One day you will see me begging on street corners, begging me some change for lunch. And the reason is simple: when I see a new comic I can not help but buy it.
Why?
Boh.
Maybe because every time I hope to buy and read the final cartoon, the one whose beauty will fade any other comic I've ever read before. Or maybe it's simply because I like to read and I like the news.
Anyway, I decided to give it a chance even in a comic book from which I had promised myself to keep me away: Cassidy.
Why I did not want to read it?
The reasons are two:
1) The Ruju Pasquale writes. In my Ruju is a wonderful person, a funny guy, a man of gold. But not have never been able to appreciate one of his stories. E 'stronger than me. Ruju is my kryptonite.
2) Caravan.
The reason number two it could seem a bit 'dark, so I'll explain. About twelve months ago started a new miniseries and Bonelli, given the axiom that the first number is not denied to anyone, I decided to look at it.
Result: I was thrilled.
There was pathos, there was a desperate situation that threatened to become even more desperate, a mystery mysterious background, the feeling that at any moment anything could happen, since the arrival of the aliens to zombies rising from land. There was
fell with all the shoes.
Twelve months later, the series is over. The ending is the most irritating you can read in the world. It 's a final-final, which explains nothing, it leaves a conclusion worthy of the name but can in rare attempt not mean shit and at the same time, be able to bring inconsistencies.
And to make matters worse, the editorial is a brilliant man named Gianmaria deliberate spoiler against a great film like "The Usual Suspects", which is built almost entirely on the final surprise.
Now, I personally think that there is a place in Hell reserved for those spoilers, which are doomed to read books and see movies that they already know the end, for eternity. And I know for a fact that Gianmaria against us will end up in that special spot in Hell. But still I feel that at least a little justice on earth and that I should pursue justice on earth I would push for a boycott of any future categorically miniseries Bonelli.
This was my decision.
Then I had a cold shower, I vented to the gym, I kicked the pups and I burned a couple of bums.
Finally, the last issue of anger provocatami Caravan had almost convinced me to write a post full of sputazzi and horrible blasphemy, but in the end I gave all'angioletto that is on my right shoulder and I decided to give up. I felt drained. So I
said "ok, Caravan is a disgusting, we turn the page and go forward."
And here came Cassidy.
Bonelli's new miniseries about Raymond Cassidy, a blond man condemned to having two huge sopracciglioni blacks all my life.
START SPOILER (spoiler because I do not ever understand Gianmaria, 'I do not ever spoiler!)
Ok.
early introduction is more or less understand everything there is to know about comics, the action is brought in the 70's, all made of inspectors Callahan, Steve McQueen, fast cars, guns and fuciloni.
If any man stuck in a movie theater and you see thirty films of that Gender and ask him to write a comic, in the end it will come out Cassidy.
This comic is definitely a product derivative, which has come with the ugly default of about thirty years too late. Absolutely does not add anything to what we have seen millions of times more.
Cassidy is the leader of a gang. They do a robbery. His comrades betray him.
This is half the story of this first issue. Stop me if you already know.
mortally wounded, Cassidy meets a mysterious blind bluesman, found the harmonica and he gave him 18 months to put things right.
Why 18 months? It is not known. A Ruju turned her ass to make a miniseries of eighteen numbers and has invented this number, not even make an effort to give him some special meaning, as I know, pulling the ball in numerology, the Cabala, the cazzonesoismo. However
.
The "magical resurrection in time 'is a million times you've seen (so far I can only think of the movie" Jack Frost "with Michael Keaton, but certainly there are many others), and then, once again , Ruju does nothing but draw liberally from the cauldron of the already seen.
Cassidy at this point of the story is slightly altered for the betrayal of his buddies and decided to look for them, probably to tell the story calmly and hammer toes, but the old bluesman suddenly appears and says something like "this is not what I meant to fix things."
The cartoon ends with call to her daughter, Cassidy.
Wow.
Credits. We come to
rating: Cassidy 'na sheets.
Why?
It 'easy to understand:
1) It is based on tons of material already seen and reviewed.
2) The characters are interesting as plaster walls and which seems so terribly stereotypical always known (the same Cassidy is nothing but the hard-hearted, the criminal who was stabbed in the back with the difficult past and blah blah blah ... if the wife is also dead, we did the full).
3) There are pearls Rujana unimaginable levels, with phrases like: "I do not put us with that! It 's a demon jumped out of Hell." Poffarbacco! But yes, we kicked the likelihood and talk like a movie serial B!
4) The ninety pages and change that make up this first issue are full of inconsistencies from the jaw on the shoes and nothing makes me believe that it was only a momentary distraction of the author. Ruju is so, makes things happen.
Cassidy needs to be found by his doctor friend? Perfect. His friend the doctor has found her way to hunt a mountain lion that killed his animals. At night. You are an old man I do not know how many years and go hunting in the woods at night with a fucilino and dog as big as a coconut? If you are Tarzan tick "Yes" if you're a character in a story Ruju tick "NO, BUT BOTH ...".
And there were also others, but it seems quite unnecessary to accept to write one by one. We close here.
Let's talk about 'drawings.
Vincent I have never made a fool, but in this comic I have not borne much. The reason is simple: all people are healthy carriers of eyebrows.
are huge!
This applies both to the aforementioned sopracciglioni blacks Cassidy, and for those of his doctor, who occupy about one third of the face.
seems that all characters have the beetles blacks on his face ready to devour the balls eye.
For the rest, Vincent and I'm not crazy enough. Anyway, even with extra-fine drawings would be able to appreciate this comic.
screenplay Rating: 1 / 5. Evaluation designs
: 2 / 5.
WHAT HAPPENS 'in the next episode?
(Note: the heading "What will happen 'in the next episode?" Is based on the first thing that comes to my head when I close a book or a comic or finish to see a TV series or movie. None of this could have the slightest bearing on reality.)
Cassidy kills most of the bad guys, except the super villain, what will remain strictly last.
In the meantime, will have improved relations with the daughter and sister, and discovers love with his old flame (unless it is not dead, in which case nothing will happen. It is a shame because at least a bit 'of necrophilia would help the story.)
At the end of the eighteen issues of the saga will find that those above her eyes are really big eaters hairy caterpillars Capocci human and will die in agony, while his arch-enemy stuprerà and kill every single member of his family, including goldfish and a centuries-old grandmother, the only one who will appreciate the treatment.
END SPOILER
'm a dirty spendthrift.
