At the request of a friend, I find the comments on the website presumptuously named "Captain Thunder On Line" (as last Update refers to April this year, no less) that the second album dedicated to the famous cartoon character that is being planned right now in Editorial "B" after "The last fight" (an initiative on the other logical and expected, given the popularity, for disparate reasons, that has reached the first comic) no longer has the support of Joan Boix to pencils, the same Joan Boix, through a commentary published in the last entry appeared to date in that page, is responsible to confirm, with the addition-controlling anger barely
certain logic in any work which is dispensed in a project that has taken part initially, that this time the graphics will fall on the writer's first album, Ricard Ferrandiz ... What occurs to me I feel this news after having had the narrative work of this man in "The last fight? Well that may be working as an illustrator in this timely second album (which pretend to coincide with the premiere of the film in theaters) to the height (or should we say "inshore"?) Than it did at that ... And thus continues the obstinacy of Editions "B" to bury such a character that has provided good returns since the fund was Bruguera in 1986 ... Does anyone know? Because I do not ... What? That there is no English cartoonists (such as Jesus Redondo, certainly the best that has taken the hero in modern era) suitable to return to dignify methane Thunder and finally in the XXI century as the best character who has given the national comic strip? Why so much effort by the publisher not to do things like ask the fans and back again and again to piss off the staff with initiatives that do not like at all? It is not hard, dammit! Do not want to sell comics? Well able to do things, dammit! It's funny that the person responsible for that blunder of literary story called "The ultimate fighting ", the narrative is what precisely has been more rebuke, not only should not go back on track in the work as a writer of the illustrious captain, but now over, we'll have to see ... The Thunder drawing normal in these cases would be to say that should give him the benefit of the doubt, but after the huge disappointment caused to the album you already know me and leads me not to hesitate at all if it will do well or badly, but now I believe strongly that we will face another disappointment of those who make history, as his earlier work.
I've been searching the web graphic works where it Ferrándiz record serves as the absolute author amb you
areas: drawing and script. I found this, "curiously" also published by Ediciones B. Initially called attention to the case of a comic book aimed at a predominantly adult audience for its erotic content ... Who knows! Maybe the idea for this second album Ferrándiz Thunder is to sell the character using the tactic efficacious always openly commercial sex ... To do so, please, to see if they get the fans not to buy Thunder this new story and the possible bump Editorial "B" for that fact is of órdago, though, who am I kidding? Sure to be sold, for better or for worse! So put "Captain Thunder" on the cover, even if folleteo to pour, and serve to further enrich a company that absolutely love the character! Judging by this cover, Ferrándiz not seem bad artist, but is an artist suitable for Thunder? Moreover, what is a good writer? Therein lies the crux of the matter.
Curiously, something similar happened with the new adventures of Jabato, but in reverse. His first new history was given by José Revilla (illustrator) and Luis Antonio Rodenas (writer). In the second, Jose Revilla also charged with the responsibility of the scripts ... The difference with Captain Thunder is that both albums respect the original essence of the hero Iberian, and Thunder, simply, no.
What I'm rushing, perhaps, with these arguments? Let us not be deluded ... With "The last fight" we were wrong ... Do you really now be different?
