Pretty in Ink (5)

  For this week’s assignment I decided to read Pretty in Ink. After reading this book, I came to the conclusion that this book is a masterpiece! This book really snaps everything into perspective, and it also covers things that weren’t really discussed in other classes! Even though this is just an overview, I felt like this was both educational and inspiring on so many levels! While reading this, I found myself writing things I wanted to research and reference! Throughout this book we see women rising and become a powerhouse for the future and comics. We also see women in comics break away from the typical “damsel in distress” stereotype. One thing that really stood out to me was the unique illustrations. To be honest, I absolutely loved them! With some of the comics we’ve read throughout the semester, some of the women don't really look like women. They don't have any character when it comes to design. They all look like they came out of a cookie cutter. I also think most of t...

The Perry Bible Fellowship Almanack (5)

  For this week’s assignment I read The Perry Bible Fellowship Almanack, by Nicholas Gurewitch. I really enjoyed this comic almanack! To be honest, I had low expectations starting this. To summarize this, these comics cover everything from A to Z. One thing I really like about this was the dark humor. I felt like this book is quite relatable when it came to humor. I wish some of these comic strips were expanded upon! There is so much potential with these characters. Even though some characters were reused, I felt cheated. Overall I really like the layout and type of the book. I also like  the front and back cover design! I feel like this was completely different from the art in the comic strips. I really like the unique art styles used in each comic strip. There’s just something about the simplistic “Keith haring style” used. The only thing I was questioning was the color palettes used in each strip. Some were good and others just didn’t really make any sense. While reading th...

Ghost In the Shell (6)

  For this week’s assignment I decided to read Ghost In the Shell, by Shirow Masamune. This Manga primary focuses on the character Motoko Kusanagi, who is a cyborg with a human brain. It also consists of the cyberpunk world, advanced  technology, and futuristic politics. When I began reading this, I knew that this story took a lot of time to create. The world itself is so complex and detailed. You really have to pay attention to understand what’s really going on in the story. To be honest, I found some parts confusing. I didn’t really mind it though. Overall my experience throughout this comic was pretty positive! Except for that one graphic part. But then again, it wasn’t intended for children. I found it really refreshing to read something this detailed. I thought the detailed characters, environments, and technology designs were remarkable! This was my first time reading a futuristic/cyberpunk graphic novel. Even though I did read the Black Incal , I feel like this one is m...
