- By appropriating and subverting Tintin creator Hergé’s
classic “clear line” style, Joost Swarte revitalized European
alternative comics in the 1970s with a series of satirical, musically elegant,
supremely beautifully drawn short stories — often featuring his innocent,
magnificently-quiffed Jopo de Pojo, or his orotund scientist character,
Anton Makassar. Under Swarte’s own exacting supervision, Is That All
There Is? will collect virtually all of his alternative comics work from
1972 to date, including the Raw magazine stories that brought him fame
among American comics aficionados in the 1980s. Especially great pains will be
taken to match Swarte’s superb coloring, which includes stories executed
in watercolor, comics printed in retro duotones, fiendishly clever use of
Zip-a-Tone screens, and much more. (There’s even a story about how to
color comics art using those screens, with Makassar as the teacher.) Other
noteworthy stories include Swarte’s take on an episode from
Hergé’s early days, a Fats Domino story, a tribute to the legendary
“Upside-Downs” strip, and a story titled simply “Modern
Art.”
