“I’m not aware that I talked about ‘comics being separate from art’ - that appears to be fiction on your part.”

Here ’tis:

“it seems some people take comics just as seriously as some people take art.”

To be specific:

1/ Your statement: “The image is credited to an artist called Paul Chapman who is lavishly praised on the website for his work”. You use the quote from CoCA’s website “Chapman rocks, his wit cutting and sense of image, brilliant, yet his aesthetics never try too hard.” This quote is for another work. I have the newspaper jpg of this review - I should know.
CoCA presents this review for my Superboy print for their own ends -to sell the work. My initial posting was to correct their misinformation, which you have presented as fact. Do you always believe everything on the web?

2/ Your statement “The main problem with this pretentious nonsense is that the idea isn’t his, the humor isn’t his, and the image isn’t his”.

As I stated just previously - the small ‘snippet’ image you have used at the beginning of this post does not show the entire work: You indeed have never seen it - but this is irrelevant as you have extrapolated what you wanted from this ’snippet.’ It fits into your preconceptions about artists that use comic book images. I have never passed this print off as my own. Its not even on my website as I don’t consider it to be mine.

Discussion about appropriation of comic art is a valid one - My one off print paid homage to both artist like Warhol but also to the amazing artist’s who initial drew them.

“But this is the joy of the net; things out of context can get further out of context”!

Yes what you copied in the first place was incorrect.

P.S I’m not aware that I talked about ‘comics being separate from art’ - that appears to be fiction on your part. Indeed I have a great appreciation of the artists who did these comics; hence my using this imagery for a ‘one off’ work.
My personal favorites being early Uncanny Men, & a comic called ‘Mr X’;

Also with the small image you obtained from CoCA’s website - it only shows a small section of my print- not how used it . I don’t mind people not liking my artwork, or being critical: but you should at least see the entire work instead of judging on small image on a website that contains wrong information.
