I'm far from proud about this drawing (it was the first one I made for the Amazing Comics blogposts, namely in November of last year), so I've been hesitating to publish it. On the other hand, after all these months it turns out to be difficult for me to post on a regular bases, so I think it's better that I get out what I have prepared for you and that I keep my hesitations to myself. Anyhow, I wanted to talk to you about this comic by Paul Pope. At first sight, Pope's work is hard to dig in - especially when it is in black and white. But then, after a few pages, you know that what you are reading is a much richer experience then what you often read, and you thank him for offering you that kind of stuff for more than an hour of lecture. He captures the NY artscene as only he can portray it. I could have referred to his comic Heavy Liquid as well, since it is as excellent as 100%. Dargaud published a french version of both books for those who prefer their literature in french.
