COME LOOK AND BE TEASED : THE PROFESSOR : A HOMAGE TO PETER CUSHING

ONCE IN A WHILE someone comes up with a very good concept in the comic world. And 'THE PROFESSOR' falls very snugly into that category. Just a few days ago, I was contacted by an associate who thought 'THE PROFESSOR' would be of interest to us all. I must be honest, during the course of a few months, it is not unusual for us to receive several emails or posts about 'Cushing-connected or themed' projects. But, from the go this one got my interest.

 

 

I HAVE TO BE HONEST and admit, I am not a collector of comics and I can't remember the last time, I actual read a comic of any kind!  But this is one I really want to read. I have included several of the 'TEASERS' here for your enjoyment.... and they DO manage to perform their function very well..Just a glance at any one, will I am sure, get you to view the next. The question hangs over each one, 'Wow, what does that mean? OR 'What happened next?' 

NOW OF COURSE we are primed to a certain extent here, we are lovers of Cushing's work and the roles he played, so the artwork panels and teasers, are very more-ish and have our interest. BUT look at that art work, interesting isn't it? And again, each image leaves us with a ....what does all this mean? We are not being let in on the secret, WE have to wait too......!

 

'THE PROFESSOR' is the beautiful creation of Italian writer, ANDREA CORBETTA and all the people you see below... Corbetta calls it 'An homage to Peter Cushing'. The first issue of 'THE PROFESSOR' arrives in SEPTEMBER 2016. So, not that long to wait. And rest assured, we WILL be waiting !

VINTAGE AND RARE : PETER CUSHING PAINTS AT HOME

Cushing Hobbies: It didn't matter where Peter Cushing was in the world, in the city, a studio, the jungle or in the middle of a desert, he always took brushes, paper and paints. At times when sitting out a long prep on a shoot and his brushes and paints were not to hand, he would sketch on the cover of his script... he was a man who had to create. Here's an early photograph, probably around 1946 - 48, just before or after the shooting of Olivier's Hamlet ... I wonder what's on that canvas ?
