      <title>Strip Panel Naked: 'Underwinter' And Ray Fawkes' Art Of Change</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/ray-fawkes-underwinter-art/</link>
      <pubDate>Wed, 29 Mar 2017 17:00:48 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Ray Fawkes is back, bringing his staple watercolour art to the first issue of The Underwinter. The majority of the book is rendered in a particular style, but Fawkes changes his approach fairly dramatically for a single sequence near the end of the book. It's a similar technique to a few different things I've talked about in this column on other occasions, but there's a very interesting element to it that makes this particular example a little different, and worth further exploration. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/ray-fawkes-underwinter-art/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>In Her Element: The Art of Ramona Fradon</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/ramona-fradon-comic-art-gallery/</link>
      <pubDate>Fri, 24 Mar 2017 19:30:51 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Ramona Fradon is one of the greatest comic book artists of DC's Silver Age, and indeed one of the most important comics artists of all time. She was a woman working in a male-dominated industry back in what we 21st Century folks like to call the Mad Men era. As such, she hasn't always gotten the same respect as her male peers, but her work nevertheless helped built what we now think of as the language of superhero comics. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/ramona-fradon-comic-art-gallery/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>Strip Panel Naked: The Perfect Pacing Of 'Kill or be Killed'</title>

      <description><![CDATA[I'm a firm believer that comics aren't a medium that favor page after page of dialogue, so you need interesting ways to present that information.

      <title>Asian-American Iron Fist Captures Artists' Imaginations</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/anka-ganucheau-iron-fist-redesign/</link>
      <pubDate>Tue, 21 Mar 2017 13:00:44 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Thanks to the Netflix television show, Iron Fist is a character that's on a lot of people's minds, but not quite for the reasons Marvel may want. The casting of Finn Jones is regarded by many as an ill-conceived choice that adheres too closely to the comics and leans on tropes of the white savior.

Inspired by Kris Anka's 2015 redesign of the character as an Asian-American hero, some of comics' best artists have offered their own interpretations of this more badass, more culturally relevant, and --- let's be honest --- more downright sexy Danny Rand. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/anka-ganucheau-iron-fist-redesign/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <pubDate>Mon, 20 Mar 2017 14:30:47 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[One of the most interesting developments in Power Rangers has come in the pages of Boom's Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic, in which Billy and Zack have journeyed to a nightmare dystopia where Tommy never overcame his evil origins, and conquered the world as Emperor Drakkon. He's not keeping the power to himself, though --- he's given the Rangers' power to a team of elite (and evil) warriors, designed by Jamal Campbell in collaboration with Saban Brands. They are... the Power Ranger Sentries. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/mighty-morphin-power-rangers-sentries/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>Master of Horror: A Tribute to Bernie Wrightson</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/tribute-bernie-wrightson/</link>
      <pubDate>Sun, 19 Mar 2017 16:00:04 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Horror is a notoriously difficult genre to pull off in comics. The reader controls the pace, so scares and surprises don't work the same way they do in other media, and once you've seen enough of them, shocking twist endings can feel routine. Every now and then, though, there's a creator who has the ability to pull it off, crafting unforgettable visuals and a moody setting that feels oppressive, unknown and terrifying, and Bernie Wrightson, born this day in 1948, is unquestionably one of the masters.

Over the course of a career that began in 1968, Wrightson has crafted stories full of twisted figures and haunting apparitions, and he's never stopped experimenting with how he can do it better. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/tribute-bernie-wrightson/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[There's a really famous set of panels that Wally Wood curated over the years, traditionally referred to as "Wally Wood's 22 Panels That Always Work!!". It's a set of panels that will always work when, as an artist, you're stuck in a situation of characters speaking to each other page after page. sometimes it's necessary for the story, so these 22 panels are ways to visually change up your visuals through the pages. 

In Sons of Anarchy: Redwood Original #8, by Ollie Masters, Eoin Marron, Adam Metcalfe and Ed Dukeshire, there are a few pages that really highlight how Marron has a clear grasp of those panels. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/sons-of-anarchy-redwood-original-wally-wood-panels/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>Unnaturally Large And Dangerous: The Best Giant Monster Covers Ever</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/best-giant-monster-comic-covers/</link>
      <pubDate>Wed, 15 Mar 2017 15:00:55 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Some monsters are surprisingly small, no bigger than a person or smaller still. They intimidate psychologically or with supernatural powers, not with size and strength. But then there are monsters that are big. Giant monsters are easy to understand. They are to humans what we are to ants, and we all know all too well how many ants we've stepped on.

With Monsters Unleashed going on at Marvel, and Kong: Skull Island currently in theaters, this feels like a great time to pay tribute to the various giant beasts and kaiju that have graced the covers of comic books for about as long as comics have existed. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/best-giant-monster-comic-covers/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Ghost In The Shell is on a lot of people's minds right now, and while the upcoming Scarlett Johansson-starring Western cinematic adaptation is garnering its fair share of controversy it has made people re-evaluate and reappraise their love for Masamune Shirow's classic manga.

      <title>Trailblazer: The Marvel Art of Marie Severin</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/marie-severin-art-gallery/</link>
      <pubDate>Thu, 09 Mar 2017 20:00:22 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Marie Severin was a woman in comics in an era when a woman in comics wasn't even considered a thing to be. She got her start as a colorist at EC Comics in 1949, and worked there until they were largely driven out of business by the Comics Code in 1955. Severin wouldn't return to comics until the '60s, where she found a new home at Marvel.

For this tribute gallery, I've focused on her pencilling work at Marvel. As a penciler, she's probably best remembered for working on Dr. Strange in Strange Tales, Incredible Hulk, and Namor the Sub-Mariner, but she drew fill-in issues and covers for many, many books.  <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/marie-severin-art-gallery/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>Strip Panel Naked: The Direct Approach of 'Royal City'</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/jeff-lemire-panel-framing-royal-city/</link>
      <pubDate>Wed, 08 Mar 2017 18:00:18 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[I've been a fan of Jeff Lemire ever since I first read The Essex Country Trilogy five or so years ago. Through a lot of the stories where he's been writer and artist, there's a very direct approach to framing that he rarely deviates from, particularly in work such as the current Image Comics series Royal City, where he takes a more down-to-earth tack.

It's hard to tell if this is something Lemire is doing purposefully to create this effect, or if it's just the style of his art. Either way, the effect it creates is perfect for the character-focused, humanising stories that Lemire typically tells. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/jeff-lemire-panel-framing-royal-city/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[For as much as I love the madness that was the comics of the 1990s, I cannot even imagine how incredible it must have been to be a comic-loving kid (or weird comic loving adult) in the 1950/60s period known as The Silver Age.

Within this gallery, I've put together only the smallest of fractions of some of the entertaining, out-of-context fun that The Flash's Silver Age adventures have made possible. Try your best to make sense of them. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/weird-silver-age-flash-comics/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>Good Thing: Andrea Sorrentino's Grounded Approach To Logan</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/andrea-sorrentino-logan/</link>
      <pubDate>Thu, 02 Mar 2017 14:00:56 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Superheroes are usually all about flying around, big fights, and being larger than life. In Old Man Logan, the outgoing creative team of Andrea Sorrentino, Jeff Lemire and Marcelo Maiolo mixes that with a slightly different approach.

In this series, Logan remains pretty grounded. His costume becomes a brown leather jacket, and most of the time his fights are pretty brutal, and mostly involve people getting straight up punched in the face. And it all hinges on Sorrentino's take on Wolverine. It's leaning heavily on realism, with sharp blacks that add a noirish vibe. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/andrea-sorrentino-logan/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[The first time anyone reads a Geof Darrow comic, I can only imagine them having the exact same experience of their head exploding in some over-the-top, ridiculous way that only Darrow could illustrate. His brand of hyper-detailed hyper-violence is hard to replicate, and even just seeing a single panel of his work is enough to know that Darrow is unlike any other. So it's definitely a Good Thing that Darrow is heading back to comics this year with a new mini-series of Shaolin Cowboy. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/geof-darrow-shaolin-cowboy-return-2017/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[While the Golden Age established comics as a medium, the Silver Age was when comic book art really came into its own. And it's worth noting that comics' Silver Age corresponded with a wider cultural fascination with science fiction. The actual Space Race was in full swing, and everybody was thinking about rocket ships, alien monsters, and the wonders of science.

This gallery collects some of the best sci-fi comic book covers of the Silver Age, featuring strange invaders, curious tech, and multiple threats to life as we know it. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/best-silver-age-sci-fi-covers-gallery/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

The actual Space Race was in full swing, and everybody was thinking about rocket ships, alien monsters, and the wonders of science.

This gallery collects some of the best sci-fi comic book covers of the Silver Age, featuring strange invaders, curious tech, and multiple threats to life as we know it. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/best-silver-age-sci-fi-covers-gallery/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></content:encoded>

      <description><![CDATA[One of the ideas explored by Scott McCloud in Reinventing Comics is the notion of the comics page as infinite canvas, doing things a print comic could never hope to do. Many comics makers from the 2000s online comics scene took up the challenge, and one of the standouts was --- and is --- UK artist Daniel Merlin Goodbrey. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/daniel-merlin-goodbrey-hypercomics/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>Strip Panel Naked: Cascading Panels in David Finch's 'Batman'</title>

      <pubDate>Wed, 22 Feb 2017 19:00:38 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[My favourite thing about writing Strip Panel Naked every week is getting the chance to be surprised. A smarter man might have a better plan to tackle this article routinely, but mine is always the same: read comics, be surprised. This week it was the first comic on the pile that caught me off-guard, with Tom King, David Finch, Danny Miki, Jordie Bellaire and John Workman's Batman #17, as part of DC's Rebirth.

There's a technique Finch employs throughout the issue to create a sense that everything is slowly unravelling and falling apart, in that he lets the panels start slipping away on each page. You can see how the pages aren't formulaic in their approach to panel layout; there's not really any grids, and panels are constantly overlapping. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/strip-panel-naked-batman-david-finch/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>The Greatest Romance Comic Covers Ever</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/strangest-romance-comic-covers/</link>
      <pubDate>Fri, 17 Feb 2017 22:40:35 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Since romance comics had gone out of style well before I was born, I had no idea just how popular and prolific the genre had been. I had always assumed it was some kind of short-lived craze that fizzled out like other comic fads, but then I started noticing how high the issue numbers were on so many of the covers I selected. Turns out romance comics enjoyed an incredibly successful three-decade run from the late 1940s to the late 1970s. I also learned that the comic that launched the genre, 1947’s Young Romance, was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby! You know, the guys that created Captain America a few years earlier.

This was without question the easiest one of these galleries I’ve ever had to pull together, because almost every single cover I came across was a home run. They’re all just amazing! There was no sorting and sifting and really trying to get through all the underwhelming garbage to get to the good stuff. It’s all good stuff. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/strangest-romance-comic-covers/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>Strip Panel Naked: Breaking the Mold In 'Death be Damned'</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/strip-panel-death-be-damned/</link>
      <pubDate>Thu, 16 Feb 2017 16:00:41 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Striking imagery in any visual medium can only really come about when taken in isolation. You could have a comic that is full of stunning pages, image after image of the most gorgeously rendered scenes ever, and it can lose context in book form. By overloading incredible imagery, it becomes commonplace, and you have to work even harder to sell a visual that you might need to be particularly stunning. If you could take a single image out of said book and present it in isolation, that beauty would flood backs to it.

You can achieve this effect pretty easily in comics when you restrict your style to a set look and feel, and then bring in small changes when necessary to create a massive change to the images. For an example, check out the new book Death be Damned, by Ben Acker, Ben Blacker, Andrew Miller, Hannah Christenson, Juan Useche, and Colin Bell. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/strip-panel-death-be-damned/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>

      <title>The Kinkiest Moments In Golden Age 'Wonder Woman' Comics</title>
      <link>https://comicsalliance.com/golden-age-wonder-woman-kink-gallery/</link>
      <pubDate>Wed, 15 Feb 2017 22:00:12 GMT</pubDate>
      <description><![CDATA[Everybody knows that Golden Age Wonder Woman can be pretty kinky. In fact, people joke about it constantly. After all, credited Wonder Woman writer William Moulton Marston was collaborating on the stories with his two wives, Elizabeth Holloway and Olive Byrne, and they were all known to be into some stuff that went far beyond their polyamory. And whether artist Harry G. Peter was in on the implications of what he was drawing or not, he gave it his all.

So in a spirit of openness and positivity, we've dug through the first five years or so of Wonder Woman comics in search of kink. And if anybody had doubts, the kink is definitely there. <a href="https://comicsalliance.com/golden-age-wonder-woman-kink-gallery/">Continue reading&hellip;</a>]]></description>
