Felipe Smith is as talented and skilled a manga writer/artist as you will find on any continent, and his work on the latest installment of MBQ
Some of you may remember that I interviewed Felipe last December for my Making Good column. Well in honor of his Meltdown appearance tonight, I’m doing an exclusive follow-up interview with him right here on this blog. Look for it later today.
In the meantime, check out Felipe’s own behind-the-scenes look at MBQ: Deadline Ass-Beating Volume 1
And the details for tonight:
Just Arrived @ Meltdown:
NEW! Bill Presing. BELLE DU JOUR: CHEESECAKE BY BILL PRESING. 2007. 1st. 7×9, 96pp, color, cloth spine, pictorial boards. A swell book by this Pixar artist. “Ten years of Cheesecake drawings 1997-2007.” Chris Sanders’ cheesecake has nothing on Bill’s! There is a hint of Freddy Moore in Bill’s girls which are all curves and good clean wholesome stuff. The book itself looks and feels like a million bucks with a great design and three-quarter cloth covers! Don’t miss this one!

In this full-color graphic novel, Jason posits a strange, violent world in which contract killers can be hired to rub out pests, be they dysfunctional relatives, abusive co-workers, loud neighbors, or just annoyances in general — and as you might imagine, their services are in heavy demand. One such killer is given the unique job of traveling back in time to kill Adolf Hitler in 1939… but things go spectacularly wrong. Hitler overpowers the would-be assassin and sends himself to the present, leaving the killer stranded in the past. The killer eventually finds his way back to the present by simply waiting the decades out as he ages, and teams up with his now much-younger girlfriend to track down the missing fascist dictator… at which point the book veers further into Jason territory, as the cartoonist’s minimalist, wickedly dry sense of humor slows down the story to a crawl: for long patches absolutely nothing happens, but nobody can make nothing happening as riotously entertaining as Jason does… and finally, when the reader isn’t paying attention, he brings it together with a shocking, perfectly logical and yet completely unexpected climax which also solves a mystery from the very beginning of the book the reader had forgotten about. As always, I Killed Adolf Hitler is rendered in Jason’s crisp deadpan neo-clear-line style, once again augmented by lovely, understated coloring.

Steve Rogers, the Sentinel of Liberty, was cut down in a hail of gunfire in March’s CAPTAIN AMERICA #25. And whether or not you agree with the decision, he’s still dead. But a character as iconic and important as Cap can never truly die. Who better to reimagine Cap for a new age, a new character, a new costume, than Alex Ross? Working closely with Ed Brubaker, Steve Epting and Tom Brevoort, Captain America makes his return—or debut, if you prefer—in January’s CAPTAIN AMERICA #34.
