Niko Henrichon on North American Genre Comics
:: Posted by Bryan @ 3/19/2007 12:03:00 AM Quebec cartoonist (Pride of Baghdad) Niko Henrichon talks to Newsarama about his venture into X-Men territory and the differences between comics in France and North America:
"In American comics, for instance, most of the comics are superheroes or close variations of superheroes. It's not that I dislike the genre but I wish there was more room for the other genres. In Europe, you can find a broader range of genre and they all sell very well. So that's one advantage in Europe.
On the other hand, I find the actual American market being more dynamic these days. In the sense that many great books were published during the last years. Writers like Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, BKV and many others make the comic world very lively." Labels: floppies, people, Quebec, U.S. superhero franchises
