#Repost @beehivebooks with @get_repost ・・・ Our third annual issue of LAAB MAGAZINE, the newspaper of the radical imagination created and curated by @ronaldwimberly, is now live on Kickstarter. The new issue of this annual experimental art publication is filled to the brim with killer comics, gorgeous illustrations, fascinating interviews, and deep-dive essays by an array of the greatest artists, author and storytellers working today, including @vee_vees, @jasjyotjasjyot, @tadebimpe, @pope_paul, @michael.deforge, @ezracdaniels, @remmoslekkim, @elliedrawseggs, @tracychahwan, @le.amu, @hirosemaryhello, @connorwillumsenltd, @liliamhiga, @shakeeb.abu.hamdan, @yasir.hussain131, @kim__jooha, @yasir.hussain131, @gideonkendall, @mrmtacchia, @aidanalexiskoch, @jingology, and @frank_nikol, among others. . This is a magazine like no other. An inventive, exploratory tangle of image and text, barely contained by it's massive 22x17" broadsheet newspaper format. LAAB was described by The New Yorker as "the hottest comic at recent comic festivals," and by @jeetheer as "the mind mind-boggling comics artifact since the early issues of Acme Novelty Library." It must be seen to be believed. This issue concerns food, waste and sustainability. Please help us continue this exploratory journey to the far reaches of the radical imagination. .

PaulPope - Excelling in New Ideas

Paul Pope and His New and Innovative Comic Illustrations

Official Facebook Page for Paul Pope speaks of him as a critically acclaimed illustrator and writer. He is an acknowledged original is the comic book world. This is might seem easy but that is not actually the case. Once an artist has developed the style of his own, he/she will be using the same motif and visual signatures in the succeeding works, as well. No doubt, devotees and fans of a painter or a writer frequently decry any deviation in the aesthetic genre of the artist.

The comic books written by Paul Pope are rich in its aesthetic style. It narrates the story of a hero fighting against the odds. It has turned out to be challenge to discover new ways for creating heroes with something exclusive. Some artists declare that originality in its truest form is pretty impossible. Artist usually steals, borrow, or get inspired and thus, develop ideas from the predecessor. Many people are of the opinion that leads to originality and this has helped in keeping arts and stories unpredictable. Paul Popes first graphic novel, Sin Titulo, is a very good example of this. This graphic novel is a blend of different style and by doing so he has managed to achieve a distinctive style like a ground breaking work of cultural importance.

As mentioned earlier, the world of comic book is rich with storyteller and artist. This is the reason it becomes difficult to find new idea which increase the demand of passionate comic book lovers. However, Paul Pope revealed much more and he is one of the renowned comic book writers of 21st century. He has been fighting this notion since the release of his latest work, Battling Boy.

Some people have already noticed that introducing a new hero has been difficult because of the influence of Marvel and DC comics of 70s and 80s. Every hero that was created was archetype imaginable. The comic institutions have several years of experience in coming up with the perfect comic book heroes. Thus, for independent artist it seems like a difficult challenge to overcome in the modern age.

Paul Pope has other ideas and he has become the best comic book artist among comic book fans. He has an exclusive visual style which has been compared to Manga meets Jack Kirby. He combines the eastern and the western to create a distinctive and a unique style. This is how he has been able to develop a fan base. His comic illustrations belong to the realm of real art.
