Tamra Bonvillain is considered one of many main comedian guide colourists within the comics business as we speak. Not that you just’d understand it from the Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur TV present.
Tamra Bonvillain is considered one of many main comedian guide colourists within the comics business as we speak.
Last night she wrote on Twitter, “I colored every single issue of a comic that a new show is based on, and I get to watch on social media as my collaborators attend the premiere that I had no idea was even happening, and see them get thanks in the credits while I’m ignored” including “Almost 50 issues, btw.”
Well, sure, that may be Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur, of which Tamra Bonvillain colored forty-seven points. And which has lately been changed into a cartoon. And which held a premiere occasion final month. Tamra does emphasise “I’m not upset at the people I worked with, just to be clear.”
The purple carpet premiere was held on the 4th of February in Los Angeles, the place “Stars White, Tatasciore, Barer, Gary Anthony Williams, Ian Alexander, Josh Keaton, and Tajinae Turner joined executive producer (and the voice of The Beyonder) Laurence Fishburne, Loter, Clouden, Flynn, executive music producer Raphael Saadiq, and co-creators Amy Reeder and Natacha Bustos for a roaring night celebrating the groundbreaking series.”
The collection airs on Disney+ and the primary episode will be seen in full on YouTube. The finish credit…
…okay, they’re someplace right here…
Okay zoom in additional…
Okay, it is the usual “special thanks” to the creators of the comedian collection being tailored, writers Brandon Montclare and Amy Reeder, and artist Natacha Bustos, with Jack Kirby for the unique characters. Naturally deserved. But it’s notable that, the cartoon displays not simply the characters and the road artwork of the comedian guide collection, but in addition the selection of pallette, deep reds, blues, purples, with yellow bursts, and the colouring model of the comedian, laborious color “cel-shading” traces, a felt-tip pen look, stylistic selections that the rest by the collection as the road artists modified, unifying the guide collectively – and that was all Tamra Bonvillain. It is a particular attraction of the comedian guide – and of the cartoon. So you may see how the shortage of recognition in any method.
Reilly Brown replied “There are a lot of names in those credits too. Taking the complete credits from the comics wouldn’t kill them.”
Doc Shaner added “Jeez that sucks. I’m sorry, Tamra.”
Tony Lee commented “What happened to Tamra here is UTTER BULLSHIT. If you’re a publisher or creative team that sees this happen on a project you create, you CALL IT OUT, you don’t sit at a Premiere and keep quiet. Comics should be better.”
Here’s the primary episode of the present so you may verify for your self.
