Today I went to the 6th annual animation and comics festival in the Cinemateque in Tel-Aviv.
Ooooh, so many things to see and buy! I unfortunately learned about the Festival very late so I wasn't able to go to any lectures or view any of the Animation, but there were a lot of caricatures, mainly of the political kind (what else, especially in Israel). I think due to this war there is finally a consensus in the country about how crappily the whole situation was handled.
It was so tragically humorous.
And I bought a bunch of stuff; one independent comic, four short stories by a local Israeli artist whose name is Dotan Goldwasser, very talented guy, it's not that avant-garde, but very good. An Israeli action comic steeped in Israeli Machismo, but the plot, characters and the whole presentation is very good, it's called "Uzi, an urban legend" - עוזי, אגדה אורבנית. Yeah, there are Uzi guns in it as well.
X-Men: House of M, finally got it! I've been dying to have for years and now it's mine!
And my favourite "A little Endless fairy tale" by Jill Thompson. To any of you Sandman fans, remember in "Fables and Reflections" there's a story where Cain and Able tell young Daniel a story ("Parliament of Rooks") and one of the stories is about the Young Endless, well here's an entire book!
I'm very, very pleased
