PENDENTE: Rubrica su Cinema, letteratura, fumetto ed esperienze culturali
Proseguiamo con una rubrica per intenditori dedicata ai fumetti incentrati sugli scenari apocalittici o post apocalittici. In pratica, l'Arte Sequenziale che narra la Fine del Mondo. "Nessuno ha più tempo per la finzione. Ormai la gente è troppo concentrata sulla propria vita...o a spiare quella degli altri" La Terra ha consumato le proprie risorse e la propria creatività, dimenticando i propri sogni e perdendo la speranza. Eppure c'è un oltremondo in cui ci sono risorse da raccogliere e dove l'immaginazione può diventare realtà. In questa landa relativamente desolata, vaga un pistolero solitario. Ed è pure un gorilla. "Six-Gun Gorilla" è qui per divertirvi, stuzzicarvi e appassionarvi alla storia di un futuro alquanto tetro e dove forse solo la fantasia può salvarci.
Oh, what a tangled web we Weavers! For this month's Four-Color Flashback, Paul and Arlo trap Eric Sipple in their web once more, this time to discuss Simon Spurrier & Dylan Burnett's Lovecraftian mob story Weavers. Despite being big fans of Spurrier's (author of past FCF favorites Six-Gun Gorilla and The Spire), Paul and Arlo aren't quite sure what to make of this one, while Eric has some thoughts on why the book is an interesting failure. One thing they can all agree on is Burnett's vibrant, stylish art–and how it elevates everything else on the page. NEXT: Paul and Arlo will return.

This month, Darrin reacts to a few good comics (Turtle Bread, Superman: Warworld Saga, and Batman: Failsafe) plus one very bad one (Amazing Spider-Man #26).

I thought I knew what this book was about, just off the cover and title. I bet you - the person reading this blurb right now - think you have an idea what this book is about. But you don't. I promise you you don't. OKay, sure, there's a gorilla in it who shoots guns but I mean after that. It gets political, it gets sci-fi and it gets trippy. And there's a gorilla in it who shoots guns. There's that too. --Hit us up at comicpatrolpod@gmail.com if you want to add a submission for a future Arc Analysis-- --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (we maybe promise it isn't fluff pics)-- #numeatz #sawftcheeze
Sometimes a gorilla is just a gorilla. Sometimes, though, that gorilla–righteously bearing arms though he may be–is a gateway to a story about the power and fluidity of narrative. For this month's Four-Color Flashback, Paul and Arlo go ape for Si Spurrier and Jeff Stokely's Six-Gun Gorilla, a sci-fi Western published by BOOM! Studios in 2013. The boys discuss Stokely's glorious, hyper-exaggerated art; how the book's entertainment conglomerate dystopia feels like a logical extension of our present; the way Spurrier weaves various pulp genres throughout his story; and more. Plus, Paul got sick in Gatlinburg again and Arlo admits he was wrong about Dune. NEXT: Gobbledygeek will return.

Somethin's comin', somethin' good: this week, Paul and Arlo pirouette through a discussion of Steven Spielberg's new take on West Side Story, nominated for Best Picture at this year's Oscars. Is it a spoiler to say they love it? The boys discuss how Spielberg and screenwriter Tony Kushner's changes enrich the text, why choreographer Justin Peck's bold choice to discard Jerome Robbins' iconic choreography was the right move, what it means for the Sharks to be played by Latinx actors, and the joy of watching Spielberg treat every musical number like his and Janusz Kaminski's playground. Plus, Taco Bell sends Arlo spiraling into an existential crisis, and the boys chat about this year's other Best Picture nominees. NEXT: Si Spurrier and Jeff Stokely's Six-Gun Gorilla is locked and loaded for this month's Four-Color Flashback.

On today's episode I talk to comics writer Si Spurrier. Raised just outside London, Si had a number of different jobs before he began writing for comics. He started with the British small press, after which, he created a number of series for the beloved UK cult comic 2000AD. This success led to work in the American mainstream, which includes runs on Hellblazer, X-Men: Legacy, X-Force, The Dreaming, and the GLAAD award-winning Star Wars: Doctor Aphra. It also led to the opportunity to write a great deal of creator-owned work here, such as The Spire, Coda, Alienated, Six-Gun Gorilla and much more - all of which are well worth your time. Recently, it was announced that Si would be writing a new book as part of Jonathan Hickman's revamped X-Men line!

The 4 Horsemen story line comes to a close in this "Jumping Off" prog. Plus! a discussion of Simon Spurrier's masterpiece Six Gun Gorilla! Skip to 20:26 to avoid the gorilla talk... BUT DON'T!

As we approach the end of the year the Nine Panel gang has started to think about the year in comics. What we have found is that by an overwhelming majority the bulk of the books we talk about are Marvel. Is this a good thing? Only the Nine Panel Awards will tell. This week is no different however as the gang discusses the continuation of the Marvel events, the start of the next Thor God of Thunder arc and Daredevil's continuing battle against bigotry. We also talk about some other titles that you may be missing out on like X-Files Season 10 & Peter Panzerfaust.

Time for another round of Off the Rack reviews. In this episode we discuss Astro City #1 from Vertigo, Daredevil: Dark Nights #1 from Marvel, and Six-Gun Gorilla #1 from BOOM! (1:20:14)
This week on The Comics Alternative, the Two Guys with PhDs review several #1 issues that have come out in the past couple of weeks. First, they discuss two Vertigo titles, Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso's 100 Bullets: Brother Lono, and Kurt Busiek and Brent Anderson's Astro City. Andy and Derek spend a bit of time discussing the earlier series that these new comics are based on, but they also point out how both of these #1 issues are good jumping on points and accessible to readers unfamiliar with 100 Bullets and the earlier Astro City works. In addition, they argue that these two titles are just another indication that earlier worries about Vertigo's fate might have been misplaced. Next they move on to Six-Gun Gorilla (Boom! Studios), written by Simon Spurrier with art by Jeff Stokely. The guys note the unique atmosphere of this title, science fiction in what appears to be a late-nineteen-century-like setting, and of course allude to the original pulp story, serialized in the UK magazine Wizard in 1939, that this comic is based on. Next, Andy and Derek look at another kind of science fiction mashup, Greg Rucka and Michael Lark's Lazarus (Image Comics). This new ongoing series has a lot of promise, and the guys point out how the creators do an incredible job of setting up their premise in this first issue. If these are the kind of #1 issues we can expect to see this summer, then hold onto your sunscreen…the fun is just beginning!

This week Andy and Derek flip through the April Previews catalog, highlighting the various comic books, collections, and original graphic novels solicited this month. They point out a variety of upcoming titles such as Dark Horse's The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys and Battlepug, DC/Vertigo's 100 Bullets: Brother Lono and The Sandman Omnibus Volume 1, IDW's Edison Rex, Image Comic's Lazarus and Infinite Vacation, Archaia's Rubicon, Boom! Studio's Six-Gun Gorilla, Dynamite's Uncanny, and new collections on the works of Steve Ditko (two of them!), Jack Cole, and Al Feldstein. As what usually happens, their discussions of the comics takes them down curious and sundry avenues, some on-topic, some tangential, and some way the hell off course. But keen insights and fun pop culture talk is guaranteed for all!
Our third episode welcomes comics scholar and pulp/victoriana master Jess Nevins to the show to talk about the details in comics. Which really boils down to Jess talking about things like the Golden Age Black Widow, Six Gun Gorilla, and what it's like having Alan Moore as a friend.
