The Webcomics Examiner

by 1 other
Webcomics entertain millions of people every day. But it is not widely recognized that they are also a medium of personal expression and experimental art. The easy access and wide distribution of the web has inspired an explosion of creativity, and digital art has opened the door to previously-impossible innovations in form. Indeed, we are in the midst of a new golden age of comics.

du9 - L'autre Bande Dessinée - Chronique: Galopu sauve la terre de Mattt Konture

Matt Konture, longtemps en automne hiver, le Morve en tête, a eternué un bon coup et s'est repris dans les saisons chaudes, assumant et armé de cet underground et monde alternatif qui entretiennent son talent, sa culture et son identité. Une maturité, une acceptation de soi peut-être aussi, où conscience, urgence et confiance se rejoignent pour avoir le désir d'agir et de couleur (verte principalement)

Unintentionally sexual comic book covers: Part 1.

by 2 others (via)
I was going through a stash of old comic books the other day, when I came across several that seemed a bit odd; not in the sense that the comics were strange or unique, but rather, because beneath the seemingly innocent veil of child-like artwork was a subtle nod towards debauchery. The artists who created these covers probably never meant for them to to be used as spank fodder, but being the mean-spirited, immature, asshole that I am, I've decided to do the only thing that a grown adult would do: point out juvenile observations of unintentionally sexual acts on comic book covers.

Seduction of the Innocent

by 2 others
IN THE LATE 1940s and early 1950s, a distinguished psychiatrist named Dr. Fredric Wertham made a name for himself in the United States by leading a crusade against violent comic books. His 1954 book exposing the comic-book industry, Seduction of the Innocent , is still remembered in American comics fandom as a wildly exaggerated and overwrought polemic and has gone on to become a collector's item in its own right. Even the comic books mentioned in the text or used as source illustrations have also become collector's items because of their association with him and the book. Facing a public relations nightmare and hearings by the US Senate subcommittee on juvenile delinquency, fearful publishers either went out of business or banded together to form a Comics Code Authority that would censor comic books before some outside body did it for them. American comics fans have no cause to love Dr. Wertham. They remember him as the man who attacked comics with his hysterical book, helped kill EC Comics (the one publisher doing anything like adult-level material), and brought on the Comics Code that reduced American comics to a childish mentality. Many fans have associated Dr. Wertham with Senator Joseph McCarthy, well-known for his anti-Communist crusade at about the same time, and legends circulate of Dr. Wertham accusing comic books of being a Communist plot or some such.
