Description
Finally got around to do this. It was harder than I expected. So follow me around the room, starting with the 3x3 big one and clockwise:1.- Neil Gaiman - I don't think an explanation or introduction is required here.
2.- Bruce Lee - The Master. Kung Fu, jeet kun do, charisma, philosophy and great films.
3.- Jubei Kibagami - Embassador coolness, anime samurainess, kickassness and Manga Entertainment.
4.- J. Scott Campbell - An impeccable artist who helped bring humor, pop culture, coolness and reality to comics. He also represents the dream that kids out there can do great things in comics if only someone would give a shit to give them a shot, instead of being assholes with their company policies and closed opportunity doors.
5.- William Gibson - Father of Cyber Punk and everything that came after that from Akira to The Matrix to Ghost in the shell.
6.- Rumiko Takahashi - Queen of Manga.
7.- Jim Lee - The Big Guns of his genre. He has influenced so many people and refreshed characters and stories to God Tier.
8.- Dave Mckean - If it's visual, this man cannot only do it. But he will make it better and cooler than you would expect or ever dream of visualizing in your mortal heads. It is beyond me why this man has not yet worked on covers for a comic written by Neil Gaiman and penciled by Jim Lee.
9.- Claude Oscar Monet - A modern/classic or classic /modern artist who did it His Way and reinvented the way shit was done. Goddamn those strokes are too much for words.
10.- George A. Romero & his Zombies - It's fucked now!
11.- Westerns - Clint's spaghettiness helps me visually to include this genre that has been kicking so much ass for such a long time, go ahead pick yourself up anything from a John Wayne to a Leone and feel the hair growing in your chest. Combine this with William Gibson and you got your self some Spike Spiegel and Cowboy Bebop!
12.- Akira Kurosawa & Toshiro Mifune - The dream team of bushido and asian counterpart to all that westerns are for a well, more western audience. He depicts the reality of samurai as much as Jubei depicts what they can be in fantasy.
