Hey Artistic Types!

[wednes]

I need to find a few good books on Color and Composition theory. I know very little about the comic makers art, although I think it is a good format (genre, if you will) for my wonderful zombie story. Ooooh scary!

Any book/sources you know of would be very helpful to me.

Gracias.

Talk to lickingtoad. I think he's got a Sandman comic that also has several storyboards and the format Neil Gaiman uses when writing comics.

I'll bet that would help.

Probably.

Except, I already talked to Schwab and he said he had nothing.

I beter make him an offer he can't refuse.

Wanna come over when I get off work?
You can if you want.

You see my man more than I, me thinks. Luring him in with foods, plant, and infallible humor.

I can't compete my dear.

And Large Breasts...

Lets not forget my voluptous bosom as a means to lure men to me...I've had good luck so far.

Besides, who says you can't be here as well?

70 miles plus a promise to my best of girlfriends to accompany her to a viewing of Two Towers.

But tomorrow. Cook up some spinache.

How many freaking times are you gonna see that movie?

I thought you didn't like it. I'm out of Spinache. Perhaps there will be delivery.

Try these:

Understanding Comics - Scott McCleod
Comics & Sequential Art - Will Eisner

I just spoke to a friend of mine and he has :
THE DC GUIDE TO DRAWING COMICS
DRAWING COMICS THE MARVEL WAY

He also says there is THE DC GUIDE TO WRITING COMICS, THE DC GUIDE TO PENCILLING COMICS and DRAWING CUTTING EDGE COMICS which he covets but does not as yet possess.
