读过 Asterios Polyp 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
这部作品有点把我惊（艳）到了，这跟我熟悉的画超级英雄漫画的那位完全不像一个风格（他在超英那边也很厉害就是了），这部的漫画语言用到了极致，分镜、节奏、用色乃至字体都跟叙事结合得天衣无缝，实乃是上乘的图像小说作品。里面还有对建筑学艺术还有哲学的解读（谢谢《苏菲的世界》帮我科普哲学），但没有给满分的原因还是在故事本身上，主角这个心理转变过程不是很让人信服，有些角色设计出来服务完情节过渡就没了影，譬如那位抠搜的编舞家，女主的叙述也缺乏女性角度，如果篇幅再长一点这个故事可能能讲得更好，但最后一幕确实挺动人的。

#books #reading #comics #humour

A cartoon with woman holding a book next to a Rube Goldberg contraption. If she puts that book on a shelf that is already full of unread books, the shelf will slide down, activating a set of gears, rods and pulleys that will switch off an internet router and hide a credit card, library card and bookshop loyalty card. Below the cartoon a text reads: "When the quantity of unread books reaches a specific weight, the mechanism restricts the reader's ability to add to their stockpile until the backlog has been reduced."

Wishing. #funny #comics #webcomics

[A person sees two people in the distance holding hands and licking a single ice cream cone they are sharing.]

Person: Aww, look at them. I wish that was me.

[A tiny fairy appears]

Fairy: Your wish is my command!

[Now the person is happily having their face licked by the two people instead of the ice cream cone.]

Screech! #funny #comics #webcomics

When I make a mistake.
[The car I’m driving comes to a screeching halt at a stop sign at a four-way intersection.]
Me: Whoop, sorry! There was a tree branch blocking the stop sign until the last moment and then I had an eyelash poke me in the eye while I was trying to wave away a bee that flew into the car. What a crazy chain of events!

When someone else makes a mistake.
[Someone else comes to a screeching halt at a stop sign at a four-way intersection.]
Other person: Whoops sorry!
Me: What an idiot! they should have their license revoked! Driving around like they own the place with no consideration for other drivers!

My annual post .
.
#Holidays #Halloween #Thanksgiving #Christmas #Comics #comic

This is a clipped out comic from a newspaper. You see a road with three lanes in the far left lane, which is driving a car and the lane is listed as October. In the next lane labeled November, you see a turkey driving a car and in the far lane to the right is listed December you see Santa driving a car. The comic shows Santa driving across all three lanes, pushing the turkey and the witch almost off the highway. The witch says in a thought Bubble“stay in your own lane” as she points at Santa.

I created https://thebarbarellalibrary.com a year or so ago to document the 4 Barbarella stories and their various editions. After I moved to Italy, influenced by how Crepax's Valentina was spoken of in the same manner that Forest's Barbarella was, I decided to adapt the web framework for her. As I did so I collected more books and realized that... people need to learn her stories. Here's a start.

OK, at my current level and at this resolution, this is the best Spidey I can make.

#pixelArt #spiderman #cartoon #marvel #superhero #queens #digitalArt #lowRes #comics

Pixel art, black background. Standing Spiderman looking to the viewer, wearing the red and blue suit I remember from the 90's cartoon, but it's not orthodox and I altered the proportions, I wanted to see what I would do with the character. He's lit from the top right so I can use shadows to give him volume.

Same, except he's jumping mid-air looking to the right, chest pointed to the viewer and a bit to the left, limbs flexed, his left arm extended, throwing a ropey web diagonally up.

The cultural works becoming public domain in 2026, from Betty Boop to Nancy Drew

A new year means a new parade of classic characters and works entering the public domain.

By Rachel Treisman

https://www.npr.org/2025/12/26/nx-s1-5649395/public-domain-2026-copyright-betty-boop-pluto

#books #comics #movies #publicDomainDayCountdown

The original version of Betty Boop.

This is a black and white title card from an early Betty Boop cartoon, showing the character in her classic iconic form.

The image is presented as a vintage film title card with an ornate, curved border frame typical of early 1930s animation. The word "FEATURING" appears at the top of the frame.

Betty Boop is shown as a large head portrait in her fully developed human form (not her earlier dog-eared version). Her distinctive features include:

An oversized round head with a very pale/white face

Enormous round eyes with prominent pupils looking slightly to the side

Long eyelashed

A small, cupid's bow mouth with a dark circle in the center (her signature "boop-oop-a-doop" mouth)

Large hoop earrings

Her iconic hairstyle: short, curly black hair with distinctive spit curls on her forehead and a characteristic wavy black hair mass

#OTD in 1929.

The Adventures of Tintin begin with the first appearance of Hergé's Belgian comic book hero in Tintin in the Land of the Soviets, serialized in the children's newspaper supplement Le Petit Vingtième.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tintin_in_the_Land_of_the_Soviets

There is a controversy about Tintin entering the public domain in United States. For Alain Berenboom, lawyer for the Hergé Foundation, according to the Berne Convention, Tintin will enter the public domain in 2034.

Title on cover of original and reprint editions of Tintin in the Land of the Soviets.

The text alternates between blue and red, with "Les Aventures de" and "Reporter du Petit Vingtième" in blue, and "TINTIN" and "Au Pays des Soviets" in red. These colors are bold and contrast strongly with each other, symbolizing energy and action.
Arrangement:

The title is displayed across several lines:
"LES AVENTURES DE" at the top in blue.
"TINTIN" prominently in red, occupying the center with a larger font size.
"REPORTER DU PETIT VINGTIÈME" in blue, appearing below Tintin's name in a smaller size.
"AU PAYS DES SOVIETS" at the bottom in red, in a bold and striking style.
