What if comic books were more than just colorful stories for kids? Join me as I sit down with Michael Morse, an expert in comic book history and an artist with a penchant for Godzilla-inspired figurines. Michael reveals the complexities behind producing official merchandise and shares his mission to elevate comics as a respected art form.
This episode provides a fascinating look at the artistic processes behind comic book creation, drawing inspiration from Japanese kaiju genres and iconic American series like Watchmen. We compare the narrative techniques in comics to those in traditional literature, discussing how memory and time play crucial roles in storytelling. Michael's insights extend beyond the panels to touch on the cultural impact of comics and how these visual stories resonate with contemporary issues.
The history of American comics is richer than you might think. From the pioneering works of Winsor McCay to the underground revolution led by figures like Robert Crumb and Art Spiegelman, we chart the evolution of this vibrant medium. Discover how the Comics Code Authority shaped—and sometimes stifled—creative expression, and learn about the resurgence through underground comics and Marvel's bold moves. Whether you're a comic book aficionado or a casual reader, this episode highlights the artistic depth and cultural significance of comics, urging a reevaluation of their place in the world of art and literature.
