I particularly enjoyed the discussion on superhero comics and the differences between Ware’s own work.

Also enjoyed yours and Chris’ reminiscence of Bob Loescher and his altruistic ability to respond to work and teach. Even in teaching comics, as in a painting or whatever fine art class, the teacher is going to impose their view of what comics are which is either going to be superhero, or personal narrative, or like a Scott McCloudy mish-mosh of both. What comics are capable of, I think it’s very similar to painting, i.e. you have an idea or concept and you have the execution of that idea through process.

Heavy political and social undertones, disguised melodramatic men, and irrational abstract-views of personal reality. There’s tons more to it than that, of course but its two sides of the same coin.
