Love and Fulfillment: On the Lil Depressed Boy, Parks and Recreation and Neal Cassady:

The Li’l Depressed Boy #16, Parks & Recreation and The Last Time I Committed Suicide: all three are concerned with its characters finding some amount of fulfillment. Here I take a shallow dive into the topic.

What the Influence?: On Batman #19, Cartoons and Music:

While some comic writers and artists find inspiration in the past or the future or other artists or other genres, there are others that choose to jump platforms and find a muse in, say, television. Case in point: Batman #19…

We at Monster Comics love The Li’l Depressed Boy and Kepi Ghoulie, so much so that we did a “what if” pin-up of Marshall meeting LDB…at a Kepi show.

Reading Comics ‘At the Movies’: On Roger Ebert and Comics Criticism

Reading Comics ‘At the Movies’: On Roger Ebert and Comics Criticism:

It was only recently that I figured out how much film critic Roger Ebert has influenced my work as a critic and writer. It wasn’t his passing last Thursday, although it was certainly a reminder. It was several months ago when I happened to go through an old stack of papers and found notes from my graduate thesis which was partially inspire by a review Roger Ebert wrote. You see, he and I shared one thing in common: we both love the Alex Proyas film Dark City.

Read my tribute to Roger Ebert and thoughts on comics criticism today at PopMatters.

Things I Said I’d Do This Year: The Narrative Consequences of Batman, Spider-Man and Daredevil:
