3.0 out of 5 stars Not one of Crepax's stronger pieces, February 13, 2005

This review is from: Anita Live & Input Anita, Volume 2 (Paperback)

The first story's premise is interesting - a TV remote that seems to bring the characters on screen into the physical world. Given Anita's habit of watching TV unclad, the results are about the same in every case, a close encounter of the physical kind. The second story, 'Input Anita', features the same attractive woman in a dream scene, again populated by men and women, singly and in groups, intent on making every use of Anita's person.

I admit that I haven't seen part 1. Maybe that gives some explanations that would have helped. I tend to doubt it, though. These appear to be Crepax's own stories, and those generally seem a good bit weaker than his adaptations, more scattered and with less visible story line. No one reads Crepax for the stories, though. As always, his female figures are sleek and attractive, and his male figures aren't. Crepax's pen drawings are always well executed, but he added color washes to specific features of some panels this time. It's fairly effective in 'Anita Live,' where Anita is drawn in outline but the fantasy characters are colored.

Crepax has done a good job illustrating other erotic stories. His illustration is just as good here, but the stories didn't live up to their potential.
