos US warjournalist . Good show , superb otomo . Greetings from Germany

Was happy to see that youtube recommended this video to me. I first found out about this manga when the announcement of the sequel came out and have been periodically checking for a translated version, but it seems that not even a fan translation exists from what I could see. I might try to find a copy regardless. Thanks for showing more about it :) And I would definitely like to see a "what ever happened to Masamune Shirow" episode lol

love Samplerman stuff! he even contributed to the TALES TO ENLIGHTEN books!

Goggle "Orson Welles Chimes At Midnight".

I've always found it interesting when people feel they can pass offhand remarks such as these 10:07 so freely and effortlessly, when the original artist has no way to explain the context or defend themself (being passed on for quite some time).

Tea sommelier is not as fun to say as tea barista

I liked it a lot. I liked the part where there's a parasite in control of humans and all the celebrities made a deal with the parasites to become a celebrity and the parasites use the celebrities as pawns. I've just come across Daniel Clowes. I'm enjoying his stuff for sure.

I know you've said pronunciation isn't your strong suit - this one's easy - his name is pronounced "bag" Great video, though, thks

I just got this a week ago or so as well. Haven't read Fearless Colors yet but quite enjoyed 'Anatomie Narrative', where he rebuilds most parts of the human body.

Alice has lived a strange life and it often feels unreal. Sadly, most of the Alice Cooper comics do not capture the character as well as the Neil Gaiman/Michal Zulli collaboration in the 90s.

AL Williamsons' star wars books are amazing, I have no idea how he is not one of the greats

I picked up a couple of the Hate Revisited issues recently. Great cartooning, walked a fine edge for me on the comedy. Half the jokes landed, the rest felt a bit too edgelord. But ya’know that ain’t a bad ratio for a funny book.

Lovely work indeed.

Beautiful thanks for sharing

Very interesting set of books, thanks

There won't be a number 2 i don't think. This came out in '08, and Picturebox no longer publishes, and Weinstein has made a few unrelated comix since then

You envy the god box yet you would not sacrifice a mere 24 hours labor to aid in its creation? What help will you be when the revolution comes? ;)

32:20 That's interesting, I never heard that term. How is it spelled? Great review as usual, it shows that you thought about how Williamson drew and inked quite a lot... I knew that from Strange Death already, of course :) I believe one of the first things Prentice taught Williamson was how to draw men in suits- time to grow up! Enough with the jeans, tights and spacesuits... at least for a while! Now that I think of it, I would be interested in your thoughts on Prentice. There are a few artists who were so good at drawing specifically in a more famous artist's style that they get forgotten a lot. Leslie Turner is another one, or Cliff Sterrett's ghost- whose name escapes me, case in point...

Thanks I bought this a lifetime ago and when my stack got unwieldy I put it away and never got back to it. Gonna revisit it when I can

I like the vampirella / Shadowhawk novels

I searched for this book on here to show my river Zaffino’s work, I was making dinner and talking about graphic novels I’d read over and over, this is one of them however the second half is a lot different but still a good read

I like that the IDW Archie reprints keep the actual printing/coloring of the original books, and didn't ruin them like hundreds of marvel trades that completely stuffed up 70's and 80's reprints with digital coloring that loses nearly all shading, tones and all planes (no background or foreground due to the primitive / lazy digital coloring that was used).

Beautiful stuff !!

"Try and draw like Al Williamson" Sure mate........ 😂😅😢😢😢😢

Great talk through of the book, thanks. I was wondering about getting some of his work, now I will. 👍

I'm glad you're covering Paco Roca. I'm glad Fanta is collecting him. Roca is a cartoonist that I love and needs a wider audience in English.

I'm not sure that I've got your implication but I don't understand how a "childish" thing like war makes also the medium that is talking about it childish. The comic becomes childish if the way the author narrates it is. It's basically the "how" and not the "what" that defines something adult or not. Anyway, I disagree, war and politics are complex and for this reason can't be childish. War is basically a very human thing, it's in our nature and can be seen in everyday life as well. What changes is the scale. Also, you find it hard to follow because it is indeed way more complex than following humans' psyche, feeling and so on. That's like in every single book, movie or whatever that I've experienced. Understanding a court intrigue needs a lot of attention, for sure more than what you need to understand a man's struggle. I'm not into politics and basically I don't care but Miguel struggle/behavior wouldn't make much sense without showing what war is or it would be weak and not profound.

I have the spanish expanded version by Astiberri. The comic itself is the same but it contains a lot of new extras. I'll do a video about it at some point for my channel because you missed something very important. Paco Roca never really Met Miguel!!!!!

I love how Vol. 2 manages to weave all of these disparate threads together into something even vaguely coherent. Love all the resonances between the names and events.

Oh, good, Sean is back

I got to 4:33 before I got fed up with you running the master's work down with your limp complaints. I'm out.

I think the way you saw and understood his work has opened up my eyes for it as well. Given me a new and fresh perspective, thank you for taking the time to read them and dive into their meaning.

I read through it yesterday, and while I really continue to like the visual style of Burns, I have to agree with you on the actual story - it felt really underwhelming in the sense that I was thinking out loud if this is really the only story that Burns has to tell. Again, like you pointed out, it got me wondering what place this work is coming from - is Burns as a person really still struggling with this sort of trauma at his age? If yes, that would actually made me feel really sad for him. If not, then why does he keep making these teenage angst stories? My recommendation would be: if you like this sort of artwork - go for it, but if you haven't read any Burns stories yet, get Black Hole instead.

FFS Had me with the cover. 😢😉

I'd like to see Brémaud & Bertolucci try their hand at Howard the Duck, Darkwing Duck, or other great ducks.

Absolutely gorgeous. There always been a bit of push against the Disney comics, but they have done some great pieces in the past.

Reminds me of the old "Little Golden Books" line. Beautiful, innocent and charming stories/artwork. I grew up reading and appreciating them. Hope they do more of these, and with other characters!

going to have to get this, looks beautiful

Been following Sam on instagram for ages. Love see all the traditional art. Awesome work from a fellow New Zealander.

Think of every major graphic artist to work during the 80s and ‘revolutionise’ their genre. Then realise Toppi got there decades before they found him as a major influence! Toppi is a GIANT, one of the most important artists in any field of the twentieth century.

Hi! Thanks for the video. Love your reviews! I'm from Spain and I wanted to ask if the book title was translated as "Occultos" for the US or if it is a miswriting?

Awesome! Just ordered a copy. Thanks for the video!

thanks for sharing :)

Great review. I noticed that you admired Micheluzzi's compositions. I wanted to point out how much his compositions, black fill-ins and even some of the Onomatopoeia lettering all reminds me so much of Alex Toth. I wonder if the artists were aware of each other.

Guys! We need an interview with Sam Moore, ASAP, discussing tools, etc!!!

Thanks brotha! Reading Ichi The killer now. You just put me in to this; i’ll read it next!

The art reminds me of Scott Travis with watercolors.
