Coleman Crawdad And Engine Size

Named Desire That Obscure Object

Ah, the beauty of symmetry, especially when it is unintentional silent, due to sheer chance ...
Two authors who do not know or Eve to Adam, who operate in two worlds at the antipodes of each other, with a feature radically different, and yet will produce nearly identical boards ...
it will be on the universality of desire and subtle ways to sublimate when not shared, even when it is forbidden object of opprobrium

What Spices Would Be Good In Chicken Soup?

And if he stays right with them? BORN AGAIN

Coverage was tempting: Herbert, back, pointing to a castle, obviously his father, as the title suggests "Back with a bang." I was expecting a classic number, appeased, intended to revive the series by throwing a few revelations Dungeon and closing a few lines of the plot after a few numbers that left a little in all directions. What
chi! That's not counting without the thirst for destruction of Trondheim and his clique. This time, the playground will be devastating to their impulses Vaucasson, birthplace of Herbert, corrupt and decadent city, just like all of Terra Amata. A space in particular shows the decline. This is the Coliseum in ruins, where, amid empty stands, the scions of the nobility receive a Spartan education they can no longer integrate:

Dungeon , Trondheim, Sfar and Boulet, 2007

A sadistic teacher, took slightly contreplongée, Greco-Roman ruins, the recycling machine Dungeon could draw his Inpiration that there:

Knights of the Zodiac, Kurumada, 1986

Ok, Teacher sadistic there has tons in the world of comics, but let's face it, driving the little orphans foundation Graad (who were also aristocrats, since Mr. Kido bastards), it reached heights of sophistication ...

Then twist. How-did not see coming? Herbert enters the Coliseum and is transformed into a creature indefinable, like the famous Tetsuo tranformation of mass in the sprawling stage of Neo-Tokyo:



Akira, Otomo, 1993

The point remains sadly empty coliseum, the action moves then to the scenes of shows, the maze of corridors surrounding the two buildings and swarming them a small world, particularly dozens of soldiers who will soon be turned into dog food:





short, the connection between Herbert and Tetsuo seems explicit. Ultimately, their fate is so different? They are the heralds of the Apocalypse that will destroy the old corrupt world, that is born from the ashes in a new ...

Actresses Without Clothes Boobs



It itched for a few weeks, more exactly since I have a new toy on my desk, scanner, initially directed towards my professional life (we believe!), But whose applications playful n ' were soon found myself.
New technologies, new blog then. New birth, as Born Again that during the holidays I finally dug up with some other boxes of comics, from the cellar where they languished since my mother had moved. Proofreading, and a little surprise: these plans with the hero sleeping in a fetal position, I think I have ever seen ... Was not this the very irritating and, admittedly, pretty exciting Journal Fabrice Neaud?


Born Again, Miller and Mazzucchelli, 1987

Journal (I) , Neaud, 1998

Back in Toulouse and verification, to confirm that it was in the newspaper, and it does not stop there:




Elsewhere in his diary, Neaud we already spoke of his love for American comics. No wonder he uses a representation of the fallen hero to talk about himself. Finally, relativize, Matt Murdock sleeps in the trash because Kingpin managed to strike out the legal profession, has dragged its name in the mud, destroyed his house, and froze its bank accounts, while Neaud spirit is crying for a guy with whom he slept one night a few months ago and he harasses somewhat since then. But there is no scale in misfortune, is not it?

short, it's still a nice tribute, and it was through him that I open this blog and his series of approximation more or less risky. And as a bonus, to mourn the news, read in this morning's newspaper, the divorce of MJ and Peter Parker after 20 years of happy marriage, a final image of the warrior's rest:
