Memorabilia por Sergio Ponchione
A European dude pays tribute to some legendary U.S. comic book creators: Steve Ditko, Jack Kirby, Wally Wood, Will Eisner, and Richard Corben. There are no in-depth biographies or anything; Ponchione just wants to try drawing in their styles and get across that he really, really likes them.
The final volume of Sergio Ponchione's Grotesque ends things in fine fashion, with a characteristic mix of highly inventive story, beautiful comic art, and any number of small homages to the great creators of visual literature to whom Ponchione pays tribute.

The third installment of Sergio Ponchione's Grotesque brings a lot of clarity to the overall narrative, and fleshes out the characer of Mr. O'Blique, who appears to be the central figure in this complex and beautiful tapestry. Ponchione riffs freely off the work of comics artists whom he clearly admires, but the end product is something all his own. With wonderful artwork, an intriguing story, and highly inventive characters, this is definitely a series that deserves wider attention.
The second installment of Sergio Ponchione's Grotesque starts to give considerable shape and direction to the odd (but compelling) narrative initiated in the first volume.
