Number Please?

Long time without talking about one of my secret loves...Silent Era...
These two movies I will recommend today I had the chance to watch them yesterday at night and they are some of the few Hal Roach movies that doesn´t really fit into the cheesy cliché directing He used to have.
With the work done with Harold Lloyd there is a transition from the amateurish films and soon about 1920 found like the formula of work with Hal Roach and two beautiful examples are:

"Number Please?" done in 1920 and directed by Hal Roach and an assistant, the lead actress as usual the lovely Mildred Davis.

"An Eastern Westerner" done also in 1920 almost same cast filmed by the incredible Pathé studios.

Have a glorious day!!!!

My Word an Angel and Death

I am paying my duties and this is something I promised to do several, several months ago. This is the design of a nice poca madre tipo Paco Espinoza and his creation El Angel de la Muerte. (Angel of Death).
The design is a little cartoony because I wanted to respect his line work.
In case you ask me what about the project The Luchador! written by the great amigo and writer Nik Havert and hand painted by me that I was talking last year well...
It Is in works I hope by the end of the year to have very good news on the matter.
I hope you guys like it and tomorrow I will load another piece of work Lucha-related!!

Great Day!!

Gracias por esperar Espinoza!!!

Love for Dummies: Too High or Too Low,Too Big or Too Little.

Bonita Annita wrote:
Human motivation is so complicated. It´s difficult to walk on somebody else´s shoes, because they don´t fit your feet so you can´t really go through the true experience.

Now I have another question so you guys help me have a wide perspective on the matter. After reading what Annita wrote but also a conversation with one of my best friends (girl) today in the afternoon,We were just analyzing a situation.
I was telling her that I am for the first time really good and feeling plenty but that I do not really understand the motivation of a girl in terms of what She expects from me or from life. So We talk about some people We have in common and there was a situation that was worth to analyze ,I know it is kind of vain but is the way society work at times, I hate this perspective but I wanted to mention this so You could understand my point.

Well... this guy..I will talk..well..He is not the best looking person in the world and besides that The close-minded perception He has from life has made him fall into these circunstances.
1.-To aim high in terms of a girl, He always aims to have the beautiful girl or to the one that always treats him like shit or the one that is really out of his reach. So We were talking that We have limits call them genetical aspects or even social status.
2.-To prejudice people, He thinks that If He can not understand your values You can not be part of his life and you are just a sinner(literally!!!).
3.-His own image of himself is really different to what He thinks it is, I mean I know He has some bigs issues to solve in terms of the conception He has of himself. Sometimes acting as a big jerk just to hide the little and few nice things He has.

So I was telling my friend that this is the first time that I do not know If I am just aiming too high or too little. When I was commenting this She kind of giggle telling me that I could have any girl I want but the right girl has not arrived yet. I have had many kinds of girlfriends I mean for me the social status or the way you look is NOT the priority. I have to say I have the stereotype I really like but for me is more about If I feel comfortable with the person and If I enjoy her conversation and If this girl is really heading to an specific place or goal and If I like the way her saliva and liquids taste.
So my question is.... maybe am I having more problems to find the right person because at the same time I have not these kind of social standard fringes (status, look,etc)? Or maybe because while being afraid of being hurt I had became just picky?

I was also talking to a friend that I need to learn to have people around my life without having big or little expectations on them and learn in not feeling hurt, and try to make people to get closer to me even If I do not have the same direction so I am working in letting myself just flow and be...

Have a great Day!!!

Love for Dummies: Man of Little Faith.

MMMMM Yesterday I was waiting for my teacher who told me that today We will finally agree on the information for next class of the Workshop it was what I did not want, because that means I will not sleep well tonite working on that but what the Heck! :)
I was really hesitant to call this post a Love for Dummies but yesterday I was really angry, firstable the call that I received and later on the attitude of Red Head that is still in my group and at times She is like playful or sometimes is defensive...not that I matter really I mean She just decided She does not want anything with me but Has never happened to you to see the person you like or love destroying herself or himself or even worst without direction and You can not do anything. Sounds funny but yesterday while it was the call-conversation I was wondering..Why are you calling me? What does You know who want? Why after all this time and just having such a vain conversation? or in the class I was wondering Why is red head looking at me in that way If She does not want anything? .
Probably Ego but yesterday I was a bit upset, but I remember the lesson I had some time ago from a friend who told me from both situations "If the lesson She has to learn is to screw the things up just let her be but be really far..really far from her" now I am really much better and happy!.


Have a great day!!

Sweet Dying Chants In My Sour Ears

Yesterday was really cool, I went to Las Luchas and I really enjoyed the semi last fight. I guees it was Mascara and Brazo de Platino VS Los Villanos (incredible pair and workteam!!).
I also enjoyed the fight with Sagrado and Volador.
And the fight with Mistico and Wagner was really good, now I want a new toy I saw a beautiful Wagner official mask and it is 40 bucks, so I am starting to save money to buy it next time He shows himself down my state.:)
I haven´t heard of my teacher and I am a little concerned because If We do not use today or tomorrow to get done with the notes We will work really hard on the night of Friday and Saturday to pull the class and to be honest I want to rest my proper time of the night.
Today seems like a good day I will keep you guys informed.

I am recommending now to listen:
Magic Numbers
Chambao
Nelly Furtado with her new single Maneater.
I am not really fond of Regaee but Matisyahu is Awesome!!

Update number one:
Some minutes ago You Know who called me (newbies check in the archives to see Who You Know is :) )..She wanted to know where I was up to.... Since Feb that I did not know about her..I still do not get why a person who doesn´t want to be with you still just calling..and after the harsh argument last time...I do not understand the process maybe is just me,maybe She wants to be nice but I do no see the point I still do not know If She was(were) about to ask me something but I just answered so cold that probablay I just killed her idea with my attitude. Girls...girls..girls!!!

Great Day!!

My Little Conspiracy XXVIII.

It was shown this Year Book done by my Hose the AACE over the Convention in Barcelona and it is showing the most relevant work done in tebeos over Spain over 2005 similarly to what Glenat used to do in past times, I am including the information in Spanish!! Great People like Sergio Bleda, Tirso Cons, Mel, Fritz, Victor Santos,Alvaro Pons collaborate on this summary. Great magazine go and Buy it!!!
The Cover was done by Paco Rodriguez..a beautiful cover!!!!
Spanish translation:
“Anuario de la historieta: 2005” editado por la Asociación de Autores de Cómic de España.
El “Anuario de la Historieta:2005” cuenta con articulistas y estudiosos (de la talla de Pepe Galvez, Toni Bois, Toni Guiral, Alfons Moliné, Helio Mira...), con entrevistas a dibujantes de especial relevancia durante el pasado año y artículos (sobre cómic USA en España, Manga en España, cómic europeo en España, cómic español en España, derechos de autor, salones de cómic, cómic y cine, cómic infantil, weblogs...) que intentan analizar todo lo acontecido en el mundo del tebeo durante el 2005.
Este anuario, ilustrado por autores asociados a A.A.C.E. (como Victor Santos, tirso Cons, Mel, Fritz...) y cuya portada ha sido realizada por el dibujante Paco Rodriguez, trata de cubrir un vacío editorial que existe en este pais desde aquel, ya lejano, “1993:Un año de tebeos” publicado en su día por Glènat España.

The great Paco Najera is also giving me a sneak peek of the new collaboration in Muy Interesante Junior 20 this time talking about the founders of Rome, Romulo and Remo..great work Paco!!!
The Spanish Version:
Solo una nota para informar de la aparición de una nueva historieta de Paco Najera en la revista Muy Interesante Junior, concretamente la numero 20, en la que Paco nos cuenta una historia sobre los fundadores de la antigua Roma, Romulo y Remo, titulada "Dos bebes y la loba capitolina".

Etna da luz azul a Dante

Today I am going to Las Luchas to see fighting Mistico, Wagner, Atlantis and Black Warrior, I still do not know If I could take some photos because I have not my camera yet. If not for next time!.
These past two days were just to rest my teacher hasn´t come to talk about next Workshop class so I hope that tomorrow He will be home to talk about it. With all this mess with my computer time passed so fast and I am at half the course what means that only 9 classes more and the Workshop will be gone and 2 weeks after that I will finally send my Monography that I have to start this weekend.
Everything is quite good I need to use this week to catch up with mails and talk about future plans!!
I am about to finish the pencils of the Cover of Fair Blues and hopefully next week to start the inking.
I am starting to work in a teaser ad for Rocket Girl.

In my country is very common to celebrate the Day that celebrates your name, in my case today is San Antonio de Padua´s Day (maybe the word will be namesake to describe the Day). In the past at home We used to celebrate the day big time and today I have no big plans...if somethings happens I will let you know...
Great day and Enjoy it!

My Little Conspiracy XXVII.

This is the take that Raul Treviño did for the Thor We both did (You ned to look in the Archives to see my take), I am really happy about the great things that are coming from this friend Regio (from Monterrey) and I am sure more things are coming his way from what I know He is working in number 2 of La Danza de la Conquista his Opera prima and Who knows where He is going to stop.:)
Buy his new Comic La Danza de la Conquista printed by Norma, and I guess in few months to have the English Version.
He edited a video with the process of the printing.
Go and check in on his blog:

Golden and Purple Colors.

I was thinking in what to say because nothing so big happened, maybe Yes, in fact on Friday I went to visit some friends of mine and I had a session of Radiesthesia. (I won´t talk much on the matter, but I can say it was really good the moment). By the way did I mention that Third Death also talks about it...funny how life links things.
For God´s sake!!! "Old Boy" the movie I was waiting to watch got its own way to my hands so I am expecting to watch it today or tomorrow so expect a review...Wondy if there is a way I can get a copy of Lady Vengeance let me know...!
Tomorrow I will go to the Luchas again and and by the way this gave me the perfect story to talk about..
Last "Luchas" time I didn´t go well I went...the story is quite dumb.
Two weeks ago My friend reserved the second row that meant that the show was about to be incredible because Mistico and Wagner were fighting that night, happens that I couldn´t leave early the school because it started to rain cats and dogs, really hard,So I had to wait so a friend of mine could take me nearby with her car, well rain stopped a little but the situation was just chaotic, so many cars, so many crashes, and water and rocks so my friend took another route to go, some wrong decisions and We still do not know why but We were 7 km far away from the starting point and the car in total mud, so We got stuck for 3 hours until her husband arrived to help us and the kind help of a guard that helped us too.
Well me full in mud went to Arena only to tell my friend what it happened, the people in the Luchas place were so nice I think I really looked so badly that they let me get into the last minutes of the last fight to see my friend, and Well I found her and We were just laughing at supper time (We ate hamburgers) at my bad steps over the day. So that is how I went but I didn´t.
But destiny is even greater because Mistico and Wagner are going this time so this gives me the chance to recover last time!! Yayyy!!!

Have a great day!!
