#comicsmatter

Today’s the birthday of one of my favorite artists of all time. Jaime Hernandez, co-creator of Love And Rockets, the best comic ever IMHO. When I met him at SPX I told him his work changed my life & he quipped “for the better I hope?” Definitely for the better. #comics #comicsmatter #besthobby

(godfuckingdamn) #RachelRising Been living w/ this all last wk, it's incredibly awesome. Art Writing Lettering Concept One of the best two season cable shows you never saw—OR: the reason #comicsmatter... —got nearly a year ago, based on a sub preview—which i don't remember—& the size (almost 900p) kept it on the #toread pile. So glad i got it & had a chance to read—experience it. ❤️💕👍 thanks #TerryMoore for showing how #comics are as good as tv movies books literature—& "art" in every sense. https://www.instagram.com/p/CAVe8CAg2-_/?igshid=hvydv9prazfq

heavy stuff & utterly brilliant; painful yet nostalgic, & heartbreaking. #Blankets by #CraigThompson. this is up there w/ the best of both graphics & novels. Earning the true meaning of that term #comicsmatter #comics #recentreads #recommended Weird True Fact: went to school w/ a "Craig Thompson"—NOT the same guy. N. IL, not WI. He was built like a brick wall of a linebacker (w/o the muscles) & his claim to fame was that he supposedly once sucked a cigarette from cherry to filter in a single drag.... "ah, highschool..." a million yrs ago, but so formative. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0KUctqg5KT/?igshid=1q0kzo9urqbiu
