ALL STAR RECOMMENDS




COMIC OF THE WEEK: MESMO DELIVERY BY RAFAEL GRAMPA

Published Dark Horse Books

Sangrecco is an ageing Elvis impersonator working for transport company Mesmo Delivery. Unfortunately, he can't drive. Rufo is a washed-up boxer who can. Together they haul a mysterious semi-load across country. Stopping off in a seedy little town full of street fighters and whores, Rufo runs afoul of the locals and it’s here that some truly outrageous, surprising and gorgeously illustrated sequences follow as a sinister plot unfolds.

Mesmo Delivery was first unleashed upon the world by AdHouse books in 2008. Its Brazilian creator,Raphael Grampa, has a back ground in design and animation and unsurprisingly the world of Mesmo, from its beer bottle labels to its petrol pumps,is crafted with a designer's diligence and an animator's affection. Each character, with a cartoonish smoothness, lives and breathes on these pages,drawn in an eye-popping style that contains flourishes of Frank Quitely, Paul Pope, Atsushi Kaneko, Dave Cooper and Geoff Darrow and yet, somehow, it's all quite distinctly Grampa.

Also quite the study in motion on the page,Mesmo Delivery features several hyper-violent scenes that defy both expectation and convention. A sequence where Sangrecco literally cuts loose with twin swords over the course of four pages should make any aspiring creator stop and rethink the possibilities of his or her own action sequences from shot choice to the limitations (or lack thereof) of the page space itself.

Mesmo Delivery is all at once grotesque, elegant, surreal, cinematic and yet quite distinctly comic book. My only complaint is that Dark Horse didn't print it up in the hugely oversized hardcover edition it so rightly deserves.




WEBCOMIC OF THE WEEK: BUG BY SCARLETTE BACCINI

Well, this is a surprise.

Melbourne creator Scarlette Baccini’s Bug is close to being possibly the perfect little webcomic. Clocking in at only eight pages in length, it’s a lushly illustrated piece about a little girl and her relationship with a caterpillar. Beautifully expressive faces and a rich autumnal palate give Bug a rare warmth. Go read.





COMICS VIDEO OF THE WEEK: 3 SECONDS BY MARC-ANTOINE MATHIEU

“This book follows the trajectory of light through a tiny fragment of space-time. It lasts only three seconds, producing a very short but very dense story – a mystery.”So begins Marc-Antoine Mathieu’s 3”, a mind-meltingly hypnotic, wordless work that perfectly displays the limitless possibilities and elasticity of comics space-time. The story spans a mere three seconds of “real time” but takes exactly as long as each individual reader wants it to (not unlike any comic, sure, but stay with me). In his must read book, Comics Art, Paul Gravett perfectly describes the construction of 3” as “fiendish.”I personally can attest to this, having spent hours attempting to unpack a thing that turns three seconds into how long is a piece of string?

Anyway, for all its experimentation, 3” is also a work of pretty rigid comics formalism with each page consistently zooming in over the course of nine panels. I recommend picking up the handsome seventy-page hardcover, published in 2013 by Jonathan Cape, so you can linger over it and feel your sanity fray at the edges. However, if you only have five minutes and twenty-two seconds to spare, some glorious bande dessinee nerd of the highest order has packed the story, panel by panel, into exactly that length with a catchy little tune called ‘Hail Bop’ by Django Django layered over the top.

Embiggen as much as possible, watch and try to not let your mind rip open like old jeans worn thin at the knee.

New Comics For Wednesday 1st of April


It may be new comics shipping on April Fool's but this week's list is no joke! Just more awesome reads!

The increasing popular new Star Wars line of books continues to expand with their third title, KANAN LAST PADAWAN #1. It's always a good thing seeing more McNiven artwork, so UNCANNY INHUMANS #0 will definitely be worth a look through. CONVERGENCE #0 starts the the comic event season off and gives us a glimpse into what the DCU will look like for the next two months. Alex De Campi's new series NO MERCY #1 about a Goodwill group getting stuck in the dangers of middle Central America is sounding pretty thrilling. Just in time to tie us over until the next big Marvel movie release, AVENGERS RAGE OF ULTRON OGN HC from Rememder and Opena doing it's best to give us our Ultron fill. The huge runaway success of last year is finally getting it's first trade collection in LUMBERJANES TP VOL 01! Around the time of us opening 4 years ago a new title came out for Image that become the next hottest thing. NONPLAYER #1 is being re-printed again for those who missed first time around in time for the release of the hugely long awaited #2. And the final chapter of Azzerallo's run on his modern take on a Greek tragedy come out with WONDER WOMAN HC VOL 06 BONES (N52), along with WONDER WOMAN TP VOL 05 FLESH (N52).

Great group of books. What's got you pumped? Anything else we need to stash for you? Just let us know! And if this isn't enough to keep you busy over the Easter break you could always head along to the Melbourne Comics Quarterly #2 LaunchHappening at Bartronica, not 300 metres down the road from us on Saturday, you'd be mad to not drop in and check it out when you are in for your holiday pick up!

New Comics For Wednesday 18th of March




So what's on the menu for this week? Some great reads of course and here is just a few!

Vertigo gives us another anthology series, this time with a sports theme in STRANGE SPORTS STORIES #1. The Mignola-verse grows again with another release to bolster its ranks of already fantastic books with a classic re-envisioning in FRANKENSTEIN UNDERGROUND #1. Mark Millar and Sean Murphy team up to bring us a time traveling, reality tv adventures of CHRONONAUTS #1. INVISIBLE REPUBLIC #1 described as Breaking Bad meets Blade Runner from awesome talent Gabriel Hardman will no doubt be the next Image #1 sell out. 1970's spy fun with stunning Terry and Rachel Dodson art in RED ONE #1. 70's not doing it for you? How about the next chapter in Rick Remender's school for assassin saga in the 80's with DEADLY CLASS TP VOL 02 KIDS OF THE BLACK HOLE? More 80's inspired awesome with the action flick adventure flair of the SEXCASTLE GN. Rucka and Lark's LAZARUS TP VOL 03 CONCLAVE hits a boiling point as friends take up arms against friends. The MS MARVEL TP VOL 02 GENERATION WHY collection continuing the mega hit series of Marvel's most easily accessible new character in years. BOBS BURGERS TP VOL 01 gives you a chance to catch up with your favourite Burger place while you wait for new episodes on TV. More wonder and confusion in the epic "space Conan" series, PROPHET TP VOL 04 JOINING. BPRD HELL ON EARTH TP VOL 10 DEVILS WINGS continues to give us a glimpse at the end of the world from one of the finest ongoing titles around. And our high hopes pick of the week is  GIANT DAYS #1 from BOOM, which sounds like it will take us back to those Uni days of dealing with dead end relationships and that need to re-invent yourself every five minutes!

See anything else you like and would like us to stash, let us know! :D

New Comics For Wednesday 4th of March


Hang on...It's March already?! When did that happen? Anyway let'snot get caught up on the passage of time but rather focus on the great line up of books getting released this week!

ALL NEW HAWKEYE #1 sees Lemire and Ramon Perez following up on Fraction and Aja's acclaimed run, no pressure at all guys. GUARDIANS TEAM-UP #1 starts with a Bendis written story but even more exciting in the fact it's it stars all new Art Adams artwork! The third new Marvel Star Wars title hits and it's bound to be a winner with Waid and Dobson behind PRINCESS LEIA #1. DC starts it's Movie Poster Cover month, recreating some of your favourite films posters featuring your fave DC cast. BLACKCROSS #1 has Warren Ellis cutting loose in the Dynamite's Golden Age Project Superpowers Universe. BIG MAN PLANS #1 gives us more madness from creator of the Goon, Eric Powell. DESCENDER #1 sees the pairing of Dustin Nguyen and Jeff Lemire taking us down the heartbreaking road of an child AI robot being hunted down by mercenaries. What happens to a small child is transported to a D&D realm, only to return a year later us a fully grown Conan type with a deadly secret? Find out in the awesome BIRTHRIGHT TP VOL 01 HOMECOMING. Local gents Dean Rankine and Tristan Jones both have major trade releases this week with ITTY BITTY BUNNIES CAVALCADE CONTRABAND TP and SILENT HILL DOWNPOUR ANNES STORY TP. More wonderfully drawn carnage and madness in Darrow's SHAOLIN COWBOY HC THE SHEMP BUFFET .

All this and no doubt a bunch of other stuff you are keen for too. Anything you need just mention it before Wednesday! :D
