Who is the artist?

forum on editorial de LoSpazioBianco.it , a review of issue # 250 of Dylan Dog has spawned a discussion on the role of the cartoonist who now around here. There was talk of

Bruno Brindisi as a draftsman. An excellent draftsman. Probably, with Roi, the best under the Bonelli.

But who is the designer? Brindisi is a disegantore as meaning "absolute ?
Let me explain. For me, the designer is a versatile artist, capable of arousing strong emotions in the reader with his stroke. The artist is a storyteller for images, free to express themselves as they wish to reach the hearts of those who have the book in his hands.

Gipi is a designer. Hayao Miyazaki is a designer. Daniel Clowes is a cartoonist.
The Italian designers who work for major designers are, they are often just " relegated" to illustrate a story made up by others?
You could feel this in a disparaging or derogatory opinion of the Italian designer, but it is not so assolutamante. A designer is just as good if paying their own pencils to others. I will not even say that the only designer "true" is the writer drawing their stories, because would be very limited.

The question I asked myself, just seeing the beautiful designs of Brindisi, it is only " a designer, although exceptional, if he has to make an album according to precise canons (both screenplay, imposed by the publisher) that limit their artistic talent, in the end it 'reduces' to illustrate a story, rather than draw it? .

a last example, we Julia, another comic book published by Bonelli . Berardi, author, claimed by its designers that the star is always drawn in the same way. This is confirmed by the fact that, if we look at Julia, only a trained eye can distinguish different designs. These designers, rather than "draw" Julia, are not "explaining" Julia?

How To Write Housing Allowance Letter

Bulletin of war

-19 Kg 31 Kg again at dawn. When

fatliquors 50 kg in five years is not a health problem or appetite. It 's just a manifestation of a pain, great pain, something that you can not shake off.
But enough is enough. I think I have atoned enough, it's time to regain normalcy.

Slim at this point in my life is crucial. It is not a question of aesthetics, or more. It is not a health issue, or more. It 's a major step back to the person I was before, which has lost five years ago, 50 kg or more ago.

keep my war. I'm not even halfway through my journey. And there is a new and more difficult battle I want to take ...

reading: last year, just in these days, I came across The Mangione (my review by following the link http://www.lospaziobianco.it/3327 ) of Tonino Benacquista and published by Jacques Fernandez Q Press. The Commissariat Selena is one of the characters that I have found again.

As I read on one of my favorite comics, as is often the signature of a friend of mine, we walk the path of meifumado.

Fell

The Moon Street police station is to me what the hell is Satan.
In addition, it smells like shit.
Warren Ellis, " Fell. "


This is the sentence which begins with the second Fell volume, surely one of the most compelling reads of this year. A detective is a bit 'out of the ordinary in a city very unusual. To entice them to read, you carry excerpts from my review of
Fell # 1 on LoSpazioBianco.it - \u200b\u200b http://www.lospaziobianco.it/3726

The English writer Warren Ellis back to the script splendor of his most famous work, that Transmetropolitan that led him to the forefront of the public. It shares with the great quality to have an original character as a protagonist, "bastard" to the right place, able with his charisma to win the player. Richard Fell, while not sharing anything with apparently Spider Jerusalem, has in common with the future journalists the fascination exerted on the player, resulting from their thoughts and their actions.

If the character of Richard Fell is not already more than enough to make this book worthy of note, the events in which Warren Ellis make it down this volume should not be missed. Stories so surreal to be true, the result of journalistic research documented at the end of the author. Where it comes to reality, the English writer uses his ability to rework key daily events in horror. The result is that the reader can no longer tell where the fiction begins where reality ends and , staying glued to the page.

division in individual, brief episodes proves to be a winning choice. As in fiction, in Fell is possible to distinguish two narrative lines: the rush of each episode, where the secondary becomes the main character in a short cycle of birth and death (narratively speaking), and the slower evolution of the main plot in ' entire volume, one that directly involves the protagonist Richard Fell.
A ' modern architecture, where each carrier is exhausted in the single roll, now adopted by a large number of comic books and has made the fortune of many American TV series of last generation, from CSI to Prison Break. It must be said that in the case of Fell, the discourse functions of the short story is an extreme, since the available space of the narrative is much more restricted (16 pages instead of the usual comics canon 22-24): the can be much better, but even more disastrous.

to underline the particular property " cage" of the table, where in some occasions we find nine vignettes. The choice is not only aesthetic but a double major narrative value. First Division of the page essential for the temporal dimension of the story: not only the player, depending on the sequence of the cartoons were seen as flow time in the story, but puts more emphasis on details that the author and artist wants to put in relief (great cartoons in the first floor), and left to drain more quickly sequences cartoons " identical" (in a manner very similar to that found in "Daredevil " of Bendis and Maleev ).
We could say that the structure is essential for time internal "and" external "of the story, namely that where the story takes place and when it is "perceived " as well as read, the reader.
The division of the table also serves to emphasize certain moments in history, as the picture becomes small and narrow, almost as if the characters " outpour off, the more the reader feels a sense of anxiety and fear of some situation , as if the reader himself to be imprisoned, forced to live the same situation.

Buy it, you will not regret. Since the beginning of 2007 the best money spent on a comic book.
