Rotospective: Ralph Bakshi’s Heavy Traffic is High on Detail, Consistency and Realism
“What makes you happy? What makes you happy? Where do you go? Where do you go? Where do you hide? Where do you hide? Who do you see? Who do you see? Who do you trust? Who do you trust?” Thus begins Ralph Bakshi’s sophomore work Heavy Traffic. These are very poignant questions. Ones that main character Michael must traverse through the city streets.

Rotospective: A look into Ralph Bakshi’s Wizards
Ralph Bakshi’s Wizards is just as relevant today as it was when it first came out in 1977, if not more so. The story is set after celebrating 3000 years of peace, since the world blew up in “a thousand atomic fireballs.”
Declassify >Field Report: An Infiltration of the Great Allentown Comic Con 2012 | Some things just can’t be replaced.
I recently infiltrated the Great Allentown Comic Con in the city’s Merchants Square Mall. The attendance was not what it had been in the past and there weren’t quite the number of dealers that usually show up, but that can be attributed to the beating this and surrounding areas had taken due to Superstorm Sandy and the Nor’Easter that dumped winter weather in New Jersey.
Attendance aside, the atmosphere was upbeat – how could it not be with a room full of comics!
