Hier ist mein 'Newsletter' worin bisschen Werbung für meine tolle Webseite gemacht wird. Ist auf Englisch, aber die Seite ist zum Grossteil Bildmaterial, voll viel zum Gucken. Wenn ihr wollt kann ich das hier auch noch übersetzen. Ueberhaupt, wuerde es sich eigentlich lohnen die Textseiten die zu den Bildern führen auch nochmal auf Deutsch anzubieten?



Dachshund Early Comics (April 2003)

My website presenting early comics is now devided into 7 chronological sections:

300/500-1000
http://bugpowder.com/andy/earlycomics.html
Early Christian illustrators of books and scrolls start using comics technique.


1000-1700
http://bugpowder.com/andy/earlycomics1000.html
Comics are a rare, but suprisingly modern looking feature of Gothic book illustration. Around 1500 comics technique largely disappears.


1700-1800
http://bugpowder.com/andy/earlycomics1700.html
Hogarth introduces modern comical subjects into narrative picture sequences.
Goez manages to come up with the first comic that doesn't mix comics technique with illustration technique, but is a comic-strip from beginning to end (1783).
English caricatures flourish and introduce a new cartoony style.


1800-1859
http://bugpowder.com/andy/earlycomics1800.html
The modern comic evolves.


1859-1896
http://bugpowder.com/andy/earlycomics1859.html
Wilhelm Busch revolutionizes illustration styles with his vigourous, streamlined artwork.
Comics become a massmarket phenomenon, published in magazines with large printruns.


1896-1910
http://bugpowder.com/andy/earlycomics1896.html
Enter the modern speechballoon comic. An enormous amount of high quality work is produced in America.


1910-1929
http://bugpowder.com/andy/earlycomics1910.html
Comics become more and more popular. The website stops with the year 1929, when Herge created Tintin.


Finally a long text page (8000 words) combining all 7 sections:
