Great manga lettering is like a date night outfit—it helps people fall in love with what's underneath, even if you'd be hard pressed to consciously explain why. This excellent piece delves into what makes Phil Christie one of the best in the business.

"...Tezuka's style, which brings the characters' antics to life. His passion for Shakespeare's stories is evident in his unique take on the tales, and that devotion that makes this collection worthwhile." Thank you, Nubia Jade Brice asianmoviepulse.com/2024/03/mang...

One Hundred Tales A wonderful book (a manga, comic, graphic novel, illustrated story, etc.) by the great Osamu Tezuka, who, in his early forties in 1971, adapted the Faust legend as a samurai period piece in Weekly Shonen Jump. 1/5

Comics can take you anywhere

In the first of the four panels of the comic, a suited, kind of retro looking man in a room, smoking a pipe explains, "one of the amazing things about comics is you can go anywhere in them! In the next panel, I could be in the Amazon, or on the Nile, or in a far flung city like Prague or Tokyo. Walk this way with me."
In the second panel, the room remains, but the man is absent. From out of frame there is a thudding sound, and offscreen he yells "Oof! I can't get out. Why can't I get out?" The man is stuck in the first panel.
The third panel follows the second, from the first panel he yells "I'm stuck! Help! Please! The walls are closing in here. I can't- I can't- I need out! Get me out of this frame."
Suddenly the man's head is floating in front of some mountains. "Oh great," he says, more bemused than excited. "Yeah, perfect. What is that, the Andes?? Great place to be with no body. Wow. Yeah, the magic of comics."

I'm gonna paraphrase something @kameronhurley.bsky.social said a number of years ago: Your publisher will try to take as many rights off your work as they can for the least amount of remuneration. Your role is to retain as many rights as possible. This is the game. It's not personal. Negotiate.

Family names. I love them. They also don't matter. We have so many. We use one or two. But we have more. Our matrilineal names get dropped. I loathe that. But we can't keep track of them all. There's not enough time. Shouldn't try to know them all. Life's short. It's also long. It's all so long.

"Osamu Tezuka’s One Hundred Tales is a masterful rendition of the old Faust tale, done in a trademark way unique to the 'Godfather of Manga.' It’s equal parts funny and sad, and it leaves us with an ending that is both uplifting and wistful. 1/2
