'Paul is dead' gets the graphic novel treatment


Fifty years ago, a newspaper ran a story claiming that Paul McCartney had been killed in a car crash and was replaced by a double who looks, sings, and writes almost exactly like him. The rumor spread like wildfire and, by late October 1969, Macca was forced to come out of seclusion at his Scottish farm to deny the story.

Paul Is Dead: When The Beatles Lost McCartney is an upcoming graphic novel that tells a story behind the weirdest and most famous of all music conspiracy theories. Published by Image Comics, the 128 page-book will be released on April 28, 2020. I really like the cover art. As physical books become niche products, design and packaging will matter more and more.

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

It’s now been fifty-eight years since Walt Disney died of lung cancer, and as a great way to remember his legacy is watch this short film he did in 1929. It’s truly impressive, and you can still see the impact he made on animation today.
