Big Numbers #3, by Alan Moore and Bill Sienkiewicz (assisted, infamously, by Al Colombia). (Everyone’s posted this, but what the heck). Bits and pieces of it have been flowing around for years, but finally Pádraig Ó Méalóid has assembled the whole story and put it online. The […]

0 Comments Published by Matthias Wivel March 24th, 2009 in journal, comics and cartooning, film, tv, video Write the author.Det er med stor sorg, at Metabunkerens redaktion erfarer, at den mangeårige tegneserie- og populærkulturformidler, samt tegneserieforfatter, Kristoffer Mogensen er død. Jeg selv mødte ham desværre kun en enkelt eller to gange, men husker ham som et ualmindeligt venligt og imødekommende menneske.
Han var måske den første person jeg ikke kendte, som viste interesse for […]
Almost Colossus
2 Comments Published by Matthias Wivel March 24th, 2009 in commentary and criticism, comics and cartooning Write the author.Kramers Ergot 7 is a product of colossal ambition, it is of colossal size and it was published to colossal expectations. Is it any surprise that the result is less than colossal?
There is no doubt that this is a rare achievement in comics production, and it is certainly also a high-quality anthology containing some […]

What’s Wrong with this Picture?
3 Comments Published by Matthias Wivel March 10th, 2009 in commentary and criticism, pictorial arts, letters Write the author.It seems to be the season for the discovery of sensational portraits. A few days ago The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust announced having found an authentic, contemporary portrait of none less than Shakespeare himself. Its persuasive provenance and resemblance to a number of portraits, most presumably copied from lost pictures, that carry traditional identifications to Shakespeare, […]
Tegneserien får officielt råd
0 Comments Published by Matthias Wivel March 10th, 2009 in comics and cartooning, hype & linkage Write the author.Det er med glæde, at undertegnede nu kan bringe følgende pressemeddelelse:
Aldrig tidligere har der på verdensplan været skabt og udgivet så mange spændende, vidtfavnende, vitale og iøjnefaldende tegneserier som nu. Tegneserien oplever en veritabel guldalder. Alligevel står tegneserien svagt i Danmark blandt kritikere, boghandlere, tegneserieskabere, forlag, læsere og myndigheder, og hvad der engang var et […]
