Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking of too Gumbitch. Bit ill right now, but was thinking of collecting (and indeed organising) thoughts on this in to a wider topic... about the importance of the writer in comics, comic scripts and image. I might just be ill and delusional though, so we'll see how it goes.
But right now this whole thing seemed to be: comics are actually dead important! Isn't batman silly? I made superheroes real! Pose. See how much script I wrote for this one panel? I'm great me (I'd be literally nothing but a pile of verbose scripts without a good artist). Hey, I'm just gonna pose a sec, the sort of pose 80s metal bands would feel shameful for. I am the Ozzy Osbourne of the comics world (that part between his image/ persona that just seems a bit embrassing to me, like a doddery old uncle trying to be edgy - I'm not sure he can pull off his own image). LEGS AKIMBO. Oh dear. That's the best comics have to offer?
Job well done, comics seem as naff as ever. Yes, naff. I'm bringing that word in to play, taking it out of the box of words that shouldn't be used, because it's like that's what they were going for. "What's the main thinking behind this piece? Comics you say..." "Comics = naff!". Shudder. |
