Into endifunqule Iintsomi Ngaba yayiqhelene kangakanani nokusebenza ngaphakathi kwamabali awayevela kuwo. Kukho amabali amaninzi anamhlanje anabalinganiswa beentsomi zesikolo esidala, kodwa Iintsomi wayeneliso lezinto ezincinci. Kuyonwabile ukujika ezinye iitropu entloko ngelixa kugcinwa ezinye zenzalo (ngamanqanaba ahlukeneyo empumelelo). Ukufunda ezo comics kwakufana nokuwa ecaleni kweMobius strip, usuka ekucingeni ngebali leklasi kwaye ubuye kwakhona.
Kude kube sisiqendu sesithathu, khange ndiqonde ukuba yile nto bendikhe ndalahleka kuyo Ingcuka Phakathi Kwethu . Ngazo zonke ezinye iindlela, bekuziva ngathi Iintsomi ibali. Abalinganiswa abafanayo, umzobo ofanayo owoneleyo, ubungakanani obuchanekileyo bobumnyama, umlingo kunye nokuhlekisa. Kodwa ibilahlekile isithako esifihlakeleyo-into eyabonakala ngumzuzu xa ixutywe kwakhona.
Abonakalisi abathobekileyo kuzo zontathu iziqendu ze Ingcuka Phakathi Kwethu , ngokunjalo nakwabo bangakhange bafunde ii-comics.
Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, Ingcuka Phakathi Kwethu Ibali lomcuphi elidayiweyo-e-eboyeni. Amadoda anomsindo, abantu ababhinqileyo abafileyo, izigcawu zolwaphulo-mthetho ezinobundlongondlongo, abantu abaziphethe kakubi ngokwesini, abantu abathandabuzekayo abenza izinto ezibi. Siyalwazi olu hlobo lwebali kakuhle. Ngaphandle kwezinto ezazindinika ikhefu, ukuhanjiswa kwakuziva kucingisiswe ngononophelo, kwaye ndafumana umbono wokuba kukho inqanaba elithile lokuzazi ngokubalisa. Kuhlolisiso lwam lwesiqendu sesibini, ndincomile ukufakwa kwe-brothel enenjongo yokwenene yokubalisa, endikubonayo njengomboniso wababhali kunye nabaqambi abanolwazi malunga neetropiki eziqhelekileyo. Kodwa loo nto yayikumxholo we umdlalo yevidiyo iintsingiselo. Uhlobo, ngokungathandekiyo ngokwaneleyo, yayingeyiyo eyona nto iphambili ekujoliswe kuyo, kwada kwaba ngumlinganiswa owathetha le gem ilandelayo:
Ucinga ukuba ndiyakuthanda ukuba lixhegwazana kula mabali? Amadoda angamaqhawe, amanenekazi angamahenyukazi, kwaye abantu abadala abafana nam bajonga wonke umntu abamthandayo esifa.
Ingumgca omfutshane, unamathele embindini wempikiswano ekhawulezayo. Abanye abalinganiswa abayamkeli loo nto. Kodwa ndenzile. Itshintshe itoni yonke yomdlalo kum.
Umlinganiswa othetha ngaye uthetha ngeentsomi, kunye nokukwazi kwakhe ukuqonda iarchetype yakhe ayisiyonto ingaqhelekanga kule ndawo iphela. Uyintsomi, kwaye iiNtsomi azikho mbono malunga nokuba ziyintoni. Kodwa sebenzisa loo mgca kuhlobo lomcuphi, kwaye ulingana ngokulinganayo. Yisebenzise kwi iziqendu ezibini zokuqala zalo mdlalo , kwaye ilingana ngokulinganayo. Awubambeli esipilini ngoluhlobo ukuya kwibali lakho ngaphandle kokuba ubuceba ukwenza into engeyiyo. Awusibonisi isandla sakho ngaphandle kokuba unekhadi phezulu.
Xa ndicinga ngeziqendu ezize ngaphambili, ndiyabona ukuba ipateni iyavela. Isiqendu sokuqala zizinto eziqhelekileyo kwimigaqo-nkqubo yamapolisa-yenziwe kakuhle, kodwa ke yeyekhosi. Isiqendu sesibini sibonisa ukungafani, kodwa sihlala kwindawo yolwaphulo-mthetho eqhelekileyo. Okwesithathu kuqala ukwenza loo nto ihlekiswayo- ukukuqhatha ukuba ube kwibali ocinga ukuba uyazi, kukubonisa indlela esebenza ngayo yonke loo nto, emva koko ulawule ukumothusa.
Izinto zafumana amandongomane emva kwalomgca. Kwimiboniso elandelayo, izigqibo endizenzileyo zatyhilwa, kwaye imikhondo endiyifumeneyo ayichazanga nto. Onke amabali afanelekileyo omcuphi afuna ukujijwa, kodwa le yayiyinyani yokwenyani. Iziteki ayizizo izinto endandizilindele. Umntu omtsha ombi ayinguye lo bendimlindele (kwaye uyoyika ). UBigby uphezu kwentloko yakhe, kwaye akanayo indlela yokuzikhupha. Kwi-punch-first-and-ask-questions-later protagonist, uziva engenamandla ngokumangalisayo ngoku. (Oko akutsho ukuba mna njengomdlali ndaziva ndingenamandla. Ngokuchasene noko, ndiyayithanda xa amaqhawe esilela.)
Ndiyaqhubeka nokuchukumiseka ngokukhula komlingiswa we-Snow White, ngakumbi kuba bendimthandabuza kwisiqendu sokuqala. Ngandlela thile, ungumlinganiswa onyanzelayo kunoBigby. Mhlawumbi kungenxa yokuba uBigby ungumntu ovaliweyo ngendalo, kodwa ukukhula kweKhephu kulula kum ukuba ndizive. Ngamaqhekeza onke, uye azithembe ngakumbi, azimisele ngakumbi, kwaye angakulungeli ukunyamezela i-bullshit. Usaxhalabile ngokuthatha iofisi yeshishini, kodwa akazukuyiyeka loo nto imyekise. Xa uBigby engena kwindawo esele ekhona, kuyacaca ukuba ebexakekile esebenza ngaphakathi koluntu, ezama ukwenza unxibelelwano, ezama ukwenza umsebenzi Ichabod Crane ongaphumelelanga. Xa bekwiindawo zokubonisana, uziva ngathi ubhetyebhetye kaBigby, njengoko esenza kwiikomikhi. Andinamdla wokuphosa amanqindi kwaye ndilahlekelwe kukuphola ngelixa ekhona. Naxa sele hayi Apho, ndizifumana ndizama ukucaphukisa indlela endiphendula ngayo, kuba ndifuna ukumbonisa ukuba andinguye uBubi Omkhulu wonke umntu acinga ukuba ndinguye. Kuyahlekisa - ndiyazi ukuba ubudlelwane babo buvela njani kwii-comics, ke ayisiyiyo into yokuba ndikhathazekile ngesiphumo. Ingakumbi ndizama ngokuzama ukufaka le ngxelo kwinto esele ndiyazi. Ukukhohlisa ukuba ndibhalela ibali lam kunamandla apha.
Inxalenye ekhohlisayo malunga nokuphononongwa komdlalo we-episodic kukuba ukubonakala kwam kungasuswa ngokupheleleyo ngolu fakelo lulandelayo (nceda ujonge: iimvakalelo zam zantlandlolo malunga ne-Snow White). Nangona kunjalo, ndiyathemba ukuba iziqendu ezibini ezilandelayo ziyaqhubeka nokulandela uhlobo olufanayo lokuguqula indlela endiqala ukuyibona kwezi zintathu zokuqala. Ndifuna lo mdlalo ube ngumcu weMobius. Ndifuna ukuba ulindelo lwam lucelwe umngeni. Ndifuna ukuqhubeka ndibona abalinganiswa ababhinqileyo abanomdla (kukho iqela labo ngoku), kwaye ndifuna uBigby abuye nozuko. Ndicinga ukuba yile nto ndiyifumanayo, kwaye iyandonwabisa kakhulu.
