Strážci - Watchmen - 2.vydání


Dekonstrukce superhrdinských komiksů "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" ptali se už latiníci. Kdo střeží ty, kdož střeží nás? Je těžké dohlédnout na ty, kteří mají moc, i když jsou to normální lidé - a co teprve když mají schopnosti, o kterých se nám ani nesnilo. Strážci se dívají na svět superhrdinů novým pohledem, ničí mýty a balancuje na pokraji apokalypsy. Nabízí obyčejné lidi s neobyčejnými schopnostmi. Lidi někdy kruté, se svými úchylkami a tajnostmi, se špínou schovanou pod maskami. Ovšem lidi velmi mocné (a v jednom případě i všemocné). Jeden z nejzásadnějších komiksů všech dob.

Comic book design


When we think of comics it is all too easy to reduce them to pictures and word bubbles. Thats less than half of the story: a good comic relies on an awareness of page layout, framing, point of view, pacing, spacing, lettering and many other techniques, which - paradoxically - are often invisible to the lay reader. Written by an award-winning comics artist, writer and editor, this volume is the most thorough exploration to date of the possibilities offered by the comics medium to the writer or artist alive to its unique grammar. Using hundreds of examples of art from some of the biggest and most-respected names in comics, Gary Spencer Millidge lifts the lid on the technique and thought which underpins the best comics, providing a fascinating insight for readers, writers and artists alike.

Strážci - Watchmen


Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? ptali se už latiníci. Kdo střeží ty, kdož střeží nás? Je těžké dohlédnout na ty, kteří mají moc, i když jsou to normální lidé a co teprve když mají schopnosti, o kterých se nám ani nesnilo. V roce 1984 vyšly dva komiksy, které změnily žánr a dodnes se fanoušci hádají, který z nich je zásadnější. V jednom hrál hlavní roli Batman a Frank Miller ho pojmenoval Návrat temného rytíře a u druhého si Alan Moore vystačil s jediným slovem. Watchmen, tedy Strážci. Oba komiksy mají hodně společného. Oba se dívají na svět superhrdinů novým pohledem, oba ničí mýty a oba balancují na pokraji apokalypsy. Ale tam, kde Miller ještě nabízí pozitivního superhrdinu, tam už má Moore obyčejné lidi s neobyčejnými schopnostmi. Lidi někdy kruté, se svými úchylkami a tajnostmi, se špínou schovanou pod maskami. Ovšem lidi velmi mocné (a v jednom případě i všemocné).

Confabulation: An Anecdotal Autobiography By Dave Gibbons


This comprehensive, in-depth, and personal journey through the eyes of one of the world's most famous comics creators, Dave Gibbons, spans his earliest years copying Superman and Batman comics as a kid, to co-creating the bestselling graphic novel of all-time, Watchmen, and beyond. Presented alphabetically, with informally written anecdotes that can be read from cover-to-cover or simply dipped into, Gibbons reveals unseen comics' pitches, life as the first Comics Laureate, and going from being a fanzine artist to infiltrating DC Comics in the 1970s. The book covers everything from working on Doctor Who and meeting Tom Baker to being inducted into the Eisner Hall of Fame. Gibbons also discusses, for the first time anywhere, the reasons why he and fellow Watchmen co-creator Alan Moore no longer speak. Packed with over 300 iconic, rarely seen, and unpublished art pieces and photographs, Confabulation: An Anecdotal Autobiography not only entertains, but peels back the layers of a fascinating career in comics.
