How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way

Superhero creator and Marvel Comics legend, Stan Lee, together with Marvel's top artist, John Buscema, demonstrate the skills needed to create compelling characters and scenes for drawing and writing comic books. Based on the book of the same name, the video became an educational classic for aspiring cartoonists and is also available on DVD. Stan Lee's flair for humor and close friendship with Buscema adds to this good-natured instructional video a sense of drama, action and fun. Stan Lee's inimitable talent for creating superheroes (Spider Man, The Incredible Hulk, etc.) and Buscema's own creations (Conan the Barbarian, Silver Surfer, etc.) meshes well in the conversation and makes this a special treat for comic book fans as well as cartoonists on all levels

Charlie Brown is having hallucinations as a result of a rash on the back of his head resembling the stitchings of a baseball, most notably seeing the rising sun as a baseball. He goes to camp to take his mind off of baseball with a paper sack on his head to cover up said rash and is suddenly elected camp president as the other kids find his appearance cool. But then he removes his sack the next morning and becomes uncool again. He watches the sun rise, fearing that it will appear as a rising baseball. Instead, the sun is replaced with MAD Magazine mascot Alfred E. Neuman.

This french documentary is an amazing economical investigation into Marvel company. So it's not really about the stories or the craft as the artists only appear when they are briefed into a special project to boost the sales or to give their opinion about the management of the suits! It's really an eye opener on how capitalism works: the stocks buyers know nothing about the marvel universe and for them, Marvel is just another meeting on their agenda with bankers; The best proof of that reality is that the main protagonist is the company lawyer, taped alone in a huge glass office at the top of Manhattan skyline! It's sure that the 90s had badly began for Marvel comics with all those special editions, covers but they ended pretty well as Xmen, Spiderman and Iron Man movies were outstanding, totally capturing the essence and mythology of the characters. Next, Millar and the Ultimates were kicking ass in the early millennium and all this put Marvel back at the top as told in the documentary. But they think they are safe now with Disney and faraway of all financial troubles but since this take over, I don't find any more good comics (except Allred) or great movies from the company! Anyway this documentary is intelligent as it asks the essential question: What are Spidey & co? comics or cultural icons that can leave forever the print for other visual medias and merchandising ????
