Chelo’s Burden

Love and Rockets Vol. 2 :

I closed my first incursion into the world of comics with an introduction to the work of the Hern?ɬ�ndez Bros, for which I chose a collection named Chelo’s Burden, which contains stories by Jaime and Gilbert (Beto) Hern?ɬ�ndez.

The styles of both brothers are quite different, and so is the contents of their stories. As Art Spiegelman, they both write, paint and letter their stories, which is apparently quite uncommon in the comic world.

Here is a sample of Beto’s work:

And a sample of Jaime’s work:

Ana,
Interesting comic.

I like the layout of your blog… I use Wordpress as well.
What template are you using? I like the way it integrates Flickr at the top.

Hi Buzz! This site is based on the default Kubrick template, with some changes in the header and in the stylesheet. The random Flickr picture is just a Filckr badge set to show one picture. Glad you like it!

Ana, tienes que leer Monster, http://www.guiadelcomic.com/comics/monster.htm de Naoki Urasawa y as?ɬ? te adentras tambi?ɬ©n en el manga con uno de los mejores. Dif?ɬ?cil de encontrar, pero merece la pena, yo tuve que encargar el mio. Mi tema es de Theron Parlin y en teor?ɬ?a est?ɬ° en http://www.thoughtmechanics.com/, aunque yo lo pill?ɬ© de otro sitio en el que hac?ɬ?an un concurso de temas. Busca “wordpress 1.5 themes” en el google y tiene que salir. Saludetes.
