Comix Recipes

"Draw us a recipe." That's the brief we sent to a slew of our favorite comic artists; each week, we're thrilled to present what they sent back. The resulting works of art are fantastic, beautiful, hilarious, thoughtful, informative, and often all of the above — and they prove that a recipe doesn't just have to be words on paper. http://www.saveur.com/comix.jsp

Paris Review - The Art of Comics No. 1, R. Crumb

In an era for publishing so utterly defined by the race toward digital, Art Spiegelman’s fixation with the book as an object has never once wavered—if anything, the years have seen his demands on publishers grow more complex, as evidenced by the 2009 release of Be a Nose , a collection of his sketchbooks published by McSweeney’s, all reproduced in their original size, and bound loosely together by a cloth band. This month Pantheon marks the release of MetaMaus , a Spiegelman-penned analysis of his Pulitzer Prize-winning, medium-defining 1992 classic, Maus , which finds the author once again reveling in the possibilities offered up by the format. This fact is immediately evident on the front cover, with a hole bore smack in the center, standing in for the eye of a drawing of Spiegelman himself as a cigarette smoking mouse.

Mini Documentary: WOMEN in COMICS -ArtSync

Debuting this week from Image Comics , " Chew " focuses on the stomach-turning adventures of Tony Chu, a federal agent who uses his powers as a Cibopath – one who gets psychic impressions from what he eats (i.e. murder victims) – to solve crimes in a possible future where massive Avian Flu deaths have made the Food and Drug Administration a more powerful government agency than the Department of Homeland Security. I knew “Chew” was going to be a different sort of book, so when I started it, I knew I wanted to do a few different things. For one, I asked Image if we could solicit showing all five covers of the first story arc.
