Two lost souls. One dying planet. It’s time to reclaim the future… in Long Cold Winter #comics #comicbooks

From Mad Cave Studios, writer Francesca Perillo, and artist Stefano Cardoselli, comes their newest sci-fi dystopian confection, Long Cold Winter. In the not-too-distant future, the air on Earth has become unbreathable. However, a multinational company called Air Co. has constructed generators that provide oxygen for those who can afford it. Peace Dog, a desperate ex-soldier, who has been willing…

Love Me: A Romance Story reads like a delightful mash-up of WALL-E and Taxi Driver, delivering an unpredictable journey across its first several issues. This colorful story introduces Jojo, a taxi-driving robot who smiles in the face of a city in active protest against his very existence, and takes him on a whirlwind ride in search of love.

Love Me: A Romance Story #1 and #2 – written by Francesca Perillo, with art by Stefano Cardoselli – situates Jojo in a hostile futuristic New York, with graffiti and anti-robot slogans plastered on each colorful and chaotic building. Yet, Jojo seems to be content with his routine, pleased to put on some Nina Simone and help his riders get where they're going. The story of Love Me takes off when Jojo meets passenger Gilda, initiating an adventure that has so far embodied a diverse set of influences and genre conventions.

Jojo is Willing to Fight the Mob for Gilda

Love Me: A Romance Story #1 – Written By Francesca Perillo; Art By Stefano Cardoselli, Lorenzo Scaramella and Buddy Beaudoin)

Gilda is a classic-film-and-Nina Simone-loving character, offering Jojo a glimpse of the partnership he craves. When they exchange numbers and make plans to meet that night, the hopeful robot is overwhelmed with joy. Unfortunately, Jojo's brief taste of human connection plunges him into despair when Gilda fails to show up for their movie date. As Frida the cat narrates, Jojo withdraws from the things that typically bring him joy, refraining from work and skipping his daily coffee. Unexpectedly, that is when Gilda reaches back out, asking for help.

The colorful and eclectic artwork of Love Me reflects the beautiful outlook of its hero. The stunning chaos is drawn the way Jojo sees the world – as a kaleidoscope of different people and experiences. It's no surprise, then, that Jojo is so deeply passionate as a character, risking everything for a woman he met once. Further, he continues to pursue her rescue even after he's warned by Wizard of the deadly nature of his situation. Frida may be right that Jojo is too optimistic, but she is wrong to believe he is naive.

As the plot of Love Me progresses, Jojo in turn calls his boss, Wizard, at the taxi depot, looking for more information on Alfio's. The mob restaurant was only detail given to him by his damsel in distress. Wizard lets him in on the drama Gilda has found herself embroiled in, having rejected marriage proposals from the mafioso heir, Carmelo, twice. Ignoring Wizard's warnings, Jojo goes directly to Alfio's in pursuit of Gilda and her cry for help. Overall, so far, the story of Love Me has moved forward as a powerful imperative, a pleading wish.

Each frame overflows with imagery, sometimes literally unable to contain the artwork. The narration and dialogue are both raw and emotional, fraught with questions and opinions deeply colored by the environment of the hostile city. Through it all, Jojo hunts love like a cat, quiet and insistent. Having briefly found the missing piece to his happiness, nothing will stop him from getting it back. As calmly as he pursues his daily life, the besotted robot will cut through the city's underbelly like a knife, asking "Where's Gilda?" in this wild tale reminiscent of Taxi Driver meets WALL-E.

Love Me #1-2 are available now from Mad Cave Studios.

#ThreeForThursday:

Portrait of a gyrfalcon, viewed from three sides Lombard Master, c.1540-1560 oil on canvas, unlined via Sotheby's "The sport of falconry, practiced since ancient times, was a pursuit particularly enjoyed at Medieval and Renaissance courts.  The gyrfalcon, shown here, is the largest of the falcon species; the size of the bird, almost certainly painted from life and to scale, suggests it is a female, and the grandeur of the portrait, presenting it from three viewpoints, raised above the clouds, indicates it was both a cherished pet and valued hunting companion.  While incredibly rare, such portraits were not unprecedented.  In a letter in the Gonzaga ducal archives, addressed to one Scaramella, the sender requests that a white gyrfalcon be sent to Mantua to be seen by Costa (likey Lorenzo Costa, the court painter) for a commissioned portrait.... Sumptuary laws of the period dictated that only the most elite nobility be permitted to hunt with gyrfalcons; the owner of this majestic bird must therefore have been a person of elevated status, and the symbolism of the oak and poplar trees, in whose branches the bird sits, most likely holds the key to their identity.  While the oak was an emblem traditionally assumed by the della Rovere, the ducal family of Urbino, this hand does not match any of the artists working for that court during the period.  This striking portrait of a gyrfalcon likely dates between 1540 and 1560 and, while the identity of its author remains unknown, is undoubtedly the work of an extraordinarily accomplished Lombard master. The exceptional preservation of the canvas and paint surface allows us to fully appreciate the artist's prowess in the depiction of light and texture, capturing the dancing movement of the leaves and the varied textures of the plumage.  The accuracy and impeccable detail of the depiction harks to the established tradition of still life painting and the popularity of exact images of naturalia in sixteenth century Lombardy.  These precise representations of animals, birds, insects and plants were circulated by men of science and swiftly became objects highly coveted by aristocratic collectors throughout Europe.2  One artist born of this encyclopedic manner of painting was Giuseppe Arcimboldo; Mauro Natale suggests that the anonymous author of this painting may well have been an artist working within Arcimboldo’s sphere."

Lombard Master, 1540 – 1560, Portrait of a gyrfalcon, viewed from three sides.

The sport of falconry, practiced since ancient times, was a pursuit particularly enjoyed at Medieval and Renaissance courts. The gyrfalcon, shown here, is the largest of the falcon species; the size of the bird, almost certainly painted from life and to scale, suggests it is a female, and the grandeur of the portrait, presenting it from three viewpoints, raised above the clouds, indicates it was both a cherished pet and valued hunting companion. While incredibly rare, such portraits were not unprecedented. In a letter in the Gonzaga ducal archives, addressed to one Scaramella, the sender requests that a white gyrfalcon be sent to Mantua to be seen by Costa (likey Lorenzo Costa, the court painter) for a commissioned portrait:

"Scaramella, volemo che domani mandi a Mantua, o porti, el nostro ziriflco bianco et lo faccci vedere al Costa a' qual havemo dato comissione che lo retraghi"1

Sumptuary laws of the period dictated that only the most elite nobility be permitted to hunt with gyrfalcons; the owner of this majestic bird must therefore have been a person of elevated status, and the symbolism of the oak and poplar trees, in whose branches the bird sits, most likely holds the key to their identity. While the oak was an emblem traditionally assumed by the della Rovere, the ducal family of Urbino, this hand does not match any of the artists working for that court during the period. This striking portrait of a gyrfalcon likely dates between 1540 and 1560 and, while the identity of its author remains unknown, is undoubtedly the work of an extraordinarily accomplished Lombard master.
