Comics, a dying industry?

The Walking Dead Issue #27 by Robert Kirkman, art by Charlie Adlard

So the other day I was looking around for some ‘The Walking Dead‘ and found it hard to find a consolidated place to download them. I would go buy comics, but the shops are at least 40 minutes drive both ways. Though I don’t think you should pirate things that are worth the money, but then again who am I kidding, piracy is such a common thing these days it’s hard to find someone who doesn’t do it and I could go on about that, but I’ll leave that for another time. Now I’ve only recently got into comics books, about a year ago when Watchmen released, yes I know I am late to the party, but there seems to be so many amazing comics out there to explore. I’ve grown quite fond of the medium mainly because books are way too long for me to bother with and who didn’t like picture books growing up? Read more below…

Back on track…so as I kept Googling for a place to download this comic and I thought, do people even read comics anymore? Over the last few months, I have ventured to the closest comic book shop to my house and upon arriving each time I started to notice a common trend, mostly, if not all of the customers were around my age (23) or older. Which made me think the enjoyment of going to the comic store every Wednesday isn’t really there anymore, especially among the younger generation. Sure I had never really experienced this when I was a kid, cause I’ll be honest I was too poor, but all my friends would. I remember growing up, they would eagerly await the newest issue of Spider-Man, the McFarlane edition and each Wednesday they would crowd the shops like buzzing bees.

With that in mind, I had posted this question on my forum, and one of the members replied “Where do they get the money to even start a new saga if no one bought their comics? Why is DC and Marvel still in business if no one like their stuff?”. I think the only reason comics are making a “comeback” is because of the entertainment industry. In the last few years Hollywood has taken a big leap into the comic industry to pull out new stories for the big screen, because lets be honest, they’ve run everything else dry. But because of Hollywood the comic industry doesn’t seem to be spiraling down anymore, or at least to me. Personally, I welcome the movie & TV studios to bring some of the lesser known comics to the screens. And on that note…

YAW Sisters by Kervin Brisseaux

And we have a cracker release from Depthcore. This time titled “Mythic”. Read on below:

The Depthcore Collective is proud to releases it’s 40th themed chapter exhibition, ‘MYTHIC‘.

One of our most thematic relevant Chapters ever, ‘MYTHIC’ is the result of five months of careful planning, research and stylistic experimentation from the collective. The slow creative process has resulted in a Chapter that has been meticulously crafted, workshopped from sketches through to completed pieces, thoroughly taking advantage of the collaborative collective experience. Several of the pieces presented in this collection were composed over the course of several months, taking on board feedback from our artist base at each stage of completion to try and fully realize their full potential, and ultimately create a Chapter that is carefully considered, conceptualized and executed.

This chapter features several stunning contributions from the wonderfully talented Raphael Vincenzi, earning him the Featured Artist nod for this collection; click here to peruse the traditional interview. This Chapter is also notable for the abundance of it’s collaborations, including several pairings never before seen – make sure to explore thoroughly to discover these unusual visual experiments.

Stay tuned over the next few weeks for some extra content releases from the collective, including some video interviews, live chats with various DC artists, a couple of fun community competitions as well as artist process walkthroughs! Follow us on Twitter for updates and announcements – we’re going to make the wait for the next chapter a little more fun this time!

Enjoy ‘MYTHIC‘ – we look forward to hearing your thoughts!.

Scout Crossing

Every now and again in my trollings I come across a web comic that’s of particular quality. Scout Crossing has a quirky indie feel to it that is seldom pulled off this well. For anyone looking for something to do for the afternoon, or anyone looking to buff up their RSS reader portfolio; Scout Crossing is likely to be a steady option.

I’ve never really liked the whole “web 2.0, web 3.0″ terms though >_<

Three String Improv. Kvothe Styles

rtbox — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 01:15:53 +0000

As posted on the blog of Patrick Rothfuss:

I was at my parents’ place in Guadalajara and I found an old guitar with only three strings left. I think I tuned it to Open G (or Open C, can’t really remember) and started jamming. After I came up with a little melodic sequence I enjoyed, I decided to start an improvisation based on that sequence and recorded a video.
It’s not quite what a certain Kvothe would conjure up but I’ve always had a certain irrepressible urge to pick up battered, age worn guitars lying in dusty corners and pluck away at whatever strings they have left.

Kinda reminds me of Terry Prachet’s ‘Death’
