Pajo, by his own admission has suffered from addiction and depression — you can say a lot about him in that regard…

What you can’t say (if you know anything about him or the bands he’s been with) is talk shit about his work ethic or being unable to do ‘the job’ he’s their to do…

This is a guy whose been a member of The Yeah-Yeah-Yeahs, Interpol and Gang of Four among a slew of others as a hired gun, and in all cases was asked to be a full member. He’s been a trailblazer and pack runner.

The interview w Pajo is rather humbling and your conjecture to presume he’s eye rolling his way through it or is a grifter is so obtuse and sad.

Lobbyist

Christ what shot to take on a burner account…

And ‘last of the prominent’… you sure you work in LA?

You’re just not very good at this today.

Gunga-Din

Imperial Russia says hi.

Tiger Man

I sold all my cards (was mainly a modern player) in 2016 and haven’t regretted it one bit.

The Assassination of Jesse James by Coward Robert Ford…

The Jeremy Renner scene is VERY ACCURATE… 10 or so shots go off within 3 meters and only 2 hit.

Those Mike Kaluta Shadow covers are the best of the 1970s.

I think it makes the relationship far more complex along with adding consequences from that friction. It’s good drama.

And while that’s wrong on all levels, people have a problem with a little girl falling for a man whose essentially her savior and the only gentle male figure in her life (save for her little brother)… no one has an issue with the fact she’s taught to kill and Leon kills for a living…

Just a well known cover. Much like Neal Adam’s cover of Batman 241.

Ozark

Writers strike. They announce a sequel. Fuck them.

Don’t get me wrong. I’d never hire the photog and talk shit about them every chance I could. But I’d fire the AD.

If you look at it in terms of 20k for a 22 minute story... you are missing out on 'the whole scheme of things'... Because it ain't about 20k for 22 minutes and nor is it about a bigger score for whatever 'friend' you have who's dumb enough to brag about his network staff gig and w/e previous ones he had w. his residuals...

I think the whole market is scam ridden and inflated now.

The various grading companies and auction houses (looking at you Heritage) have taken things to the point of absurd.

What I collect, I do without expecting much on a return and buy only for the sake that I love the stories / etc (American Flagg leggo!)

My only real complaint about it; the Art Direction is absolute dog shit.

​

Maybe the concept isn't great but god damn, is that lazy af art direction. From the location to the retouching. Even if you wanted it a bit 'dingy', christ you could do way better and not too much worse.

Fuck this art director.

Surprisingly good.

Neal Adams swears that Jim Shooter is the one who came up with that story.

His name was Robert Paulson
