释义 |
Migraine Boy is a comic strip created by cartoonist Greg Fiering, which has been published in several mainstream printed media and TV. Usually presented in black and white six-panel strips, the comic is set in a typical American suburban neighbourhood backyard, and deals with a bad-tempered kid suffering from chronic migraines, and his interaction with his neighbour who constantly approaches him trying to befriend him. The stories have a grim, sometimes absurd or surreal sense of humor, and often end up with Migraine Boy reacting violently to the irritation produced by his neighbour.[1] HistoryThe comic strip made its first appearance in 1992 in the Seattle-based Hype magazine.[2] Over the course of the years, it was also published in other printed media, such as the Spy magazine, Flagpole Magazine, the Village Voice, UTNE Reader, The Baffler, Rolling Stone, and Entertainment Weekly. In 1994, the US rock band R.E.M. chose Fiering to create the album cover for their album titled Monster, after lead singer Michael Stipe saw Migraine Boy in the Flagpole magazine. This ultimately resulted in Flagpole introducing Stipe and Fiering to each other, and Migraine Boy being featured in the album's inside booklet.[3] A year later, in 1995 a 64-page book, called Migraine Boy's Fairweather Friends ({{ISBN|9780312143695}}), was published in the US by St. Martin's Griffin, featuring an introductory text written by Stipe. In 1996, animation studio GreenHead Media produced a series of twelve thirty-second short clips for MTV, animated by James Dean Conklin, which were aired as fillers over the duration of that year.[4] Later, in year 2000, a second book, titled I Don't Love You!: The Best of Migraine Boy ({{ISBN|9780943151915}}) was published by Slave Labor Graphics. In 2001, Fiering and Conklin independently produced an animated short film called Migraine Boy: The Bet, technically superior to those aired on MTV, which featured colored 3D graphics.[4][5] Since June 2010, Fiering has been posting new Migraine Boy comics on the official "Migraine Boy and Pals" website. AwardsThe Migraine Boy website was nominated for the 1997 Webby Awards, in the "Art and Design" category.[6] Characters
Because there is seldom continuity or consistency in Migraine Boy, the strip can have him kill his neighbor in the last panel.[8]
