X-9, again on Al Williamson
time ago remembered Al Williamson, at the his death, speaking of his work because the ink on pencils of John Romita JR in Daredevil stories written by Ann Nocenti (s Frank Miller). It has been decades long. But even before the ink to specialize, also due to its slowness in the realization of complete tables for many years worked with Archie Goodwin (another author and editor of the indispensable history of American popular comic strip) to a daily strip, X -9 , a secret agent-style invented by classic odd couple Dashiell Hammett and Alex Raymond in the '30s. In the second half 60s was asked Goodwin and Williamson groped for a revival of the character, a raise that was very successful and continued with the authors until 1980.
tables of Williamson are still full of intelligence, taste and sense of rhythm of the narrative. are a school, as far as I'm concerned, the non-superhero comic book adventure . A solid system for a character is simple and well characterized through the wild on every possible variation on the theme of espionage and yellow. The boards are reporting that in 1966, Goodwin was experiencing the tradition, moving from one strip to the other scripts in a fluid and natural. But is that Williamson is just perfect. In these examples has not yet reached his full artistic synthesis, which will mature with experience and production needs, and are still evident all the great masters realistic referenced. Yet states have a clarity of purpose and visual expression that is pure talent. Nothing over the top, nothing pulled away, leaving nothing to chance. Care and intelligence, in short, for a product that can not be serial. As demonstrated by this classic car chase.

Maakies and the pace
When I think of comic books, the first thing I ask is because ... there are people who choose this form of communication and expression? Why this and not others? This question is still
first reflections on the quality of what we are told, the narrative content, technology, ... When I read
Tony Millionaire the question becomes redundant. Tony and comics. His thinking is developed in that form. And his plates, whatever the topic, whatever the words are the quintessence of the narrative in comics. Also in Maakeis , where Millionaire seems simply to have fun with vaudeville tricks, he shows us the infinite possibilities of the narrative in comics, and a reflection on the essential rhythm, fishing with both hands in the tradition of old strips, Krazy Kat first .
Look at this.
The strips are developed in two parallel parts. The main, large format, and a secondary, small, below.
The former is a more free form, which changes from strip to strip, but in which you can still observe a definite rhythm narrative that leads to the final resolution of the gag. What happens below in the secondary strip, is even more interesting in terms of rhythm. There is a continuous alternation, in a time syncopated track, where the characters take turns to an alien landscape (alien?! Or contestualizzante?) In many ways reminiscent of the metaphysical territories Krazy Kat. The gags are mostly idiotic, but it is the essence of the comic, its narrative devices to make Maakies missed.
is a small selection of strips complete.
