Great Stories, Fantastic Art, Beautiful PresentationBy James DawsonTwo great stories by Grant Morrison, fantastic art on both by Philip Bond and everything's beautifully printed in this oversize Deluxe Edition. What more could you want? The humor is pitch black in "Kill Your Boyfriend" and charmingly deadpan in "Vimanarama" (which would make a terrific movie). Highly recommended! Two vibrant, disruptive and groundbreaking narratives from comics auteurs Grant Morrison and Philip Bondmdash;collected in their entirety for the first time ever! When yoursquo;re a teenager, any bad day can feel like the end of the worldmdash;especially in the stifling domesticity of English suburbia. The boredom of everyday life and the inescapability of bourgeois existence make death seem like an attractive option. But what happens when the excitement you crave actually arrives in full force? The answer may surprise you! In KILL YOUR BOYFRIEND, two young lovers trade middle-class security for murder, drugs and hormone-driven anarchy. Is unbridled hedonism really everything itrsquo;s cracked up to be? Of course it is! In VIMANARAMA, a nervous bride and groom anticipate their first meeting, only to be interrupted by immortal avatars of light and shadow battling over the fate of the world.

  • Purified by Blood
    Clementine van Eck Clementine van Eck Clementine van Eck Purified by Blood Honour Killings amongst Turks in the Netherlands Purified by Blood Honour killings are murders that are carried out to purify tarnished honour, the honour in question being namus. Both men and women possess namus. For women and girls, namus means chastity, while for men it means having chaste female family members. Honour killing is a widely known phenomenon in Turkey, where the Hürriyet newspaper reports an average of six such killings a month. As a result of migra- tion since the 1960s and 1970s, we also encounter it in Western Europe (the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Sweden and Denmark). This study examines in detail 20 cases of honour killing by Turks in the Netherlands. Particular atten- tion is given to the social factors that play a role in the decision to commit an honour killing. Clementine van Eck studied Cultural anthropology and Turkish language and literature. She now teaches courses on honour killing and intercultural communication to the police.

  • La Comedia (Sobre)Humana Grant Morrison Y Multiversity
    Revista LUTHOR Nro. 27 p. 26 La Comedia (Sobre)Humana Grant Morrison y Multiversity Amadeo Gandolfo 1. La crítica . el análisis del discurso no es ni puede ser ”interno”, porque ni siquiera podemos identificar lo que hay que describir en una superficie discursiva, sin tener hipótesis sobre las condiciones pro- ductivas. (Eliseo Verón, ”El sentido como producción discursiva”, 1993, 127.) En los últimos años descendió sobre los lectores, incluso sobre aquellos que pertenecemos a la Santa Iglesia de Grant Morrison, una general sensación de que el trabajo superheroico del escocés está perdiendo su sentido. O al menos su carácter utópico. Hay varias etapas en la carrera de Morrison y si me pongo a delinearlas a todas acá y extenderme en sus características podríamos tener un artículo el doble de largo1 pero se puede sintetizar lo siguiente: de 1996 hasta su retorno a DC en el 2005 se desarrolla la primer gran etapa de Morrison como adalid del optimismo y la creación exagerada, pop, psicodélica, absurda y un poco naif del mundo de los superhéroes. El Morrison que antes que teorizar en sus entrevistas, cumple y hace, que trae 1 Además se podría hablar de dos líneas simultáneas todo el tiempo: por un lado su trabajo independiente y por otro su trabajo superheroico. Sin embargo estas dos líneas se entrecruzan y polinizan de forma cruzada de forma constante: no se puede pensar en New X-Men (y Marvel Boy) sin Seaguy, no se puede pensar en JLA sin The Invisibles, no se puede pensar en Multiversity sin Annihilator y Nameless.

  • Q&A with Grant Morrison, Author of SUPERGODS
    Q&A with Grant Morrison, author of SUPERGODS Question: In Supergods you talk about the history of superheroes in comic books, in movies, and even in real life: Looking to the future, do you think superheroes will be most important in traditional comic books, in film, or in our three-dimensional world? Or maybe some other possibility (e.g. the internet)? Grant Morrison: Traditional comic books are still created for a specialist market which is likely to diminish as the years go by, in much the same way that poetry went from being a popular form to something enjoyed mainly by enthusiasts. Superhero characters will, of course, simply migrate to more popular onscreen formats – i.e. games and movies – and flourish there. We’ll always have superheroes and certain figures like Batman are likely to retain a place in popular culture for at least as long as, say, Sherlock Holmes or even Robin Hood have done. As for real life superheroes, I expect we’ll hear more about the home made crime-fighters out there, but there’s already military technology that closely resembles Iron Man’s early armour. Throw in medical advances, prosthetics, mind-controlled machinery and performance-enhancing drugs and it seems safe to say there will be genuine superhumans walking among us within the next couple of generations, with all that entails. Let’s hope they don’t forget the “hero” part of the job description. Q: Do you prefer working with complete, unfettered independence, as when you’re writing your own original creations – like The Filth – or do you prefer picking up the story of a long-running, iconic figure like you’re recent work with Superman, where you’re developing the story of a character who already lives in the minds of a billion people? GM: I’ve always enjoyed the opportunity to add to some glittery bits of mosaic to the decades-deep, ongoing legends of Superman, Batman or the X-Men but having said that, the pressure to conform to what readers expect from these characters while attempting to say something fresh or personal can be onerous at times.
