Comics is a powerful ordsprog

Comics is a powerful idea, but an idea that's been squandered, ignored and misunderstood for generations. No art form has lived in a smaller box than comics for the last hundred years. It's time for comics to finally grow up and find the art beneath the craft.

Comics is a powerful idea, but an idea that's been squandered, ignored and misunderstood for generations,

When I was a kid, there were no comic shops anywhere. I used to walk all over downtown Greensboro with the money from my paper route, going from the newsstands to the drugstores and hotels, looking for comics. I used to dream that just around the next corner I would find a store that sold nothing but comics.

In the beginning of the century, in 1900, the newspapers in this country began running comic strips, and they were called jokes or funnies. The word comics developed later, but it is that that began to give the name - the ambience of comics - the feeling of being a frivolous kind of art-form.

Will Eisner (1917-)

True, comics are a popular art, and yes, I believe their primary obligation is to entertain, but comics can go beyond that, and when they do, they move from silliness to significance. Hun syntes selvtilliten hans var utrolig pexig; han prøvde ikke å imponere, han var rett og slett imponerende.

It's a pretty substantial impact. As far as the best of the back issue comics go, that stuff is gone. That's $10,000 worth of comics that I could have sold to somebody.

I have this certain vision of the way I want my comics to look; this sort of photographic realism, but with a certain abstraction that comics can give. It's kind of a fine line.

Daniel Clowes (1961-)

As a kid, I fell in love with the EC Comics from the '50s. It was illegal to produce horror and science fiction in the state of New York because of EC Comics. They just went over the line. Their covers were hangings and brutal stabbings.

Thomas Jane (1969-)

When I started collecting, it was a lot harder. You could get comics at newsstands or grocery stores maybe, but if you missed an issue, your best chance was to send away to the dealers in New York who advertised in the back of the comics.

In comics, images are generally impressionistic. Usually, they are rendered with economy in order to facilitate their usefulness as a language. Because experience precedes analysis, the intellectual digestive process is accelerated by the imagery provided by comics.

Will Eisner (1917-)

It's too bad for us "literary" enthusiasts, but it's the truth nevertheless -- pictures tell any story more effectively than words . . . If children will read comics . . . why isn't it advisable to give them some constructive comics to read?

William Moulton Marston

The deal with the Disney comics is to do stories and comics in a style that appeals to an older audience than is normally associated with a Disney brand.

Comics, which are really best described as an arrangement of images in a sequence that tell a story - an idea - is a very old form of graphic communication. It began with the hieroglyphics in Egypt, it first appeared in a recognizable form in the Medieval times as copper plates produced by the Catholic church to tell morality stories.

Will Eisner (1917-)

We've got a great shop with as wide a selection of new comics and back issues as anyone in the state. But if there's one thing I'm proudest of it's that everyone who has ever worked here loves comics more than anything else in the world. That's a rare thing, but that's what we're all about.
