GET A LIFE!
SEVENTEEN FACES OF DARKNESS (2)
PREV (PART 1) << PAGE 1 > NEXT
Art by Darko Bogdanov
Story & lettering by Franco Villa
Edits by Cristian Di Biase & Luca Salvadei
English edits by Zac De Board
NOTES
Continuing and concluding our 11-pages miniseries about the nature of comics and meta-comics.
It's the first, big arc of Get A Life! that finally comes to an end, celebrating 26 issues of adventures related to Martin Mystère's official comics.
The Crystal Skeleton is the first villain ever to be featured in Get A Life!, as he made his first appearance in The Secret Of The Crystal Skull.
The "Trinity Characters" line is also a reference to DC Comics' trinity, as Kurt Busiek described them: Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman--the trio that mystically keeps planet Earth together!
Crystal Skeleton's "man" line in panel 4 is a reference to Bart Simpson.
The whole "ruining the continuity" trip comes from the fact that the Skeleton is a parody of hard-core comic fans!
In panel 5, Java is being saved by a Hoarder, the first completely-original-villain ever created for Get A Life!.
His secret origin was revealed in The Face Of Orloff.
The Hoarder is the parody of those fans who collect everything about a character or a series.
