Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #99

The Minstrel, Q-boy, & Muffina Winters On Beef (Censored)

ccc-86-theminstrelqboymuffytemplate

Beef really has lead to some great music.  That’s pretty much undeniable. Battling and dissing is just part of rap.  Rap is more like a sport than other forms of music, and sometimes it’s a blood sport. People want to be good singers or great singers, and if someone wants to be the best singer it isn’t by actually proving you’re better by humiliating the competition.  Singers might not like each other and they might go at each other in a VERY subliminal way, but it’s nothing like a rap battle.

But you know what’s weird? John Lennon made a diss track. A guy all about peace and love made diss track, and he goes in on Paul McCartney.

Tomorrow is our 100th Conversation special! I’ll just say it’s going to be crazy and leave it at that… Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Fair warning, if you have no interest in or don’t like rap you’re not like this week.  Just check back in next week and more than likely we’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programing of thinly veiled allusions to  whatever “Marvel” or “DC” is doing (no promises though).

Still here? Cool. Have you ever met someone that you never would think was into rap? It’s always a fun surprise.

Oh and yeah this weeks 100th “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” comic is pretty rap related. Tomorrow The Minstrel, and Q-boy return with Muffina Winters to talk about beef. Hers with Special-Girl specifically. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #95

The Minstrel, Pussy Whip, & The Good Knight On Seeing Other People (Censored)

ccc-95-theminstrelpussywhipandthegoodknightc

So if you stay up on news and stuff you might have heard about a story where Chris Brown allegedly pulled a gun on some chick at his house.  He says she was trying to steal from him and he didn’t pull a gun or was asleep the whole time or something. It also turns out the chick is pretty shady. Looks like a story where no one is the “good guy” but who knows.  Oh also Ray J was there.

With that out of the way, this whole week will feature these 3 talking about The Good Knight and Pussy Whip’s relationship.  There are actually 4 comics that proceed this that will be available whenever I start a Patreon and or when I start collecting these comics into books.

Tomorrow these 3 discuss some baby mama drama. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #60 An Outlaw’s Prayer For Vengence (Censored)

The History Of Comics With Q-boy #60 An Outlaw’s Prayer For Vengence (Censored)

qbs60c

This comic is based on the work of Robert Crumb and Bobby Cakes is based on him. Robert Crumb is certainly a controversial figure, but he is undeniably a great artist.  He gained his fame mainly during the late 60’s and 70’s in the underground comics scene. The documentary about him from 1994 “Crumb” is really worth seeing if you haven’t.

The whole idea of having Q-boy Comics in this story have “7 great artists” and the whole Q-boy Comics being like “Deathrow” started with the idea of having Robert Crumb be like 2pac.  It was such a weird idea that I went with it.  Now let’s explain the panels:

  • Panel 1 is based on a panel from Crumb’s comic “My Troubles With Women” and the part in the thought bubble is based on a panel from another of his comics “The Adventures Of R. Crumb Himself” which you can check out here http://qr.net/bYtpa & here http://qr.net/bYtp2
  • Panel 2 is based on another panel from “My Troubles With Women” and a panel from another comic he did “Motor City” #2 which you can see here http://qr.net/bYtrY & here http://qr.net/bYttc
  • Panel 3 is based on a panel from a story Crumb did for “El Perfecto Comics”. The stuff in the thought balloon is based on a panel from his project from 2009 “The Book Of Genesis Illustrated” and one of the things he’s most famous for “Keep On Truckin’” a one page comic from “Zap Comix” #1 which you can check out here http://qr.net/bYtvg , here http://qr.net/bYtys , and here http://qr.net/bYtAb
  • Panel 4 is based on an unpublished cover for “Hulp Comics” (that I couldn’t do justice to the crosshatching in) which you can check out here http://qr.net/bYtEu
  • Panel 5 is based on a drawing of “Lightin’ Hopkins” from “R. Crumb’s Heroes Of Blues, Jazz, & Country” which you check out here http://qr.net/bYtCk
  • Panel 6 is based on a drawing of Crumb himself and David Zane Mairowitz from “R. Crumb’s Kafka” which you can check out here http://qr.net/bYtGf

Next time we continue with Bobby Cakes as he works with Q-boy Comics. Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
