So I was just reading something aloud to Dan (yes, something -- I'm withholding information for the sake of suspense), and he stopped me, saying, "Wait... This is who writing this?"
"Jhonen," I said.
A pause. "Jhonen Vasquez?"
"The very same."
"Our Jhonen Vasquez."
A nod.
Another pause, a shake of the head, a smile and a verdict: "The kid's all right."
So what was that something? Go, read it: Jhonen's post on Chumble Spuzz by Ethan Nicolle, the joy of creation, the artist as the master of control (even if what he's creating is seemingly chaotic and about naked old men) and painful regrets. And laughing.
I actually can’t recall the last time a comic made me laugh as hard as this one did as well as immediately fill me with an immense respect for what Ethan Nicolle has done in these works of brilliantly executed stupidity. |
