Prince Valium

Prince Valium is on of the Phony Pages, a series of hilarious spoofs and satires on classi comics and strips,that Eisner Award winning cartoonist Terry Beatty used to do for the Buyer’s Guide for Comics Fandom. In 1986, Renegade Press published some of these in two comic books.  And thanks to Mike Lynch, all of us can now enjoy the first issue of that great but forgotten gem.

Alison Bechdel on creating Fun Home

Wednesday, March 11th, 2009

MiNDTV35 presents this short video in which Alison Bechdel explains how she went about when writing and later drawing her (quite amazing) autobiographical graphic novel Fun Home.

Getting a glimpse of the creative process of a writer or a cartoonist is always very exciting,  and hearing how she uses Illustrator and Google Image Search when outlining and documenting one single panel in the book is indeed awe-inspiring.  It’s the kind of panel you glimpse over when reading the book, and you never realise how much actual work goes into it.
