Did You Hear What Eddie Gein Done?
by Harold Schechter, Eric Powell
Well this was disturbing. Cool. Cool cool cool.
It also makes me think a lot about what nonfiction is. I mean, this medium itself is cinema graphic and there’s a certain amount of license cutting to scenes of pure conjecture, admitted to be not much more than a theory; though they believe it, based on significant evidence they’ve consumed… but certainly cannot remotely prove. Scenes where Eddie is wearing skin and upon a corpse in “motion”, for instance. Or other such license taken. Events shifted from location to location. Filling in the fiction where things are blurry makes it all fiction to me. Mostly true seems to skate by though, doesn’t it?
Otherwise, I think the paneling work is great and I like the artwork. Certainly a gripping story. Hadn’t a clue about him, nor the inspiration for Psycho and Silence of the Lambs derived from him.
