Comic artists researches. Part 1

Frank Miller:

Frank Miller is an American comic book artist, comic book writer, and screenwriter known for his comic book stories and graphic novels such as his run on Daredevil, for which he created the character Elektra, and subsequent Daredevil: Born Again, The Dark Knight Returns, Batman: Year One, Sin City, and 300.

What is Frank Miller doing now?

On April 28, 2022, it was reported that Miller was launching an American comic book publishing company titled Frank Miller Presents, or FMP. Miller will act as the company's president and editor-in-chief, working alongside Dan DiDio as publisher and chief operating officer Silenn Thomas.

Did Frank Miller draw Daredevil?

He started out with minor tasks, like drawing covers and short stories for Spiderman anthologies. Then, at the beginning of 1979, came the big break: Miller became the official artist for Daredevil, one of Marvel's lesser-known series.

Who influenced Frank Miller?

Among his graphic influences were Neal Adams, Ernie Bushmiller, Guido Crepax, Will Eisner, Jack Kirby and Goseki Kojima. His made his debut in 1978 with contributions to Gold Key's The Twilight Zone. He soon also drew for DC anthologies and Marvel titles like 'Spectacular Spider-Man' and 'John Carter: Warlord of Mars'.

My opinion for this artist of his art style is very interesting for my opinion, that he uses some specific colours for different comic he made for Sin city, Daredevil and 300. As my point of view toward his comic is a mixed with a big art of scene in the comic and four small boxes to show what is going on with that scene which is very interesting to me.

John Romita Jr.:

John Salvatore Romita is an American comics artist best known for his extensive work for Marvel Comics from the 1970s to the 2010s. He is the son of artist John Romita Sr.

When did John Romita Jr draw Spider-Man?

Romita Jr. made a name for himself as a key Marvel artist thanks in large part to his work on Spider-Man. He first drew the character in 1977, as the rising star son of the legendary John Romita Sr., and went on to become one of the definitive pencillers to ever work on the character.

What was the first comic of John Romita Jr?

Romita Jr. began his career at Marvel UK, doing sketches for covers of reprints. His American debut was with a six-page story entitled "Chaos at the Coffee Bean!" in The Amazing Spider-Man Annual (1977)

Is John Romita Jr back at Marvel?

He drew many of Marvel's greatest characters, and then moved to DC for a short period, where he also drew their greatest characters. John Romita Jr. has since returned to Marvel, getting his old job on The Amazing Spider-Man back.

My opinion for this artist of his art style is very pop culture-like as he is uses pop colours for example, red, blue, orange, yellow, etc. As he worked for Marvel as he did his work on Spider-Man as he first dew the character in 1977 as he is going to work back on the Spider-Man for Marvel.

Brian Bolland:

Brian Bolland is a British comics artist. Best known in the United Kingdom as one of the Judge Dredd artists for British comics anthology 2000 AD, he spearheaded the 'British Invasion' of the American comics industry, and in 1982 produced the artwork alongside author Mike W. Barr on Camelot 3000, which was DC Comics' first 12-issue comicbook maxiseries created for the direct market.

What inspired Brian Bolland?

As early as 1962, aged 11, Bolland remembers thinking that "Carmine Infantino's work on the Flash and Gil Kane's on Green Lantern and the Atom had a sophistication about it that I hadn't [previously] seen." He would later cite Kane and Alex Toth as "pinnacle[s] of excellence," alongside Curt Swan, Murphy Anderson

You'll be surprised to hear that even though Judge Dredd had been in 2000AD since Prog 2 the editors weren't sure which of the interior characters would sell the comic best if that character was on the cover. Artists like me just came up with cover ideas and, if they liked them, we'd draw the cover and they would write a one-page text story based on it to go inside. These early covers of mine fall into that category.

Other covers followed for nearly a third of the first 30 progs, as well as stand-alone pages and some inking duties on Gibbons' Dan Dare. Already familiar with Nick Landau (acting editor), when another artist dropped out, Bolland was called directly to complete a Judge Dredd story in Prog 41 (3 Dec 77) and soon was established as a regular artist on the series. "From that point on," writes Bolland, "either he [Landau] or his successor Steve MacManus called me direct whenever they wanted me to do a Dredd story."

Bolland's early work on Judge Dredd was much influenced by McMahon, a talented newcomer whose idiosyncratic style was fuelling the interest in the new character. Bolland thought McMahon was "terrific, the real ideas man on Dredd," but noted that McMahon's approach was "very impressionistic," while the "average comics reader, certainly at the time, does tend to prefer realism." Bolland therefore states that he "aped Mike's genius... and then reinterpreted [Dredd] in a style which actually borrowed a lot from the work of the American artists," retaining McMahon's "granite-jawed" look but bringing a level of realism and fine detail to the character, which Mark Salisbury says "finally cemented the iconic image."

My opinion for this artist of his art style is horrific but in a good way as he is showing us in the comic with joker and batman as showing the Joker a villain in a horrific, disgusting and creepy style as he is showing toward us in world that the style of his is amazing as he did a well done of showing the art style on the comic book to show what horrific is it.

De vele incarnaties van Captain Marvel

Hoewel de nieuwste Marvel film ‘The Marvels’ het alles behalve goed doet aan de box office, zorgt de film toch wel voor wat hernieuwde aandacht voor Captain Marvel. Een goede reden om eens in de geschiedenis van dit personage te duiken. Want hoe zit dat nu met die verschillende Captain Marvels en wie is dan Ms Marvel? En nog belangrijker: zijn er daar comics van in het Nederlands verschenen? 😉 Lees meer 👉

De Oorsprong van Captain Marvel

Laten we voor alle duidelijkheid beginnen met de Captain Marvel van Marvel Comics. Die werd geïntroduceerd in 1967. Mar-Vell was een Kree-soldaat gestationeerd op aarde. Zijn avonturen, in het begin in een groen-wit kostuum, draaiden om thema's als oorlog en het begrip van intergalactische culturen. De 7 eerste delen van de oorspronkelijke Amerikaanse Captain Marvel serie verschenen bij ons in HIP Classics (3 nummers) en een eigen Kapitein Marvel serie (helaas slechts één nummer). 

Mar-Vell's belang in het Marvel-universum groeide helaas voor hem vooral na zijn dood in de baanbrekende strip 'The Death of Captain Marvel' uit 1982. Deze fraaie graphic novel verscheen bij Juniorpress als tweede deel van de ‘Marvelstrip’ reeks.

Monica Rambeau

Na de dood van de oorspronkelijke Captain Marvel nam Monica Rambeau de rol over in 1982. Als een Afro-Amerikaanse vrouw uit New Orleans gaf Monica een nieuwe dynamiek aan de verhalen. Haar krachten (het manipuleren van energie) maakten haar tot een van de machtigste personages in het Marvel-universum. Door de manier waarop ze leiderschap en vastberadenheid toonde werd ze ook een rolmodel voor velen.

Haar eerste verschijning in de Amerikaanse Amazing Spiderman Annual 16 verscheen bij ons in Spectaculaire Spiderman 38.

Haar verdere avonturen kan je volgen in de Roger Stern run op Avengers, bij ons verschenen in Vergelders Special 10 tot 32.

Uiteindelijk zou Monica de rol van Captain Marvel achter zich laten en onder andere zoals Spectrum en Photon verdergaan. 

We zien haar in latere uitgaven wel nog eens terug als Captain Marvel in de Symbiote Spiderman reeks bij Dark Dragon Books.

De Geboorte van Ms. Marvel

In 1977 maakte Carol Danvers haar debuut als Ms. Marvel. Eerder verscheen ze al als een bijfiguur in de avonturen van Mar-Vell. Als officier zonder superkrachten in de United States Air Force maakte ze een dramatische transformatie door na een explosie samen met Captain Marvel in de Amerikaanse Captain Marvel 18. In de Amerikaanse Ms. Marvel 1 uit 1977 keert ze terug met enorme superkrachten.

Van deze periode is bijna niets in het Nederlands verschenen. Enkel in Marvel Superhelden 20 van Juniorpress maakt Carol haar opwachting. Naast een confrontatie met Spiderman uit Marvel Team-up 77 lezen we in dit nummer ook 3 delen uit haar eigen Ms Marvel reeks. 

Als Ms. Marvel werd Danvers een belangrijk lid van de Avengers. Ze komt bij het team in de Amerikaanse Avengers 171, bij ons verschenen in Vergelders 2 bij Juniorpress én in de fraaie Korvac Saga hardcovers bij Dark Dragon Books.

Begin jaren 2000 speelt Carol nog een belangrijke rol als Ms. Marvel in de herstart van de Avengers. Zo duikt ze op als vast personage in de 'Mighty Avengers' reeks. Daarvan zijn de 6 eerste nummers in het Nederlands gebundeld in de 'Renaissance Collectie' die verscheen bij supermarktketen Carrefour.

De Evolutie naar Captain Marvel

Door de jaren heen nam Carol nog verschillende codenamen aan zoals Binary en Warbird. Maar in 2012 kwam er een grote verandering toen ze de titel van Captain Marvel overnam onder het goedkeurende oog van Captain America. Deze verandering was een erkenning van haar plaats als een van de centrale superhelden van het Marvel universum.

De Marvel NOW reeks uit 2014 van schrijfster Kelly Sue Deconnick verscheen hier in 5 delen van de Captain Marvel serie bij de Boekenvoordeel uitgaven van Dark Dragon Books. 

In de Marvel Action reeks van Dark Dragon Books, die gericht is op jonge lezers, verscheen ook nog een deeltje over Captain Marvel.

Ook in het recente All-Out Avengers zie je Carol aan het werk als Captain Marvel. Net als in enkele delen van Marvel Action Avengers en Marvel Action Origins. Allen verschenen bij Dark Dragon Books.

Kamala Khan

In 2014 werd in de VS Kamala Khan geïntroduceerd als de nieuwe Ms. Marvel. Deze Pakistaans-Amerikaanse tiener uit Jersey City werd snel een favoriet bij vele fans door haar verhalen over identiteit, familie en multiculturalisme. Ze schopte het intussen tot een eigen tv-reeks op Disney+ (geregisseerd door het Belgische duo Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah) en ze duikt natuurlijk ook op in de The Marvels film. In de Nederlandstalige comics voorlopig echter nog geen spoor van Kamala…

"What's going on? Matt Murdock rushing to save the Man Without Fear? Don't miss... The Blue Talon strikes!"... A very Marvel take on Silver Age DC covers.

Daredevil #92, October 1972, the first issue where Matt shared top billing with Natasha.

This is the scene, which didn’t mean anything to me as I didn’t know Matt Murdock was Daredevil, that French publisher Lug chose to have redone by artist Jean Frisano for the cover of Strange 90, june 1977, out of the four comics published in that issue (Eternals #1, Daredevil #90, Iron-Man #88, Amazing Spider-Man #93)

I'd never read any Marvel comic before, this cover was weird, but it was the beginning of the Summer holidays, I'd heard about the Spider-Man cartoon that was beginning to air on French TV, this comic bore the subtitle "SPIDERMAN", so I took a chance... and I fell hard for Marvel.

And the splash page... it was pure Marvel soap opera drama! And the art ! Gene Colan and Tom Palmer were at the top of their game! I'd never seen anything like that! I was hooked!

As we have seen in part 2, Spiderman was first adapted as a live action hero in 1977 for the TV series which lasted 3 seasons between 1977 and 1979. Starring Nicholas Hammond as Peter Parker, the series was successful in the US and around the world and spawned 3 theatrical releases piecing several episodes together.

The first of those movies was The Amazing Spider-Man in 1977 of which you can find above the complete set of 10 fotobusta posters printed in Italy for the English speaking markets.

Amazing Spider-Man #171 (August 1977). Len Wein (Writer/Editor), Ross Andru (Illustrator), Mike Esposito (Embellisher), Glynis Wein (Colorist), Joe Rosen (Letterer).

Harry Osborn (son of the original Green Goblin and eventual Goblin himself) is impressed by the “Oriental motif” (oof) of the phone booths in New York’s Chinatown. Chinatown isn’t essential to this part of the story, but it’s interesting to see when and how Marvel’s NYC inhabitants travel through it: the scene is presented more as an everyday part of life for these characters, an ideal setting for a night out on the town, a chance for Marvel’s creators to show readers from and beyond NYC a quick snapshot of the city. I haven’t seen many scenes in Chinatown yet, but it will be interesting to see how and where the space is imagined and used, or if it is primarily an “Oriental” backdrop for the Marvel Universe’s predominantly-white cast of characters.
