New Nose by Brandon Graham |
The reason I regard a lot of mainstream dudes as bullshit is not because they can't draw but because the extent of that is power girl complaining about having back problems. (also, have you seen my new spanking comic?)
It's scary and hard to go beyond what works and a lot of the guys who I think have done some of the best work I also think later found a comfortable place and didn't push it as much. so yeah great power/great responsibility."

James Stokoe's comment puts a bow on this.
ReplyDelete"WAH WAH WAH MAINSTREAM WAH WAH WAH. I’m orphan, my brother’s queer, the city of Chicago got the clap from my sister, Mom drinks, Dad coughs blood, I have ringworm, imersion foot, the incurable crud and the draft ruined my chances of being a brain surgeon.
Stop worrying about what other people are doing with comics you don’t read. Draw in a vacuum, you boner, and finish your goddamn comic book. You have no problems. Except me."
I'm not generally a fan of comments designed to invalidate other people's opinions, BUT Stokoe is a drawing machine of the highest order (and Brandon's bud), so he can invalidate all he wants...
