Strange People (Part 1)

2011-10-12T12:09:00.000-07:00

Qui sotto è linkata la prima parte di un vecchio fumetto che disegnai nel 2002,
edito da Medicina Nucleare. La storia e il soggetto
sono di Andrea Antonazzo. Si tratta di una interessante e curiosa storia noir
che attinge sia nella grafica che nella caratterizzazione dei personaggi dai noir
classici anni '30-40 americani, con i bianchi e neri espressionisti.
All'epoca esordivo come fumettista, quindi mi si perdonino certe ingenuità
artistiche-tecniche ;-)))
Come dicevo questa è la prima parte, pubblicata a puntate sul blog di Andrea:
Strange People (prima parte)

You can check out from the URL below the first part of an old comics that
I drawn in 2002, published by Medicina Nucleare (Italy).
The script was written by Andrea Antonazzo, the text is in italian language.
It's a very interesting noir story, in a expressionistic black & white style.
You can enjoy the first part here:

"This crown princess loved breaking the hearts
of princes she had meet! A prince would give
her gifts and she would promptly dump the prince..
A prince was on the verge of taking his own life
because he was led on by the princess until he
meet the witch, he told his story about this princess
to the witch. The witch told him not to worry that
she would take care of it.
One day the princess was enjoying one of her
gifts in the forest, it was a mechanical riding horse,
the only one of its kind! Until she meet the witch,
the witch told the princess about the prince and his
tale of woe.
The princess said it was true, that she was going
to soak each prince for all his worth! The witch
told the princess to give back all the gifts and to
apologize to each prince in person. Of course the
princess said no...
And the witch said, 'I was hoping you would say that!
The witch then told the princess that she was a
maneater and would resemble such a creature.
The witch then transformed the princess into a very
small shark like mermaid creature, and dumped her
into a fish bowl!"
