Chapter 316: Superhero Comics Three or Two Things
In fact, there are a lot of superheroes without superpowers in the superhero series of the United States, such as the rich second-generation Green Arrow with superb archery, the bloody retired police sanctioner, etc., although it is not much, it is not less.
Of course, Iron Man and Green Hornet are also ordinary people, but their equipment, especially Iron Man's equipment, is completely a bug. But if you want to say who is the most famous mortal superhero, it is definitely Batman!
Zhang Chen added: "I always feel that superheroes without superpowers are a little unreasonable, but I can't say where they are unreasonable. ”
Su Shichen smiled, completely comprehending, and said: "Superheroes must highlight the feeling of turning the tide in times of crisis, it is difficult to achieve this effect without superpowers." And a mortal without superpowers to save shijie is unreal after all, Zhang Chen, isn't your unreasonable unreasonableness in this? ”
"Well, that's it." Zhang Chen is not good at words, Su Shichen expressed what he wanted to say very well, the villain is an ordinary person, but superheroes, how can the protagonist always be an ordinary person?
"I won't talk about this first, I'll talk about my jihua first." Su Shichen said, "The comic we will cooperate with next is not just to open up the comic market, we also want to make this superhero series the most popular comic series in the United States." ”
I really dare to let this go, but Su Shichen also feels that it is not without a purpose. You must know that in the previous life, the comics of superheroes accounted for 70% of the comic sales list of the Earth Rice Country. And the superhero series he drew is to integrate all the famous and interesting superheroes, in this case, it is not difficult to achieve the standard that Su Shichen wants.
Su Shichen's current ambition is to create two sets that will never be surpassed. One of them is the Warcraft series, the self-created language and the huge background of Warcraft, which is to create a fantasy novel series that can never be surpassed, so that decades later, or even a hundred years later, when people mention fantasy novels, the first thing that comes to mind is his Warcraft series.
The second is the superhero series that Su Shichen and Zhang Chen are now preparing to draw together. Su Shichen doesn't believe it, with Spider-Man, Iron Man, Superman, Batman, etc., the hottest superheroes on the earth joining, the sales and influence of this comic will only be an unsurpassable peak in the United States comic industry.
In fact. Even if Su Shichen stops writing now, he can eat for a lifetime with the Warcraft series and this superhero series, which is not an exaggeration at all.
"Flood Wilderness Series" is a very haode example. The originator of the flood flow book, which frames a complete flood background, no one can break it in this aspect, although there are only five books in the flood series. The revised version has a total of 700,000 words. It's a little short, but there have been three versions in the past four years, what hardcover edition, collector's edition, and remastered version, the key problem is that these versions are selling well.
According to the current popularity, it is no problem to publish the "Flood Series" every three to five years, and the sales of books and the high price of the model can bring Su Shichen tens of millions of dollars in income every year.
The Flood Wilderness series is still only a series of one country in China, and it is not as international as the Warcraft series of books and superhero comics. One can imagine how much of a benefit these two series will have.
Think of the earth. Rowling became the richest woman in Britain with the Harry Potter series, and the Warcraft series is not bad compared to the superhero series.
"A comic book series? Master Su, do you mean to say that this Batman is just one of the main characters? Zhang Chen seemed to understand a little.
"Yes, there will probably be ten superheroes and ten villains in the first issue, Batman is just one of the protagonists, and this mortal superhero Batman is strong in intelligence and intelligence analysis, and he also has a certain fighting ability, which can act as a military advisor to this righteous superhero alliance punisher alliance." There is nothing wrong with this, the character of Batman is from "Detective Comics", that is, to use his brain to eat, and excellent IQ is a must.
Su Shichen continued: "Ten superheroes, there are aliens, there are exotic visitors, of course, more of us Shijie people, also among these superheroes, there are people engaged in various professions, there are all kinds of different personalities, there are debauched rich second generations, there are also scientists with outstanding wisdom, and there are even poor dicks who have adventures, so all-encompassing, each character has its own characteristics, so it is very necessary for a mortal superhero like Batman to exist." ”
Hearing Su Shichen say this, Zhang Chen couldn't help nodding again and again, as if eating something would make it taste greasy just by eating something, and the combination of meat and vegetables was full of color, flavor and flavor. And superheroes need this genre.
However, a concern rose in Zhang Chen's heart: "Wouldn't it be too crowded to tell the stories of ten superheroes and ten villains in one comic?" ”
In fact, Su Shichen's idea is not only like this, he is also ready to throw out another setting when this superhero comic is halfway through the series, that is, a third-party shili, which can definitely surprise comic fans, of course, some superheroes outside the establishment are also necessary, such as The Shining, such as Ghost Rider......
Su Shichen also took into account the problem that Zhang Chen was worried about: "It is not necessary to tell the life experiences of these ten superheroes or ten villains, these can be explained in the follow-up serialization, and what we want to do in the first book is to completely highlight the characteristics of these superheroes and villains." ”
"The villain too?"
"Actually, comics are like writing novels, if the protagonist defeats a beggar, will you have the pleasure?" Su Shichen asked rhetorically.
"Naturally not." Zhang Chen answered as he should.
"Therefore, the strength of the villain is necessary to highlight the protagonist, and it is also a kind of jishu to portray the villain well, and sometimes it is entirely possible for a haode villain to be more attractive than the protagonist."
Drawing a caricature is also not an easy task, especially with such a person to describe. And another person has to draw this description just by words. Because this time was in a hurry, Su Shichen didn't have time to write down the plot, only dictated. Fortunately, this is not the first time that the two have cooperated, although Zhang Chen is not good at words, his comprehension is also good, and he can reflect what Su Shichen wants to express.
The two of them bent over like this, lying on the table, their two heads together, and when I looked at this picture from behind, I thought they were doing it. The speed of painting Zhang Chen is quite amazing, and superheroes are born one by one under Zhang Chen's pen. I don't know how long it took, Su Shichen's arm felt a pain, and he discussed it too vigorously. Forget about the injury on his arm, how can he stand it for a long time.
When the hand moved, the pain became more obvious, like the feeling of a piece of meat being torn off. Although subconsciously hold back not to howl. But he still didn't hold back and gasped, and his face wrinkled together.
"Master Su, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, Zhang Chen, you just continue to draw as I just said, and I'll go to the bathroom first."
Leaving the studio, I went to the toilet, rolled up my sleeves and looked at it, relieved. It just hurts, but luckily the wound didn't crack. However, a little blood was printed, washed with water, and a piece of white paper was taken out of his pocket and placed on the wound, and then he slowly rolled down his sleeve and returned to the studio.
"Almost, the image settings of the ten superheroes have been completed, Master Su, do you see if there is anything that needs to be modified?" After taking Zhang Chen's handover, the first impression was good, this painter Su Shichen couldn't catch up, he had a specialization, and he couldn't afford to be hurt if he only studied a professional course for ten days.
But after browsing a few more photos, Su Shichen felt a little awkward.
"What's wrong, there's a problem?" Seeing Su Shichen's brows, Zhang Chen's heart couldn't help but tighten, "Is it because I haven't drawn anything in place?" ”
"No, Zhang Chen, you completely drew all my requirements, but I always feel a little awkward, and this feeling is still indescribable." Su Shichen is not simply comforting Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen's painting work is not to mention in Huaxia, even if it is counted as an island country, there are not many people who surpass Zhang Chen in painting. And in the past three years, Zhang Chen's painting style and skills have become more proficient, but when he saw this painting, Su Shichen always had an indescribable feeling.
"I also feel that something is wrong with this, as if it is different from the United States comics." One is the author of these sketches, the other is the person who conceived them, and both of them feel that something is wrong, but they can't tell what is wrong for a while.
The two of them stared at the sketch, it was looking back and forth, and after looking at it for a long time, Su Shichen suddenly felt as if he had pierced a layer of window paper, thinking of what the problem was.
"I know, I know Weishenme, we're both going to feel awkward."
"Because of Weishenme?" Zhang Chen asked urgently.
"The style of painting is because of the style of painting!" Su Shichen dialed it a little, and Zhang Chen immediately understood.
There is a clear difference between the painting style of the United States and the island country.,The island country comics are all beautiful, except for the fixed roles, from the protagonist to the villain and even the supporting role, there is no one who is not handsome.,But the United States comics are different.,It's mainly realistic.,Some are sloppy.,There are also ordinary appearances.。
Zhang Chen naturally took the island route, so the two of them looked so awkward, and began to revise it when they found the reason.
"Zhang Chen, can you handle this style of painting?"
"I've tried a few times before, but I haven't tried it for several years." Zhang Chen said firmly, "I can get it back, but the progress will be slower." ”
"That's okay, my family urged me to go back to dinner, and I'll send it to my email when it's changed."
"No problem."
"Remember to eat!" Su Shichen reminded, Zhang Chen replied without raising his head, okay, it is estimated that this reminder is useless.
took a taxi home, about in the afternoon, after dinner, it was about half an hour, Zhang Chen called and said that the character had been sent.
"This is really in line with Zhang Chen's style, when it comes to fighting, I am really not Zhang Chen's opponent." I applied to my mother Wei Xin for an hour of Internet time, and when I went to the study to open the computer, the IQ mailbox naturally had to wait for IQ, but as soon as I boarded the IQ, I saw Xiao Xuehua's message.
Su Shichen gritted his teeth, this little snowflake was embarrassed to leave him a message and die.
clicked on, and after reading the message, Su Shichen smiled angrily......
ps: I saw the second more wood! Don't say that the kitten is a more begging for a monthly pass, then weishenme so late, because the night gives me the kitten black eyes, how can I code words during the day? (To be continued......)
