This morning it felt like my brain was coming out of head via my eyes, a strange effect of having a migraine/sinus headache. But I still had to sit down and write in front of the computer. That cleared up (mostly) after lying in a darkened room watching a FLASH episode with the "Pied Piper" (a silly villain in the silver age comics, a vicious bastard in the TV show).

Tomoorow it's out and about which is probably a good thing.  Time to feed the pets and sit outside in the shade.

I've shared this before, and having quoted it in my exegesis I thought I'd post it again. She talks about how incomplete fragments  of a person's life (whether true or not) become a "single story" implying an "only truth" about them.

I was looking for examples of propaganda comics, and found THIS! According to various sources (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_propaganda_comics#Grenada:_Rescued_from_Rape_and_Slavery), this was a CIA produced comic distributed in Grenada just before the US forces occupied that country.  This was at the tale end of the Cold War, but the comic seems fairly crude in what it's saying, more like an old Iron man comic than anything else.

The thing is, I "know" this artist - he did work for DELL and GOLD KEY in the 60s, I know his style. but his work was seldom signed. I'm not 100% sure but I think it's Jack Sparling, as based on examples I found at http://beachbumcomics.blogspot.com.au/2014/05/jazzy-jack-sparling-marvelous-comic.html. I guess work is work.

And one last photo, before new Doctor Who starts.

And one last photo, before new Doctor Who starts. There's something about buildings like this, whether they're in a ghost town in the Wild West, at Kwolyin, Western Australia, or from Linda Valley Tasmania, that evokes a certain pathos, of opportunities both taken and missed, but never to come again. Unlike abandoned mental and medical institutions which can look downright spooky in their desolation, these seem lonely and forlorn.

That moment when, discovering that term coined by a well respected  academic to help analyze comics - arthrology - was ALREADY a medical term meaning "the science concerned with the study of anatomy, function, dysfunction and treatment of joints and articulations."!!!  Did he not check that it might already exist? :P
