Astro Boy review

What Did I Learn? Today’s review is on Astro Boy by Osamu Tezuka, specifically Dark Horse’s Volume 1 and 2 compilation. The original twenty years of Astro Boy comics appear to have been published between 1951 to 1981 but were only part of what Tezuka was able to publish.

What Did I Learn? Today’s review is on a comic that goes by the name of Odyssey by Dream Out Loud Comics, namely Eric Guindon and Samantha Gough.

What Did I Learn? Seeds is the autobiographical story of how the author, Ross Mackintosh, and his family were affected by his father’s cancer; beginning with his diagnosis in 2009, then taking us through the journey of his father’s decline and eventual passing.

Pokeweed review
January 27th, 2011 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? Today’s review is on Pokeweed, by Drew Pocza. It’s black and white with intresting but structurally simple lines. There isn’t a lot of texture to the backgrounds but there isn’t a lot needed, so that works for me. The artist prefers a less-is-more approach that pus the focus on the characters. [...]
Silent Interlude review
January 21st, 2011 — What-Did-I-Learn?
What Did I Learn? So I had wanted to get another look at the G.I. Joe “Silent Interlude” story where no one spoke. I wanted to see what techniques were used and what I could learn. It seems to me that if one can write comic that works without words then it will be a [...]
