(PROGRAMME thousand words. 20 October 2009) The fascination created by this master of the ninth art is such that I'm not sure how to start. His most representative The Spirit , it would be to put on the payroll of the greatest of the great, but this genius, when it seemed lost to the world of comics, came back and reinvented himself and invented a new concept in comics.
He does not like talking about comic art but sequential graphic storytelling, and, under these theoretical premises, created the first graphic novel in history against the backdrop of a New York torn. His genius had appeared in the 40's, in which Spirit was born. This detective superhero with some air in the manner of 40, no superpowers secret identity and fantasy, began his career in newspapers and soon became a comic-book exclusive which developed their adventures. Usually in stories autoconclusivas 7 or 8 pages.
The subject is none other than the fight against crime aided by a series of luxury side of which are the friend of Spirit, Ebony and Detective Dolan.
Spirit is a claim for females, and there are many women who want to conquer, but remains steadfast in its commitment to fight against evil and, often, to reject these nujeres.
This has been controversial, it is said that there is an apparent misogyny Spirit / Eisner and turns the game of seduction and the battle of the sexes in a mockery of women. Not so, not only because the majority of female characters that appear (as Silver Silk), have greater intelligence and ability than men in the series, or because the majority of women who appear are independent and have their work and economic stability, but because you have to read this book in context, it is a work in which the main feature dominating the humor, a bit sarcastic and ironic (a la Lil'Abner Al Capp ), while Spirit is derided at times, and this continuing flight of The Spirit of women gives an air of light comedy. Very suitable for the series to be distributed in newspapers across the U.S. Under this proposed
lightness and ingenuity, it satirizes American society, denouncing the underworld, politicians, police. Women are seductive, provocative, independent, ... And if you mention the racist assumption that Eisner is the Ebony, we must remember that the first black U.S. president was in the story called Ebony The election of President Junior. Under this proposed
lightness and ingenuity, hides an impressive work, which will reveal new frameworks and perspectives in the comic, new views on the characters, the overlapping of cartoons on others, a drawing seemingly easy but very prepared, personalized and many details that make Spirit in a top of the story. We could make a comparison film, Spirit is like Citizen Kane , or Eisner's classic frames are as flat sequences of Billy Wilder, full of detail and precision, giving the foreground to create the atmosphere and detail.
Eisner is proof that the world of illustrators, artists, writers and artists is hard. After leaving The Spirit series in 1956, Eisner did not get to work no more than a publicist. It is true that the series will generate occasional economic benefit from use rights the Syndicates, but does not enjoy any kind of intellectual recognition in a world and a time in the world of comics dominate the fees charged by Marvel and DC Comics (superheroes, mutants, and fantastic world of atoms) or the burgeoning underground comic who was born in San Francisco.
is Europe who rescues him from oblivion. When in 1970 a Swedish publisher offers reeeditar The Spirit, Eisner was reborn in the flame of comic books and wrote two theoretical essays essential to the American comic also enjoy the intellectual recognition that began to enjoy some European authors.
In Spain censorship offender understood well the message of Spirit, that of laugh at the authority, police, and the necklines, suggestive clothing and attitudes of women appeared, caused that was prohibited until 1977. Then Norma Editorial or Cairo brought us The Spirit and Josep Toutain through their journals, albums and publishing Eisner claimed figure. Publishers can not forget about A Contract With God or Will Eisner. When is Comic Art, the sale of posters and illustrations, impossible for an empty pocket.
Eisner became, almost despite himself, a genius, a living figure capable of connecting the golden age of American comics with our time. And this that would have allowed him to retire and live comfortably income, prompted him to complete the last stage of his life masterpieces. In the above and would have to add The last day in Vietnam, Fagin the Jew and The Plot. The True Story of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion.
These last two works as a tribute to the Jewish people of that part. As he explains in the preface to Fagin the Jew, means that whenever you see a Jew in a story plays a negative role, is a thief, a greedy merchant, a moneylender, and he wants to fight this racist hate and explain what makes a boy orphaned in the most popular of English literature, Oliver Twist, and another Jewish orphan boy and one of the most hated and neglected, Fagin, master thieves.
Conspiracy is his posthumous work, the work of political denunciation and comic documentary, which tracks one of the biggest frauds in history, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, a work invented by Russian secret police to justify the Tsar's pogroms against the Jews and, although it has been shown to be false on many occasions, has served and serves to justify hatred and mistreatment of the Jews, who in these Protocols reveal a fictional course and plan to conquer the world. The famous Jewish-Masonic conspiracy.
