How Did He Draw That?! Exploring Carlos Meglia’s Insane Art book Tribute!

[@emilianolemos8075]

The man inspired Ramos, Young, Herrera and many more who triumphed in the USA and paradoxically for him, the father of all that style, he was rejected a lot in that market. Carlos continues to be missed here in Argentina and in the places where he is appreciated. Thanks for this video! Greetings from Argentina

@@emilianolemos8075 Thank-you!!! Much love and respect to Meglia, his family, and fans!!! 🙏🏻💜

Cybersix as a cartoon and later the comic was integral to not only the development of my artistic journey but the shaping of my personal identity as well, so it's wonderful to see the man responsible for so much of my childhood be given his flowers for the massive impact he had in the form of this book. RIP GOAT.

@Icarlyfan44 Well as a transgender man, growing up I had never seen a character like Cybersix before in media. She lived a double life as the opposite gender because her true identity would not be accepted due to circumstances out of her control. Although her character was not transgender I greatly admired how resilient she was and kept her attitude towards life in the back of my mind as I grew older and encountered similar difficulties in the real world.

I met Carlos several times, wen to visit his studio, and had great talks. He was a master. Humble. And FUNNY AF. I was crushed when he passed, we are lucky he left some good stuff as his legacy.

[@Sketchcraft]

@@matosaw161 Thank-you for sharing that, I never got to meet him, so glad to hear he was as beautiful a person as his art is.

[@peterang78]

I still miss Meglia to this day. He’s still one of the biggest influencer to my art style. Amazing tribute book.

[@Sketchcraft]

100% the size is perfect as well. 🙏🏻👊

[@SkoobasArt]

Its crazy how many of us are just discovering this man in the last couple years for whatever reason. Thank you for taking the time to give him the tribute and space his work deserved

[@Sketchcraft]

Finally. I have been waiting for this video for months. And Uncle Jerk is involved. You just made my week

[@leonelcastellani3699]

So nice to see Meglia´s work receive so much love. He truly was one of the greatest.

[@YawnMovies]

Ironically Meglia's Star Wars is my favourite Star Wars comic. It is how I discovered this genius of an artist. Such a shame he passed away so early.

[@Sketchcraft]

Yeah, I hear you on that. Meglia's take on Star Wars is top-notch and definitely my favorite too. It's tight competition with Olivier Vatine’s ‘Heir to the Empire’ and Hisao Tamaki's adaptation, for sure. They all rock the Star Wars universe with their unique, bold cartooning styles. But Meglia gets the edge in my book because he brought something totally original to the table. Such a massive loss when he passed; the dude was seriously talented.

[@NNComics]

i LOVE the art of Carlos... Thanks!!

[@mikedolan6176]

✌️🤘 here to wave the JerkArmy flag! Great video!

This guy can do it all loved this video this inspires me to explore more shapes and push them.

@@vloopyart Awesome!

[@SomeBsMovie]

It all comes full circle. Anyways, if this is how you broadcast your yapping, im happy to view it this way.

Never heard "hispanime" before but i'm using this from now on to describe my stuff!!!

@@artofraw8151 Hellz yeah!!! 🙏🏻👊

[@tapinewoods3937]

I love that guy's work. Rest in peace legend and his friend that gave us Cybersix. Love the animated series. Shame we never got season 2. By the way, which is your favorite comic series from him?

[@Sketchcraft]

@@tapinewoods3937 Carlos Meglia’s Superman in Infinite City is my top pick. The vivid coloring and complete evolution make it stand out. And Star Wars Underworld? It’s my favorite for traditional inks and layouts, I just wish he'd colored it himself.

[@tapinewoods3937]

@@Sketchcraft Yeah, we lost a great man.

[@alexismeeks4874]

would you be able yo scan the book so you can share with others?

[@lucianovizcarra3288]

He's from my country ¡Argentina!

[@Sketchcraft]

@@lucianovizcarra3288 Heck yeah he is!!! 👏👏👏

[@sayonarakid]

god. having this book is a dream of mine. But you only find it for crazy prices. Its impossible to get. Don't know why not mkae a new edition.

[@Sketchcraft]

Yeah, 100% I was lucky to grab mine before 2020. Would love to see a reissue with more orig art scans.

[@heinrichhertzsprung6889]

In argetinian?

@@heinrichhertzsprung6889 We're speaking off the cuff yo.

[@reginaldforthright805]

Cybersix is brilliant and probably his best work. Much of this stuff is way out of control and loses any sense of form, easy to happen with highly stylized art.
