Will it make my t-shirt?

[Purple Stickpin]

Not to mention it's the absolute worst beer ever made. Ever.

 

[chronic]

Worse than Coors? Really?

 

[Purple Stickpin]

Well, it's just my opinion, of course, but Coors never bothered me so much (well, Coors Light is pretty bad). But regular Coors is rather palitable in certain circumstances. I've never been able to drink any Budweiser product without developing a massive headache within about 20 minutes. Quit that a long time ago.

oh c'mon fellas, lets stick to the subject. who's gonna buy the fucking shirt! huh?

 

[Gerard K H Love]

Could you do a shirt that looks like a Becks beer label that says Bukowski?

 

[plasteredpoet]

Yes, I was trying to hide out by having myself declared dead, but you're too smart for that.

And, yeah, I can pretty much put anything on a t shirt you want.



I'm about to start working with Rick Veitch. He illustrated Alan Moore's "Swamp Thing" for D.C. way back in the day and is currently doing "Army@Love" for D.C.

He is also working with a poet named Money, illustrating his poetry for independent release.

In light of R. Crumb's take on Buk's writing, does anyone think any of Buk's other stories lend themselves well to graphic novelization?

Bob Burden has been working with me as well and may be interested in a project.

Oh yes, many of them could be turned into comic book stories, if not all of them. Schultheiss made two albums full some years ago.

Two french comic albums based on Bukowski's work, wow ! I didn't know them ! Thanks Bukfan, I'll try to grab them.

They're not exactly "french". The original is from - guess where - germany!
But I must admit: I don't like the drawings of Schultheiss very much. It just isn't my style in comic books.
Hm, but then - I didn't like 'Crazy Love' either, but everyone else seems to do.

 

[Ambreen]

Ah ok ! The name undoubtedly looks german but I thought it was perhaps a pseudo.

His full name is Mathias Schultheiss.
Have just looked up some info on him.
Must admit, I like the pieces by him, that are on this page, at least a little.
Still I dislike his Bukowski-comics. (They are b/w - not colored like the covers - and what I especially dislike is the inking. I'm sure, if they'd be colored, I might like them.)

 

[Ambreen]

Thank you Roni. :)

Here's the cover of the other comic book (Danish version):

The cover illustrations aren't bad but I'm not too impressed with the panels. Not surprisingly these remind me of Heavy Metal. It would be interesting to see Moebius, Corben or even William Stout's take on the source material.
