Recensione del 12 dicembre 2009
Non sono in forma, indiscutibilmente. Ma il barbaro dei successi di Hollywood, o meglio, di Howard, a me non è piaciuto. Una lettura estremamente noiosa sempre, dalla prima all’ultima pagina, nonostante la rade, da hit, dei disegnatori e degli sceneggiatori. La mia distonia per le strisce irreali e per la fantascienza mi è nota. Ma io scrivo queste recensioni per me stesso. Ma io leggo, scrivo per me e valuta da solo. I supereroi mi possono piacere se e solo se sono grandi, grandissimi, invincibili. E se hanno una storia che si comprende. I limiti della razionalità mia. Conan è l’esatto opposto, non lo capisco, non mi piace Che devo fare? Proverò a vedere il film.… (altro)
