Pues aquí está ya nuestro Moore de la temporada en este monográfico que va a tratar de abarcar una obra que desgraciadamente tal vez es más conocida por su accidentadísima andadura editorial y legal, que por su contenido. En 1982 y rescatando al viejo Marvelman británico, aparecía en las páginas de la revista Warrior, de la mano de un joven Alan Moore y Garry Leach el primer capítulo de esta historia que, tal vez por su errática publicación es menos conocida que otras obras como Watchmen o V de Vendetta, pero que para nada les va a la zaga y con las que tiene muchas cosas en común. Llegarían después otros dibujantes como Alan Davis, John Ridgway, Chuck Austen, Rick Veitch o John Totleben y la serie pasaría del Reino Unido a los USA en un caótico maremagnum de derechos que ha tardado décadas en solucionarse. Repasaremos punto por punto todo este asunto, pero tan solo como preliminar de contexto para una obra que por sí sola tiene muchísimo más que contar y de la que tal vez se ha hablado menos de lo que merece. La noche es caliente como el infierno. Todo se te pega. Una asquerosa habitación de un asqueroso barrio de una asquerosa ciudad. El aparato de aire acondicionado es un pedazo de chatarra que no podría enfriar ni una bebida aunque la metieras dentro.

Show notes provided by Joe Peluso Horror, mysticism, spiritualism, psychology, philosophy, and a touch of quantum physics, put them all together, stir passionately until a murky broth is formed, and you will have concocted a classic comic entitled "The Saga of the Swamp Thing". Join your hosts James, Chris, Joe, and returning guest, Josh Murray for a deep dive into a marshland of mayhem that could only come from the mind of Alan Moore. "Anatomy Lesson"-- comprising issues 21-27--of Saga of the Swamp Thing, redefines the titular character, and more importantly, elevates mainstream comics to a new level of enlightened storytelling. Aided and abetted by draftsmen Stephen Bissette and John Totleben, Moore crafts a monumental tale of horror told on an intimate scale that begs the question of what it means to be human. The boys bring their A-Game as they critique this highly praised seminal story. Questions are raised, theories are discussed, and allusions abound as the insightful analysis branches off into as many bulrushes as one could encounter in the swamp. A word to the wise: Stay on the shore. Don't delve into the cloudy and cloying confines of the swamp. Alan Moore and his Swamp Thing could be lurking.

John Connor is a fictional character and the male protagonist of the Terminator franchise. Created by writer/director James Cameron, the character is first referred to in the 1984 film The Terminator and first appears in its 1991 sequel Terminator 2: Judgment Day (T2). In the character's first appearance, John is portrayed by Edward Furlong as a child, and briefly by Michael Edwards as an adult in a small role. Other actors have portrayed the character in subsequent films, including Nick Stahl, Christian Bale, and Jason Clarke. In addition, Thomas Dekker portrayed John Connor in the two-season television series Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. The character serves as a protagonist in Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003), and Terminator Salvation (2009), the antagonist of the film Terminator Genisys (2015), and has a brief cameo in Terminator: Dark Fate (2019) John Constantine (/ˈkɒnstənˌtaɪn/)[1] is a fictional antihero who appears in American comic books published by DC Comics. Constantine first appeared in Swamp Thing #37 (June 1985), and was created by Alan Moore, Steve Bissette, and John Totleben. The titular Hellblazer,[2][3] Constantine is a working-class warlock, occult detective, and con man from Liverpool who is stationed in London. He is known for his endless cynicism, deadpan wit, ruthless cunning, and constant chain smoking, but he is also a passionate humanitarian driven by a heartfelt desire to do some good in his life. Originally a supporting character who played a pivotal role in the "American Gothic" Swamp Thing storyline, Constantine received his own comic in 1988. The musician Sting was a visual inspiration for the character.[4] The Hellblazer series was the longest-running and most successful title of DC's Vertigo imprint.[5] Empire ranked Constantine third in their 50 Greatest Comic Characters of All Time,[6] while IGN ranked him number 29 in its Top 100 Comic Book Heroes, and the character ranked number 10 in Wizard's Top 200 Comic Book Characters of All Time. The character made his live-action debut in the film Constantine (2005), played by Keanu Reeves. On television, Constantine was played in the television series Constantine by Matt Ryan, who later reprised the character in the Arrowverse series Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow, and The Flash, and several animated productions. Jenna Coleman later portrayed a female version of the character (and her ancestor) in the television series The Sandman, adapting both Constantines' roles from the comic series. Some writers who have written his stories have claimed to "see" him.[4][7][8]

Your heroes return for another installment of Miracleman Summer with Miracleman: Olympus! This spoiler-filled convo dives deep into the conclusion of Alan Moore's time on Miracleman. "Gods and monsters walk the earth, as the aliens whose technology created Miracleman seek to exterminate Project Zarathustra's survivors. And even as the future of humankind hangs in the balance on the far side of the galaxy, and the month-old baby Winter begins to speak, the price of godhood takes its toll on Johnny Bates. A single word is uttered, and hell on Earth is unleashed. Kid Miracleman is loose! As smoke rises over London, Miracleman must face Kid Miracleman - and realize his destiny. The sick will be healed, military powers will be disarmed, poverty will be abolished. Every day shall be a day of miracles, a new dawn for humankind. The original Miracleman opus comes to its majestic close!"Miracleman: Olympus is written by Alan Moore and drawn by John Totleben.Follow ComiClub on Instagram @ComiClubPodcastComiClub is hosted by Blaine McGaffigan and Adam Cook.

Miracleman by Alan Moore and his artistic collaborators (Garry Leach, Alan Davis, Chuck Austen, John Ridgway, Rick Veitch, and John Totleben) is one of the all-time greatest superhero comics ever. For a long time, it wasn't an easy book to find at reasonable prices, but now that it's widely available again, we are truly living in a blessed age. It's another extremely influential classic by one of the absolute greatest writers of our medium, so we had to discuss it. Thanks again to Corey J. Beats for producing our theme music.

Welcome to the Season Finale of Jav & Charles Talk Comics. In this the final episode (of season 2) our heroes discuss two amazing comics from two titans of the industry (that's right Jav there are other words to describe writers and artists other than great). First up your heroes talk about Grant Morrison's initial entry into American Comics with his first arc on Swamp Thing and it is great (listen to find out why). Then the boys talk about All Star Superman written by Grant Morrison, their love song to Superman is beautiful, poignant, and funny, how's that for a trifecta. Don't forget to tune in next season when Jav & Charles promise to do a Superman arc where Superman doesn't die.All Star Superman Written by Gran Morrison Art by Frank QuitelySwamp Thing Written by Alan Moore Art by Stephen Bissette and John Totleben
Het idee dat er wijsheid schuilt in de natuur is eeuwenoud en heeft al vele vormen gekend, van natuurgeesten en goden tot taoïsme en hekserij. In de afgelopen eeuw is er ook steeds meer wetenschappelijk onderzoek gekomen naar bewustzijn en intelligentie van planten, dieren en de ecosystemen waar ze in leven. De nog steeds omstreden Gaia-hypothese van James Lovelock en Lynn Margulis stelt dat de Aarde één groot netwerk van organische en non-organische systemen is dat elkaar beïnvloed om een leefbare balans te behouden. Het concept van ecosystemen die een balans vinden is inmiddels een beproefd en essentieel onderdeel van natuurbehoud en het tegengaan van klimaatverandering en effecten daarvan, uiteenlopend van het verwilderen van natuurgebieden, het herintroduceren van apex predatoren en het ruimte maken voor het buiten de oevers treden van rivieren. Er is zelfs onderzoek, onder andere door Suzanne Simard, dat laat zien dat bomen en fungi door middel van chemische verbindingen voedingstoffen uitwisselen en zo een sterker gedeeld leefsysteem creëren. Wat kunnen mensen leren van deze natuurlijke balans? Hoe verhoudt menselijke wijsheid zich tot die van overig leven? Kunnen we de inzichten van de natuur gebruiken of is dat een te menselijke gedachte? Te gast is Annika, historica en wijsgerige, net als in aflevering 1 over burgerschap. We bouwen voort op aflevering 15, over antropocentrisme.

Stephen Bissette is a legend of comics and horror and horror comics. In 1984, he penciled a little story in Saga of the Swamp Thing #21 called “The Anatomy Lesson” and, with Alan Moore, Rick Veitch, and John Totleben, proceeded to turn the comics world on its ear. His Eisner Award-winning horror anthology Taboo featured a who's who of ‘80s and ‘90s independent creators, including Moebius, Neil Gaiman, Chester Brown, and Charles Vess and was the original home of Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell's From Hell.Check out his latest creaturiffic artbooks from Amazon's print-on-demand service, as well as his 700-page The Brood, the definitive book on David Cronenberg's film of the same name.For an additional 55 minutes of this episode — including our deep dive into the second Werewolf by Night story in Marvel Spotlight #3, as well as our conversations about Swamp Thing, the limitations of Marvel-style storytelling, where to find underground comics in Vermont in the 1970s, and two Gene Colan stories — support us on Patreon at the $4/month level to unlock our super-secret bonus feed of content, with nearly 60 extended and exclusive episodes!

Case Aiken makes his return to the show, and we're talking more Grant Morrison, along with a dose of Dan Mora; that's right, we're talking KLAUS: HOW SANTA CLAUS BEGAN!

Como viene siendo costumbre, en cada temporada le dedicamos como mínimo un monográfico a una obra de nuestro barbudo de Northampton favorito y ya iba siendo hora de ponernos con La Cosa del Pantano de Alan Moore, Steve Bissette, John Totleben, Rick Veitch y otros. La Cosa del Pantano fue la primera obra de Moore para el mercado americano y el principio de tantísimas cosas... Sin La Cosa del Pantano no existiría Watchmen, no existiría Vertigo y probablemnete el devenir de los cómics americanos hubiese discurrido por derroteros muy distintos de los que conocemos. Acompañadnos para repasar esa obra fundacional de prácticamente toda la obra posterior de Alan Moore y de otros tantos autores. Está entrando en otra dimensión, un lugar asombroso solo limitado por la imaginación. Su próxima parada, el programa 184 del podcast de ELHDLT. Selección musical 🎶 Stop!

In this episode, Chris welcomes Adam who is the showrunner for the YouTube Original show,“Escape the Night” (in its 4 th Season) and creator of the comic book “The Eighth” to look at thefirst volume of one of his favorite comic book arcs, “Saga of the Swamp Thing”. Writer AlanMoore with pencilers Stephen Bissette and John Totleben begin their storied run on thetitle where in just 7 issues they would forever re-define the character of Swamp Thing.Before Watchmen, Alan Moore made his debut in the U.S. comic book industry with therevitalization of the horror comic book The Swamp Thing. His deconstruction of theclassic monster stretched the creative boundaries of the medium and became one ofthe most spectacular series in comic book history. With modern-day issues exploredagainst a backdrop of horror, The Swamp Thing stories became commentaries onenvironmental, political and social issues, unflinching in their relevance. Book one(Issues #20-27) begins with the story "The Anatomy Lesson," a haunting origin storythat reshapes Swamp Thing mythology with terrifying revelations that begin a journey ofdiscovery and adventure that will take him across the stars and beyond.Geek Ultimate Alliance on Twitter: @GUAPodNetworkWFTB on Twitter: @FinestBelieversWFTB Email: worldsfinesttruebelievers@gmail.comChris on Twitter: @ChrisBalgaAdam on Twitter: @failedsuperhero“Escape the Night” on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRfpyIF9ZtKKInt1xZ_Ns5Btar4OZzIEP“The Eighth” on Indigogo: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-eighth-comics/x/9409350#/

Stephen Bissette joins us to discuss the romantic plights of Swampy & Abby, as seen in the groundbreaking series "Saga of the Swamp Thing." The artist describes the magical alchemy that occurred between him, John Totleben, and Alan Moore in 1983, and how their desire to make monster comics radically altered the landscape of the art form. More importantly, we converse on the re-creation of Abigail Arcane and her sensuous union with the plant who dreamed he was a man - "The Rites of Spring," which may just be the most erotic and romantic comic book ever produced. For those wanting a little more context to this conversation, be sure to listen to the 34th episode of CBCC, where Brad & Lisa breakdown "The Rites of Spring" as well as Swampy & Abby's relationship in detail. Also, you can hear Brad & Steve talk about David Cronenberg's "The Brood" and the 660-page book Stephen wrote on the film over at the In the Mouth of Dorkness podcast. You should also watch the career-spanning conversation Steve had with the boys of Cartoonist Kayfabe.

We start off with a videogame! We both logged a lot of hours in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Lots of videogame food was made. The main course is the LJN Dungeons & Dragons toy line. We run through an overview of the entire line, talk about some of the toys that were never produced and even discuss the amazing concept art by comic artists Timothy Truman, Steve Bisette and John Totleben. And more. We go deep on this one, folks. [Hambone is a wrestling fan of the sort who uses wrestling lingo in real life. When he says "job" as a verb, as in "jobbed out by a unicorn," he means losing, usually in a fashion that puts the winner in an unusually favorable light] Finally, we chat about the new Young Adventurer's Guides: Monsters & Creatures and Warriors & Weapons. They're geared towards kids, entirely lack rules and focus on how the world works and teaching players how to roleplaying. They're pretty great.

It's the magical conman from Liverpool, John Constantine! Anthony & Doc discuss this Sting lookalike and why he has so few friends. Plus hear the worst attempt at a Scouse accent you've ever heard! SHOW NOTES: Intro Shoutout to Freudian Sips – mother-daughter duo have drinks and talk about brains, psychology, and all manner of interesting topics (NSFW) (2:32) Background (5:37) John Constantine created by Alan Moore, Steve Bissette, and John Totleben in The Saga of Swamp Thing #37 (June 1985) Originally designed by the artists to look like Sting, since they were fans of the Police Started off as a DC character, but shifted to Vertigo in 1993, where he essentially stayed for over 20 years until the New 52 combined the DC and Vertigo universes In the Vertigo universe, he ages in real time, unlike most comic book characters Born as a sole surviving twin – he inadvertently strangled his twin in the womb with his own umbilical cord – the birth also killed his mother, and his father resented him for her death Discovered he is the latest in a long family line of mages known as Laughing Magicians Ran away from home after messing up a curse on his father that left him frail Moved to London in 1969, got involved with the occult, and started a punk rock band called Mucous Membrane Also in a relationship with Zatanna Zatara, although it was revealed that he was bisexual His first act of heroism - in an attempt to save a young girl, he summoned a demon, but did so incorrectly, and it took the girl to hell – the demon, Negral, became one of his recurring antagonists Later met Swamp Thing, and helped teach him to become more powerful – one of John’s longest friends A chain smoker, he contracted lung cancer – tricked one demon into drinking holy water, then sold his soul to another demon – rather than fight over it, the demons agree to cure him of his cancer Later blackmails God to keep his soul out of Hell, because if he goes to Hell he will take over, release the demons and not care about what happens Tries and fails to save his sister’s soul from Hell – demons get one over on him New 52 – some small changes to backstory, but personality remains essentially the same Gets transported to Earth-2, where he cooperates with that world’s version of himself until it’s revealed that one of them has to die in order to save Earth-2 – he kills the native Earth-2 version, but tricks Darkseid and manages to save a large number of survivors Issues (20:44) Difficulty keeping close relationships of any kind with people – most people are kept at a distance Adrenaline addiction to dangerous and mysterious situations – also a nicotine addict (29:33) Has magic ability, but often chooses not to use it unless he has to (36:29) Treatment (44:53) In universe Out of universe Skit (54:50) Ending (61:12) References: "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" by They Might Be Giants - Anthony - 0:43 Tiny Toons music video for "Particle Man" by They Might Be Giants - Anthony - 0:57 Constantine film - Anthony - 3:47 Mighty Peking Man - Anthony - 5:20 Matt Ryan (actor) - Anthony - 5:48 Matt Ryan (quarterback) - Anthony - 5:50 "Don't Stand So Close to Me" by the Police - Anthony - 6:44 Synchronicity by the Police - Anthony - 6:51 "Venus of the Hardsell" by Mucous Membrance - Anthony - 10:15 Best Friends Forever - South Park - Anthony - 15:06 J.

Not long ago on this podcast (on the episode titled ‘Let Your Freak Flag Fly') I mentioned several DC Comics cancellations that I found unfortunate. The axing of upcoming Vertigo series Second Coming was perhaps the most understandable, however unfortunate. Completely perplexing was the cancellation of the Absolute Swamp Thing Volume 1 trade hardcover, which would have collected some of the most-loved modern comics by titans like Alan Moore, Stephen Bissette, John Totleben, and Rick Veitch. I'm happy to report that Second Coming is getting a - well, a second coming, as it's been picked up by Ahoy Comics, and DC came to their senses and re-scheduled Absolute Swamp Thing, which you can pre-order from Amazon (affiliate link): https://amzn.to/2TxoGok Meanwhile, truth continues to be stranger than fiction, as the FBI has arrested actress Felicity Huffman and has a warrant out for Lori Loughlin. The actresses are just 2 of the dozens nabbed by the FBI in a massive operation uncovering a ring of criminals using money and bribery to get their children admitted into Ivy League colleges. This looks like a huge deal, one that will cast a pall over academia at a time when the country really needs to embrace and trust its institutions like the press, and educational system. However, it is also a nice reminder that, while we may not hear about their daily activities, the feds are working behind the scenes to flesh out massive criminal conspiracies and shut them down, no matter how wealthy or famous. I think we all needed to be reminded of that.

Acesse nosso SITE: goo.gl/hDQkSw e FACEBOOK: goo.gl/3mGhfd Em junho de 1985, um carismático coadjuvante debutou nas páginas de O Monstro do Pântano (Swamp Thing), na fase capitaneada por Alan Moore. O misterioso e cínico britânico já chegou chamando atenção por sua semelhança com Sting, inspiração que Moore e os desenhistas Stephen Bissette e John Totleben admitiram. Versado nas artes do ocultismo, John Constantine surgiu para impedir que um grupo chamado Brujeria destruísse toda Criação, precisando da ajuda do Monstro do Pântano para o objetivo. Terminado esse arco, os fãs já haviam sido fisgados pela malandragem de Constantine. Algum tempo depois, o personagem ganharia seu próprio título, com o pomposo nome de John Constantine: Hellblazer, deixando claro que o loirinho não tinha pudores em desafiar o inferno. Foi o começo de uma longeva série, que acumulou 300 números e trouxe vários roteiristas de renome, antes de dar lugar para a intragável fase Novos 52, onde o mago pilantra foi estupidamente incorporado ao universo de super-heróis da DC. Como aqui só nos interessa a fase Hellblazer, falamos brevemente sobre a essência do personagem nessas HQ's, onde Jamie Delano, Grant Morrison, Warren Ellis, Garth Ennis, Peter Milligan, Mike Carey e muitos outros contribuíram para sedimentar a imagem de John Constantine no imaginário dos leitores. Comentamos muito de passagem o filme com Keanu Reeves, mas pretendemos desdobrar o assunto em um vídeo dedicado somente a essa versão cinematográfica. Bem, são muitos anos e muitas páginas de John Constantine: Hellblazer, então a gente sempre acaba deixando algo de fora. Se você acha que deixamos de lado algo fundamental, conte para nós aí nos comentários ou mande um email para podcast@formigaeletrica.com.br. Voltamos com mais uma conversa legal em quinze dias. Não perca e até lá!

A saga do monstro do pântano - Livro-1 De 1983 a 1987, um jovem escritor britânico chamado Alan Moore revolucionou os quadrinhos dos Estados Unidos. Sua abordagem revolucionária na série do Monstro do Pântano, da DC Comics, definiu novos padrões para a narrativa gráfica e desencadeou uma revolução na nona arte que se reflete até os dias de hoje. Partindo das premissas de horror gótico do título e construindo um marcante e intuitivo estilo narrativo e uma profundidade de caracterização sem precedentes, a visão de Moore foi traduzida em assombrosamente belos desenhos de colaboradores como Stephen Bissette, John Totleben, Dan Day e Rick Veitch. O resultado é uma das mais duradouras obras-primas dos quadrinhos. https://hearthis.at/nonaartehq/nona-arte-hq-01

John Constantine is my favorite character in the DC Universe and in Comics in genera, and this week we'll be looking into his origins. John Constantine was created by writer Alan Moore and artists Steve Bissette and John Totleben and first appeared in The Saga of the Swamp Thing issue 37 back in 1985. The story goes that Bissette and Totleben were huge fans of The Police and really wanted to draw a character that resembled Sting. So Alan Moore obliged them and created the character of John Constantine, the quintessential anti-hero, mage, con-man change smoker that will always do what's right...as long as it suits his purpose.

VOTE [poll id="168"] Saga of the Swamp Thing Volume 1 From 1983 through 1987, a young British writer named Alan Moore revolutionized the American comic book. His groundbreaking tenure on DC Comics’ SWAMP THING set new standards for graphic storytelling and touched off a revolution in the medium that is still expanding today. Building on the title’s framework of gothic horror with a remarkably intuitive narrative style and an unprecedented depth of characterization, Moore’s vision was realized through the hauntingly beautiful artwork of such collaborators as Stephen Bissette, John Totleben, Dan Day and Rick Veitch. The result is one of comics’ most enduring masterpieces. Now, for the first time, Moore’s entire run — including his never-before-reprinted debut issue — is available in archival hardcover editions.
