Sarjakuvavisa 2/2018

“Mitä tulee Touhulan perheenpään leipään?”
Sarjan luonut Chick Young ei koskaan tarkalleen määritellyt sen sisältöä, mutta meillä on Touhulan perheen mukaan luodun Blondie-ketjuravintolan repepti:
– kolme palaa leipää
– Genoa salamia
– Kinkkua
– Pepperonia
– Kalkkunaa
– Cheddar-juustoa
– Provolone-juustoa
– Lehtisalaattia
– Tomaattia
– Paahdettuja punapippureita
– Banana peppers (jalopenon näköinen, mutta miedompi)
– Punasipulia
– Sinappia
– Vähäkalorista majoneesia

Leipä painaa n. 700 grammaa.

“Death is the only major character whose visuals didn’t spring from me; that credit goes to Mike Dringenberg.

In my original Sandman outline, I suggested Death look like rock star Nico in 1968, with the perfect cheekbones and perfect face she has on the cover of her Chelsea Girl album.

But Mike Dringenberg had his own ideas, so he sent me a drawing based on a woman he knew named Cinamon Hadley — the drawing that was later printed in Sandman 11 — and I looked at it and had the immediate reaction of, “Wow. That’s really cool.”

Later that day, Dave McKean and I went to dinner in Chelsea at the My Old Dutch Pancake House and the waitress who served us was a kind of vision.
She was American, had long black hair, was dressed entirely in black — black jeans, T-shirt, etc. — and wore a big silver ankh on a silver necklace. And she looked exactly like Mike Dringenberg’s drawing of Death.”

“This hasn’t been a great year for comics. In fact, I wasn’t even able to find ten good comics for this top ten list.

Making a list of the top ten comics of 2017 was difficult since ten good comics didn’t get published this year.
Even the AV Club, which is almost always right, made a top ten list that was mostly worthless garbage.
To some the purpose of a list like this is to serve as a gift guide but that’s shameful to me.
The reason for these lists is to discuss creative works that were made this year that have some lasting value, not to be a distraction or an advertisement.”

Myöskin listan kohdat 9-10 oli jätetty tyhjäksi.
