The Whitest Boy Alive.

GOLDEN CAGE!!

Amigos Latinoamericanos y Mexicanos ojo con esto!



ACTUALIZACION.
Hace rato se puso el post en relacion al tema por parte de uno de los colaboradores de Supercomics.
El buen Jose Miguel Alva Marquina en su calidad de editor ha puesto la nota a verificacion esperando que las personas mencionadas en Supercomics, en muchos journals y en este post, puedan defenderse o establecer la valia de sus cursos (creo que es lo mas justo para ambas partes).
Asi que pues si hay alguna noticia sobre lo mismo lo informare aqui o ponder un link para dar el seguimiento.

Si no saben de que hablo, lean lo que escribio el buen Norihiko en su journal.
Uno de esos buenos amigos que encuentras en tu vida le ha pasado algo medio feo o gacho y aqui les expongo el caso.
Estos weyes le bajaron 1500 pesos y neta si es un lana...
Ojala mi amigo Norihiko Matsumoto se ponga las pilas y meta su demanda a la PROFECO.

D E N U N C I A

El año pasado empece a estudiar la carrera de Dibujantes Profesional de Comics e Ilustrador Publicitario con la Sociedad Nacional de Dibujantes Historietistas e Ilustradores Publicitarios A.C., que segun esto tienen el apoyo de la secretaria del trabajo y prevision social y radican en Toluca.

Llegue a la pagina de internet de ellos por andar buscando informacion del Maestro Ramon Valdiosera señor al que le debemos la epoca de oro de la historieta mexicana. Esta pagina de Internet, horriblemente hecha, mostraba una lista de maestros, en su mayoria dibujantes consagrados de la historieta mexicana, entre los que recuerdo a Ramon Valdiosera, Sixto Valencia, Jose Duran y Hector Quiroz si no me equivoco.

Desde el principio tuve sospechas de esta sociedad (por la pagina que estaba horrible) pero el ver la posibilidad de tener la guia de estos maestros me emociono de mas y me inscribi.

Las clases eran los sabados por internet y poco a poco me fui decepcionando por multiples cosas como los errores de ortografias en el material que entregaban (lo cual dice que no toman enserio esto) que las clases eran solo un monologo, entrega de material para leer y examenes, nunca llegue a hablar con alguno de estos maestros, de hecho nunca se presentaban y muchas veces no habia clases.


Hace como un mes contacte por fin al Sr. Ramon Valdiosera y le pregunte por los de esta sociedad a lo que me respondio que no tenia que ver con ellos, que alguna vez él y todos los maestros de la lista se reunieron con los directivos, pero nunca acordaron el dar clases ahi, sin embargo estas personas aprovecharon esto para poder hacerse promocion y asi capturar alumnos, como me paso a mi.

Cuando vinieron los de ¡Ka-Boom! Estudio, le pregunte a Oscar Gonzalez Loyo si los de esta sociedad eran de fiar y tanto el como Horacio Sandoval me dijeron que no.


Volvi a checar la pagina de esta sociedad, la cual ya habia cambiado a la version que esta ahorita y ya no habia la lista de los maestros que menciono, por lo que cuando ellos me contactaron para reanudar clases aproveche para preguntarles el porque ya no estaba esta lista y despues de ignorarme varias veces acabaron diciendo que estos maestros estaban ocupados con trabajos en el extranjero y que el Maestro Ramon Valdiosera estaba algo enfermo.

Esto se lo comente a mi tia, la cual hizo una llamada a la oficina donde trabaja el Sr. Valdiosera y ahi le dijeron que se encontraba en perfecto estado de salud y que solo estaba muy ocupado con la proxima inauguracion de un Museo virtual de la historieta e Ilustracion Mexicana. Por cierto, el Maestro Valdiosera abrio una Academia de Arte Secuencial, aqui pueden leer la nota

http://www.sociedadnacionaldedibujantes.com.mx/index_archivos/frame.html

Asi que como ven, esta Sociedad se ha aprovechado de los nombres de estos Maestros para hacerse publicidad, asi capturar alumnos y poder sacarles dinero con clases muy pobres y aparte mentir sobre lo que pasa con estos Maestros y asi justificar el porque no ha podido dar clases.

Si conocen a alguien que este estudiando con ellos, avisenle sobre esto, pues no conviene gastar dinero y tiempo en gente mentirosa y que posiblemente el titulo que dan tambien sea falso o conlleve algun proposito que solo a ellos les convenga.

Deathproof


When you watch a movie of Quentin Tarantino there are many things to take in consideration
1.-To understand his vision of giving homages to the B-flicks, cult movies, cartoons, comics He saw over his childhood. If you like that kind of movies or you have a similar background you will be absolutely related to his movies.
2.-To have a certain fond for gore, explicit topics, dark sense of humor and sarcasm.
3.-He likes to play tricks and make fun of us. He is an expert to set moods, many of them in the verge of bad taste.
4.-If you want to make sense to some of the arguments or plots, you are wrong. many of them are only to enjoy and remember the old times sake.
His world is full of nonsense ergo REALITY.
5.-If you care too much for quality in the soundtrack.

I need to watch the second part directed by Rodriguez but I can say that this a beautiful movie, If you are okey at least to two of the mentioned points, You would love the movie!

Have a great day!

Tossing ideas.


This the first idea of an illustration I am doing for a magazine, I still dunno if this will be the last cut, I need to work in the background that is the main idea of the article so stay tune when I have something done!!!
Yeaph, I am working in the pencil work of the final pages of the project I have been working all this month!
Be good!

Luchas Night!!!! Waiting for a signature!


Today was quite good in many aspects, My nephew went with me again to Las Luchas after a month (He has been sick over the past days, and infection in teh ear and an agressive sore throat).
Today at least they were giving a decent show and I had the chance to take some photos with Magadan, Averno, Mefisto and also Silver Dragon (an amazing queretan wrestler) and I waited over an hour to have a signature over a comic (Mistico was only signing a piece, I still dunno why I got so lucky and He signed two pieces, this comic and the Cover or Record a magazine where He was portrayed).
About Mistico the comic, I have a very good friend working on the comic (Ulises Grostieta) and a person I always call "Mister" (I respect enormously Oscar Bazaldua the penciler in the comic and a nice humble person). I still have mixed feelings because it is a good comic, period. Probably I was expecting more of a comic like that but in the overall it is a great effort with a lousy lousy Cover.
And the thing that gets on my nerves from the comic is that the names of Bazaldua and Grostieta and Martinez (the inker) are not in the Cover (They deserve that). Anyway I got my comic signed by Mistico and hopefully in a Convention to get my signatures from the artist involved.

Luchas Night!!!! A very good twist in the plot!! Nice!
















I am coming back from Las Luchas and Perrito Aguayo gave an incredible show with Shocker, El Terrible and Dos Caras Jr. Btw today Dos Caras used my favorite outfit He has in my personal opinion.
A nice night, at the end of the fight all The Perros started hitting on Dos Caras a nice twist from what I have seen in ages.
As my nephew could not go this time to Las Luchas I bought him some toys and tomorrow early morning I will give them to him.

Have a good day!

Der Müde Tod 1921


This is maybe one of the best movies ever done for many many many situations, firstable I have to say that I had finally the chance to see this movie in a cultural channel in my country (Canal 22) yesterday night while trying to get asleep, happens I was with low pressure and high pressure all night and a bit of fever I am still a bit sick but I am much better.
Well into the movie I still do not know why it was called in English DESTINY or THE CIRCLE OF DESTINY in my opinion I guess the best translation is THE WEARY DEATH, in fact for spanish and french viewers you can find it by the title THE 3 LIGHTS (Las tres luces) a bad decision in translation in terms of wrapping the main plot as the whole concept into the 3 subplots given by three creepy love stories.
This is one of the movies I wish everybody had the opportunity to watch even for research aspects, as I read in a site and the way that summarizes everything is that in the first years of the 20th Century while United States was trying to make naive and lousy attempts and experiments with the new format that movies became, German movies were playing with the maturity that the skills of the new format gave to german directors and were trying hard to tell stories in different and innovative ways(I have to say that many european directors had this new format dominated in those early years).
Destiny or The Circle of Destiny is a round movie with a great ending!

Watch this movie if you can!!

Have a great week!

SICHININ NO TOMURAI 2005


© 2004 BANDAI VISUAL, TOKYO FM and OFFICE KITANO


I was watching Cinemax late night while inking the pages I am working and I bumped into this very good dark comedy story from Dankan from what I read previously Dankan was a writer involved in TV shows mainly sitcoms and this is his opera prima.
It is quite naive in terms of the visuals and in fact the script is the core and strong base of the movie.
Watch it it is a worth movie to mention and watch!!
