Chapter 15 New Publications at Risk

Li Jie opened the folder provided by Ivey, and the sketches in it did not look as simple as the drafts Ivy had claimed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

It looks like Ivy has put a lot of effort into this new publication she's submitted. Whether it's storyboards, scripts, and character close-ups, it takes a lot of effort.

Because it is a sketch for Li Jie, the boss, the album drawn by Ivey is not the kind of album that is directly oriented to the reader.

In the album, Ivey annotates each large storyboard in the lower left corner, indicating his intentions, although Li Jie does not need these annotations to understand Ivey's meaning.

But it's a process, so Ivey still has to do it.

And there are also a lot of annotations on the whole album, explaining the idea of the whole comic and the narrative structure of the foreshadowing.

Because what Ivey is doing now is equivalent to opening a new comic publication, and it seems that he is still preparing to write it himself.

It's not as simple as being an artist. It's different from some cartoonists in Riman who have been out of draft for a few years.,Only when you don't have money to play mahjong do you come out to draw a few words.,Make some mahjong money.。

As an industrial assembly line, there has never been such a thing as procrastination, because there are several artists and screenwriters under each publication.

In the case of Spider-Man's personal comic book publication, which Ivy is now in charge of, this publication consists of three artists and a screenwriter, and there is also a main writer on it.

Meiman's painting is basically full color, and in the picture performance, it is often like the direction of oil painting, which requires more control of color and light and shadow.

Compared to Japanese comics, the style that relies more on lines is completely two concepts.,There are a lot of dialogue lines in the American comics.,It's different from the Japanese manga that may only have a few hundred words or a thousand words of lines.。

The lines in any sentence of Meiman's words are as many as thousands of words, and sometimes even tens of thousands of words. Moreover, in American comics, lines are the key to driving the plot, and it takes a huge amount of time for screenwriters and artists to arrange and design lines.

The workload of American comics is completely beyond the reach of a single cartoonist.

Especially when it is sold in the form of a weekly magazine. However, due to the large number of artists, in order to maintain the style of the publication, there is a relatively stable consistency.

Therefore, each team will have a chief writer, who is responsible for finalizing the publication and confirming the style, and finally handing it over to the company's editor-in-chief.

The editor-in-chief will conduct the final review and confirm that there is no problem with the comics, and then hand them over to the printing department for publication, printing and selling.

Ivy has now submitted a completely new subject matter, which is completely designed by her, which is obvious if this publication is approved by Li Jie and the project is approved.

Then the main writer of this new independent publication must be Ivey.

Li Jie has no objection to Ivy being the main writer, and this girl's skills prove that she has the ability to do so.

The only thing that made Li Jie hesitate was the new sketch submitted by Ivey, and the subject matter of the new album was a little sensitive, especially during this period.

"Why do you want to draw the story of mutants?" asked Li Jie after going through all the thirty-odd pages of comics.

This is the new story offered by Ivey, which unfolds with a mutant main story, a story about a mutant hero.

"Because mutants have heroes, too, don't they. Ivy replied immediately, she was ready to answer the question.

"During this time, we have also seen through the news and online media that some mutants did lose control and caused some damage, but there were also many mutants who stood up and stopped the losses caused by mutants who lost control. ”

What Ivy said was exactly what the professor and his students had been doing during this time, and after listening to Li Jie's opinion, the professor still organized those who were quite capable of fighting in the school to form a mutant team.

They haven't called out the X-Men yet, but they've done a lot of things in the meantime.

Some mutants get out of control and cause chain damage, and even cause great disasters.

There are a lot of emergencies here, and you can't expect the Night's Watch or S.H.I.E.L.D. to keep an eye on mutants all day.

And the professor seems to have put a lot of effort into this, at least every time something happens to a mutant, he always sends his students out as soon as possible.

He has served as a firefighter on various occasions, and has also saved the lives of many ordinary people.

I have to say that there are still benefits to this, at least those who are saved by them have less bad feelings towards mutants, and their families will also have less hatred for mutants.

At the very least, as long as the losses from those out-of-control events are manageable, then this matter is quite positive.

"So I think we can change the story of the mutant hero into a comic book as well, and launch a whole new story about the mutant!" Ivy seems to be positive about it.

Li Jie didn't see that this little girl was still an ambitious person.

"I'm not very opposed to this, but it's risky to publish mutants, and you must know that the evaluation of mutants in the market is not very good. "What Li Jie said is a fact.

Especially after Stark's new energy factory was attacked, there was an argument that mutants hindered the progress of human society.

Anyway, fanning the flames and spreading gossip are almost common to people.

"That's why we're doing this, aren't we drawing caricatures of these heroes just to spread their faith?" Ivey's tone was a little impassioned.

"Jason remember what you wrote in the inaugural issue, isn't the spirit of the Night's Watch what the heroes want to spread to us? ”

"Mutants who do bad things should be punished, but mutants who do good things should also be praised. Only in this way can everyone understand that mutants are the same as normal people. ”

"There is good and evil in any population, and the whole population cannot be discriminated against because of individual cases. ”

Li Jie felt that this little girl's spirit was a little too excited and excited, as if she was particularly concerned about the affairs of mutants.

Although he had some doubts about Ivy in his heart, and even had some guesses, Li Jie did not resort to the speculation in his heart, after all, there are some things that the parties don't want to say, and others better not ask. And Ivey also looks like a harmless girl.

"I'm sorry, I was a little excited. Ivy also noticed that his tone was a little too excited.

"It doesn't matter, everyone who is ambitious and wants to put their great ideals into reality is like this, and I am no exception. Li Jie shook his head, saying that he understood Ive's thoughts.

"So will this publication be approved?" asked Ivey, a little apprehensive.

"I need to talk to investors about specific matters. Although Li Jie is the legal person of this company, as well as the boss. "And we also need to get copyright authorization for these variants of vigilantes. ”

But to know the source of the company's funding, one is the five million dollars invested in the night watch, and the other is the five million dollars invested by Harry himself.

Although everyone is in charge of the use of this money, they trust him very much.

But it is precisely because of this trust that Li Jie has become more cautious, and there is no doubt that the publication of the publication about mutants will definitely cause controversy in society.

It is unclear how much of an impact it will have on the company, and whether it should be done must be approved by everyone.

And if you really want to draw the story of mutants, then you have to get the permission of Charles Xavier and his students. (To be continued.) )
