Subject: [PotaDG] The Art of George Tuska advert in Scrolls #10

I was just looking through the latest (excellent) issue of Simian Scrolls (#10) last night and something struck me as a little odd.

On page 43 there is a full page advert for a new book- The Art of George Tuska.

Now what puzzles me is that there is an "exclusive Apes sketch by the man himself" but to me this sketch just does not look like the work of Tuska, it just doesn't look good enough to be done by him in my opinion. I'm probably wrong (it happens!) he was probably in a rush or something but I was wondering if any of the 'Scrolls' people could let us know the story behind this "exclusive" sketch? It would be much appreciated.

 

For those of you who don't have this issue of scrolls I have uploaded a scan of the page to the files section:

Yes, I agree.

 

With Taylor there are 2 Taylors - one astro and one captive.

 

So a quick shuffle.......put Astro Taylor in the suspended animation chamber and wild Taylor in a 2-pack with Nova and they can the cart I mentioned.

There'd be some of the "Sideshow syndrome" involved here, because you'd be duplicating some... With Taylor, you'd almost have to have two versions (bearded and unbearded) even if they'd go the interchangeable route... While I don't mind that idea, in his case it would almost be a neccessity...

-- If they really want to go with blind packaging why can't they make
the packs double packs. Have one of the figures one of the main
characters (Taylor, Zaius etc.) so you can pick who you want and
include another figure, like a gorilla soldier or a generic chimp etc.
that is the 'blind' figure that way everyone is happy!

Yes T it is the new comic (as opposed to the new comic STRIP).

 

The "weekly" strip is WITHIN.

 

The 22 page comic (part 1 of 3 x 22 page parts) is "Going Home" and it isset in the TV Show Universe.

 

"Going Home" is intended to take the TV Show to a place we all want it to get - beyond the repetitive catch and chase stories and exploring ape culture.

Whew! I spent all morning uploading many many pics of POTA items both fom my
collection and others that I'm still looking for on the Planet of the Collecting Yahoo
Group. Not sure who started that but there was all this empty space over there so I
thought I'd fill it! Here's the address:

http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/planetoftheapescollecting/?yguid=126620008

You have to join to get in. The pics are all under Photos and some have subalbums
so have fun exploring! Will do more when I get time. Soon I'm going to post a list of
stuff I'm looking for........

And for all my work this morning , I think Michael and Whitty should release the new
Going Home pages....to me anyway!!! HArharhahhhahhrrrrrr...............

Enjoy!

-- Thanks Alan. I also thought about the age thing as well but
dismissed it as the picture is not 'shaky' or anything like that, just
bad compared to what I know Tuska is/was capable of. Like I mentioned
earlier he still seems to be able to do perfectly good circles and
curves!

I've been busy lately, and haven't had much time to check out my
Yahoo Groups -- and, man, I'm still not too thrilled about
Yahoo's "new way"... it sorta makes me want to tolchock them in their
yarblockos, the way Alex (your humble narrator) did to Dim & Pete
when they tried to set up their "new way"...

Is it just me, or is it retarded to have to scroll UP in order to
read each consecutive post in the 'expanded' form? And, it's
impossible in that mode to click on each individual post (from the 30
or so in each chunk of 'expanded' series posts), in order to reply to
that specific post. I like the old format better. Yahoo is almost as
worthless as Fox is.

Put me down for more of the POTA comix, by the way. And, if I may say
(to Mike, especially, since he's been the most vocal regarding
this)... If I haven't been chiming every so often to make a comment
about the as-yet-unfolding plotline of "WITHIN", it's because I'd
prefer to wait until the entire story is available, and THEN make
comments about it. When I finally got the complete 2-issue "BEWARE
THE BEAST" comic, I posted an effusive entry here lauding it for its
high quality, etc etc etc. Like everybody else, I'm wondering
how "WITHIN" is gonna pan out -- what with all the plot twists &
revelations and all that -- but I'm not *into* coughing up a bit of
discussion about something that is (as yet) still incomplete. It'd be
a bit like watching an episode of the TV show in 5-minute chunks,
without knowing how the story ends, and trying to have a meaningful
conversation about it; I'd rather watch a complete episode and THEN
discuss it in its entirety. Same goes for the comix. Others may dig
the idea of speculating about some quizzical aspect of the comic (is
that Milo? etc), and that's all fine and dandy, but it just isn't my
bag. Well, not unless there's some sort of contest going on, with the
potential to win prizes ;)

I think it's safe to say that most of us POTA fans will -- in time --
express their FULL appreciation for the COMPLETE version of the comic
in question (as I did for "BEWARE THE BEAST"). I can understand the
frustration you (Mike & Neil) must feel regarding the paucity of
comments/input regarding this work-in-progress, but -- and I hope
this doesn't sound mean-spirited, 'cuz it isn't meant to be -- it
kinda sounds like... well... like whining.

On any average month, this DG site has HUNDREDS of posts. Many of
them, sure, are inconsequential ones (by that I mean that they
represent one-sentence quickie responses or ripostes to previous
posts). But in sheer quantity, this site gets plenty of traffic. I'm
not complaining, but my POTA PHENOMENON site ain't gettin' anywhere
NEAR that volume -- not that I'm actively trying to generate it.

One solution? Perhaps, rather than doling out "WITHIN" in strip-by-
strip installments (or even in single page installments), why not
complete the thing and offer it -- SIGHT UNSEEN -- for a price to
those willing to order it, printed all spiffy like "BEWARE THE BEAST"
was...

... and THEN solicit the DG members to offer up some chat about it.
Chances are, enough people here WILL be willing to buy/order it (and
I'm guessing it's predominantly because Neil's artwork is so damn top-
notch), and subsequently WILL ALSO be more-than-willing to post
comments here about it.

At any rate, I'll be more than happy to post an interminably lengthy
message to this board about that COMPLETED version of the comic. But,
not knowing how it's gonna turn out, I don't want to put the cart
before the horse, so to speak.

Keep on crankin' out those pages, in the meantime. But do it because
you dig POTA and would do it even if NOBODY ELSE gave a rat's ass. If
it's worth doing, then it's worth doing it even if you garner neither
praise nor recognition -- nor awareness-of-the-fact.

Ciao for now...

Patrick

Not only that but he was The Book Worm in the live action series.

Maybe Tuska didn't have time to do the eyes and Nancy drew them. - - -

I hope I'm wrong Jeff but this really looks like a fake.

 

As I said about the fake TV Shows issue of Scrolls (#7?), that's fine if you reveal SOMEWHERE that it is a fake.

 

However if you go and mislead people for the hell of it, you run the risk of alienating them and making people really ponder your intentions.

 

I consider myself a huge POTA fan and an ambassador for the current fan-driven community, but the effect of that fake Scrolls (followed by an issue that had very little to do with POTA OR the fans - more a general comic book fan issue) has left me not even bothering to seek another issue of Scrolls.  Trust issues.

 

Which brings me to ask - how might I fill that void by puchasing a NEW Ape Chronicles?  Do you have a date guys?  Jef, could you put on 100 ponds and float in a swimming pool holding the issue when it is released?  ;)

  Yeah, it turns out Tuska's been dead since 1998. Gotcha! Neil drew it. Or maybe Nancy drew it. - - - Jeff

It is important - what the hell is going on?

 

Is this another Scrolls "joke" or something?

-- I hate to keep banging on about this but if it was just a quick
sketch I don't understand why it doesn't look like Tuska's style. I
know that if I do a quick sketch it still looks like mine, to me this
just looks so unlike his work.
It probably is just his age or something, I don't know, it's probably
not that important anyway.

Fake Scrolls eh? 

Sounds like the DeVinci Code.

Now as the "ambassador" will

you be setting up a POTA

table at the conventions in

your country?  I hope so.

Apemania can't even represent

themselves.  Their too busy

playing pirate.

  To be honest, I'm working on "Chronicles". I'm hoping to get this stuff out soon (finally). I hope it's worth all the research. - - - Jeff

 

  Jeff lies! He'll never finish those! He just wants to party! - - - Bad Jeff

 

  You keep out of this! Yes I will finish it. - - - Jeff

 

  When? In 2050? You're a loser and you know it. - - - Bad Jeff

 

  How dare you, sir! I could finish it in 10 minutes if I wanted. But I'd rather do a good job. - - - Jeff

 

  You're pathetic. And no one likes you. - - - Bad Jeff

 

  Yes they do! They will when I finish these. That's why they have to be the best they can be. The nicest and polishest they can, right Precious? - - - Jeff

  What? No. That's ridiculous. Don't say things like that. - - - Jeff
