KOTIMAISET UUTUUDET

Tuula Mäkelä: Rappuset

Miltä hirvestä tuntuu, kun se pudottaa sarvensa?
Miltä maistuu härän mahalaukku?
Tietävätkö sirpaleet onnea?
Mitä Katri Helena laulaa Lui-nimisessä kappaleessa?
Onko taivaalla mustia aukkoja?

Aitta oli ollut pihassa aina.
Ala-aitassa oli moottorisaha ja Fiatin talvirenkaat.

Yläaitassa säilytettiin kaikkea jännää muistoina ja kaiken varalta. Rappuset on kertomus isän ja tyttären yhteisestä kesäpäivästä, jonka aikana korjataan aitan rappusten rikkoutunut askelma.
Päivä vaikuttaa aluksi aivan tavalliselta, mutta sen mittaan saadaan vastaus moneen kysymykseen.

Tuula Mäkelä on Kyyjärvellä vuonna 1979 syntynyt ja kasvanut sarjakuvantekijä, joka opettaa graafista suunnittelua Ikaalisten käsi- ja taideteollisuusoppilaitoksessa.
Talvisin hän tykkää tehdä pahkatöitä ja kesäisin pelastaa kimalaisia ynnä muita uimataidottomia veden varasta.

Rappuset on hänen ensimmäinen sarjakuvakirjansa.

Keijo Ahlqvist: Taide

Taide on taiteen tekemisen pieni filosofinen opas, taiteen luennan lyhyt ja pitkä oppimäärä, aforistinen, uniikki, ruuduton ja rajaton sarjakuvateos.

Taide on itsereflektiivinen, vallaton valtaus, vapauttava tapahtuma ja vaurautta tiiviydessään.

Taide on Keijo Ahlqvistin kolmas oma sarjakuvakirja, elämänmittaisen ajattelutyön kypsä hedelmä.

Piirtäjänä Keijo Ahlqvist (s. 1955, edelleen elossa) on suuri pelkistäjä. Hän tiivistää oleellisen muutamilla viivoilla, eikä sanojakaan tuhlailla. Lopputulos patistaa lukijaa ajattelemaan (myös) itse.

Sarjakuvaneuvoksen arvonimellä palkittu Ahlqvist piirsi Kemissä kunnalliskertomuksia sarjakuvamuotoon, kunnallispoliittista Kemistit-sarjakuvaa Sortteeriin ja laati yhdessä Ari Kutilan kanssa ensimmäisen suomalaisen sarjakuvan oppikirjan Piirrä sarjakuvaa! (1988).

Vuonna 2000 Ahlqvist oli perustamassa Limingan taidekouluun sarjakuvalinjaa.
Hän opetti siellä vuoteen 2017 asti, vaikka välillä kirjautui kouluun opiskelijaksi: ensin 2009 kuvataidelinjalle ja 2015 omalle sarjakuvalinjalleen.
Ahlqvistille ominaista on pyrkiä tutkimaan asioiden kaikki puolet.

Hiljaiselo omien teosten suhteen loppui vuonna 2019, jolloin Ahlqvistin sarjakuvia julkaistiin kahtena kirjana, K ei joo (Täysi Käsi) ja Kaunakirja (Zum Teufel).
Eläkkeelle jäämisensä jälkeen Ahlqvistin uteliaisuus todellisuuden olemuksesta ei ole sammunut. Päinvastoin, lakkaamattoman pohdiskelun tuloksia piirtyy paperille hurjaa tahtia.

Keijo Ahlqvistin mukaan taide ei ole ensisijaisesti ammatti eikä varsinkaan palkkatyö. Taide on vapaus, joka kuuluu kaikille. Taide elää meissä kaikissa, kunhan sen antaa elää.

Kirjan esipuheen on kirjoittanut Ahlqvistin kollega, entinen oppilas ja opettaja Tessa Astre.

Diaz Canales & Guardino: Blacksad 6 – Kun kaikki sortuu 1. osa

Blacksad on yksi 2000-luvun suosituimmista sarjakuvista.

Kissahahmoisen etsivän seikkailut sijoittuvat 40-50-lukujen Yhdysvaltoihin, jossa korruptio rehottaa ja ongelmat ratkaistaan nyrkeillä tai pyssyillä.
Tarinat huokuvat perinteistä dekkaritunnelmaa ja maalattu kuvitus on pullollaan kiehtovia yksityiskohtia.

Kaikki sarjan viisi aiempaa osaa on julkaistu suomeksi, ja uutta albumia on odotettu innokkaasti.

Tällä kertaa Blacksad sotkeutuu gryndereiden ja politiikan kiemuroihin. Yksinkertainen henkivartijan työ johtaa sankarimme syvälle rakennusalan synkälle puolelle, ja kun raha puhuu, turvassa ei ole kukaan.

Miten Blacksadin vanhat ystävät ja kunnianhimoinen teatteriseurue liittyvät New Yorkin massiivisiin rakennusprojekteihin?
Upeasti piirretty albumi tarjoaa yllätyksiä ja vauhdikkaita käänteitä alusta loppuun asti.

Dav Pilkey: Koiramies – Kenelle pallot soivat

Koiramies kohtaa uuden superrikollisen ja yrittää päästä eroon vanhoista huonoista tavoistaan.

Lukeminen antaa supervoimia! Neropattiakin suositumpi sarja tuo iloa koululaisten arkeen.

Mukana uusissa seikkailussa jälleen myös Pete, maailman häijyin kissa, ja Pikku-Pete, hyvis kissanpentu.
Kun Peten oma isä saapuu paikalle, Peten pitää kohdata menneisyytensä ja oppia ymmärtämään elämän suuria arvoja.

Seitsemäs ratkiriemukas Koiramies-sarjiskirja. Jaana Kapari-Jatan kekseliäs suomennos.

Kymmenen vuotta myöhemmin Römpötti nostaa Taas päin näköä -kirjassa esiin tusinan seuraavan sukupolven taiteilijoita.

But with Loki and the Enchantress on the attack, the planet’s fi nest team of heroes sorely misses the might power of one of its founding members. Where is Thor, and will he be reborn in time to save the day?

Jonathan Hickman & Esad Ribic: Ultimate Comics – The Ultimates 1 (K)

KÄYTETTY.

Nations fall, gods die, and Earth’s mightiest heroes face their ultimate challenge!

Iron Man, Thor and Hawkeye form the core of the Ultimates – S.H.I.E.L.D.’s finest fighting force, all too often the only thing keeping the world from total disaster.
But when the walls of the mysterious City open up and the hyper-evolved Children of Tomorrow spill out, the Ultimates suddenly find themselves powerless against an unbeatable enemy.

And even as Thor’s Asgardian brethren fall before the Children, the God of Thunder makes a startling discovery about this incredible new threat – which might not be such a new threat after all!

COLLECTING: ULTIMATE COMICS ULTIMATES #1-6.
