Comic in Mexico hz requested that this forum also habalr comics. In general. And I pafrece a great idea. Here
posting your comment that deserves a better place to be at the end of the comments. It goes without correction
so I do not say if there are faults of ortho.
BTW, I think with comics the same thing happens with money: people confuse it with the goal. The money (like the comic) is a medium. No final order. As long as the ultimate goal, will the complaints, the bitterness and broken dreams. That's why OGL is made "so heavy" and so "hard" and as "ungrateful" and therefore people like Bachan is looking for ways to really live the comic different and unorthodox. Bachan curiously does not seem something inngrato " and "hard" ...
Here the comment of hz
"Well, here is the comment has written more miles than ever. Let's see who endures to the end and answers.

ray Well .. where to start? Because can not live a comfortable and relaxed doing comics as they do in other countries? ... kizas this is the first mistake, thinking ke so it is in other countries, and the comic ke large mansions and castles have at your disposal subjects .. not an invention, people ke think so.
kiero I just live well, and not have to do something else to get to the end of the month.
Kizas have to start with the country ... this is Mexico, no Belgium, France, Japan or the United States. I heard / read people saying that uneducated people (call it "stupid") who can not appreciate beyond old around naked and gossip magazines and soap operas, is that the comic does not move around here. Since when have the American public is very cult? .. or Japanese? .. are consumers, though, and I feel it is one of the problems. Purchasing power, the economy in general in our Latin countries is quite poor, much worse than 20 years ago, and since the final, this is nothing more than entertainment (even with all the philosophy and teachings and other messages and your like) as the comic is not on the priority of the budget of the people.
But who are these people that if you buy comics?
For these latitudes, Historically, consumers of comics were always children and youth. Things like social or political critics were left to cartoonists who lampooned in newspapers or magazines. People into comics in the past was not gross, worse perhaps did not want, or not allowed to play more adult themes, including social (there were countries in which artists, as well as other artists, including comedians and others, were prison for "crossing the line). So the theme was left more in child / youth.
Because children do not work, because the money for his hobby came from his parents, in an era when television was perhaps the as widespread as the internet right now (when I was a child, about 15-20 years not everyone had a TV in your home), there was no spectacular video games available, there was no such form of entertainment with which to compete.
Who is surprised now that the comic does not have so much drive? .. and still not die. It is a very special form of expression that is unlike any other and simply maintained, despite everything. God knows why.
The fact is that for a parent with more or less purchasing power (or both), it is easier to make your child stay calm, or happy birthday or special days, with internet, movies with pirates who put get to 15 pesos, download music to your cell phone, play ps3 or xbox or pods like that .. to buy a piece of paper shields and not to be used once for half an hour?
The adult does not buy comics to read, and if so, is a mature fenemenoide never knew. So the comics market is small, that must be faced and now.
In other countries, like Japan and France, Belgium too .. the comic is somewhat more diverse, not just for little kids. There are comics for all audiences, and there are public that consumes it. From children's stories, to suspense, horror, historical novels, science fiction and. In short, you know. That is, kizas, because the comic learned from their HomeThere root nearly a century ago, in the taste of all ages, covering all manner of public .. was the era when "born" the comic as we know it .. and as a child was taught to embrace and manage various aspects, and now, as "adult" and is able to deal with solvency. I say first hand, as my uncle is of Belgian origin, and his cousin was the author of comics (specifically one called "Tif et Tondu" relatively good reputation for Akella sides), and my uncle that I have known comic in France and Belgium is not considered fenemenos rare thing, and to work on it is not particularly frowned upon. By contrast, the comic is part of popular culture a proud, up statue Tintin museum. And is not unique.
is the kind of "comic culture" we want? I suppose that if .. but them worked for decades .. and us? with Memin and Kalim and we ka?
We must also see the other side of all this ... who is making comics? who are the authors of our region? because it speaks much more than those who buy comics, that those who offer and provide. Who are these freak show dedicated to this poorly paid profession?
Without doubt they are people without much material aspirations, at least initially .. or simply deluded, but I think most non-ke these. Most of those I know, are people dedicated to graphic design, advertising and related trades. In this live, while doing comics for "leisure." Now, not only see the quality of people dedicated to comics (I'd rather skip ke subject to Taylor did not make, or make you keden ke bags to more than one measure, except that I prefer not to be judging people) see also the amount.
does not take much time, right? because apparently not many .. in a country with so many people like this, one would say that the percentage of artists (or authors say) of comics is minimal.
That small amount, while causing little diversity we see. Most of what I have seen is contained in comics "intellectuals" (which I do not mean in a derogatory way, just not put an end to another), comic humor and parody, and comics of "fantasy" and superheroes. Ke I do not say no more genres or themes, but the examples are so rare, are well ... or read comics including more than one genre or theme .. ke with humor, with suspense, science fiction and, finally, understand what I mean. Saying it is even more general, in my opinion, the majority of comics these sides, are very serious, or are clowns. They do not usually get more than one source.
also say that comics writers of these latitudes are not well versed people .. not mean that they are idiots, I still miss ke did not know even a little of a lot of different subjects. Would not surprise me, first because the love of reading in the Latin countries is not well established it seems .. I tell you, I do not know (besides my father) people who are unable or unwilling to take more than 3 books a year .. and I including me. And secondly, I still miss it, having to give birth both to get the support, who will want to take the time to go read books? usually what you want, after a day's work, is to lie down to sleep, to forget that tomorrow is to do the same again .. and their dose of entertainment, as the fastest and efficient as possible, for example, throw a movie or TV series .. one that does not require the use of many neurons, what you want is to rest the brain. By the same token, if one could devote themselves to making comics and live in them, would do best comics tb, porke it would give the time (if you want) to read more things, research more subjects and "nurture" more mentally speaking, since there is no saturation and mental fatigue of being dedicated to doing something ke no kiere is what or interest.
ke
Nothing is out of place and ke pass just because if the human world. We must not see it that way "is that there have to be so the situation!" "Should not be so!", "We must save the environment!" etc. .. if things are so, is for something, and if you're interested to see how they turn around. And it's not the joke be a head against the wall, trying to imitate your neighbor, because their conditions are yours, and you have yours.
Say there is no way and no comic book industry (because for practical purposes, hardly any) .. you want to get your comic .. as you do it? ... save a and a half million dollars and do "mattress" and then print more than 10 000 copies per issue, and fight against the Mafia, as some say? ... naah, realistically. As you would do? ".
