Marvel goes indie

From Paul Pope's Flickr:

Marvel has finally announced it-- their "indie" comics anthology. I have an 8 pg. Inhumans story in it and I did the first cover for the limited series. Both of my contributions will be colored by my friend Jose "Year 100" Villarrubia.

All my favorite Marvel characters in a serious Marvel Mash-Up.

This should be fun- it sounds like the second coming of "Coober Skeber: Marvel Benefit Issue." I can't wait to find out who else is contributing!

Paul Pope Interview

I think I had passed up posting this interview previously because it's really short... an excerpt from another video, I think... but here it is now anyway!

Paul Pope on Art

Paul Pope guest blogs on First Second:

There seems to be a real psychological need for art -- for all the arts. Art offers us a reflection of interior ourselves, through the eyes and hands and words of another. Through meaningful art, we consider ourselves and our very condition of being human, and in the process, gain more insight into our true natures as living, sensing creatures living on this planet of ours which we call Earth. Comics has stepped out of the wide shadows of film and illustration, and is now invited to stand on its own, an infant medium full of potential and power. We are being invited to share our stories on a world stage, however long or short our stories might be. We've got a lot of work to do, let's show them what we've got.

I just found an archive of some very cool audio interviews at Comic Geek Speak -

check out the full list here

Here are some personal picks from the list (though I have yet to listen to all of these):

• Mark Bagley - had a damn fine run on Amazing Spiderman in the 90's

• Gene Colan - a Marvel legend

• Joe Kubert - another comic art legend. Quite possibly best known for Sgt. Rock

• Erik Larsen - for me, Erik Larsen just might be the definitive Spider-man artist. It was during his run on Amazing that I really started paying attention to comics.

• Stan Lee - The Man, himself. 'Nuff said.

• Paul Pope - see my previous post for more Paul Pope links

• Dave Sim interview #1
• Dave Sim interview #2

About a year or two ago I read Cerebus straight through in its entirety. I think you should too.

• Walt Simonson - The Mighty Thor
