Sea Monkey Dreams: 30 Years of Advertising in Comics

On Nov 5, 2009 9:00 AM

You just brought back the pain of being a kid in grey London of the 70s. I would look at those sea monkeys, x-ray spec ads full of desire. But what was this strange S symbol, cents and most bizarre of all I had to have a zip code (in the UK zip is the thing that helps hold your trousers together)? Some kids were obviously having a lot more fun than me, with faces full of cherry based ...

Future Comics - Post Print Ponderings

On Oct 7, 2009 9:00 AM

Any company's dream is to sell you something on the internet that they don't have to distribute. They prefer to sell a virtual thing. But do we consumers always get something better with the advance of technology? I'm not spending money on digital comics because I don't want to be reading comics off a screen. The book is way more versatile and I want to own them as beautiful objects. If it goes...

Astonishing X-Men Motion Comic - Episode 1 Trailer

On Sep 30, 2009 12:01 PM

I'm selling this new product called Clear Thirst Quencher it doesn't have any taste that might get in the way of quenching your thirst. If you liked water from the forcet then you'll like this it also comes from the forcet; it looks and tastes the same. And my other product is called Motion Comics, moving pictures with synched audio. If you liked bad animation/cartoons well it looks and s...

Moore Takes a Step Too Far

On Sep 24, 2009 3:00 AM

Moore is pushing DC for something better. I guess it's better to keep DC on their toes rather than letting them rest on their laurels. Criticism is better at stoking the fire than flattery or complacence.

@Gabe. I heard an interview with Rucka and even he didn't seem to be wholeheartedly supporting the movie. I feel sorry for him.

Spider-Woman Motion Comic - Episode #2 Preview

On Sep 2, 2009 12:01 AM

There's no way I'd pay for that. The only motion comic for me is the interactive one where I turn the pages. I'm no Luddite but who thought this was a good idea?

Your New-to-Comics Glossary

On Aug 31, 2009 11:30 AM

Other potentially confusing comic book terms: 'Comic' - something unlikely to be funny. 'Prose' - we were told at school that it means the opposite of 'verse' or means an everyday style. But in the world of comics were talking books with lots of words in. 'Photorealistic' - in art school I was told it was a 1970s style of painting, from the US, which aimed at mimick...

Reality in comic books - essential reading

On Aug 27, 2009 12:00 PM

I keep vacillating between comics based on reality and those based on fantasy. It feels a little schizophrenic but I guess you can see one as representing the waking reality and the other depicting the dream state. Perhaps we need both for a balanced mind?
