As letras nos quadrinhos

Talvez o aspecto mais negligenciado das histórias em quadrinhos sejam o letreiramento (lettering, em inglês). Sabemos que as palavras são fundamentais pras HQs, mas não damos muita bola pra artesania envolvida no posicionamento dos balões, no desenho das letras, nas muitas vezes sutis escolhas envolvidas, por exemplo, na cor de fundo de um recordatório, e por aí vai.

Dave Gibbons, em seu livro How Comics Work, afirma que o letreiramento é como a trilha sonora dos filmes: se você percebe que ela existe, provavelmente algo está errado. É uma arte invisível, mas importante ao ponto de conseguir arruinar uma história, não importa quão lindos sejam os desenhos ou quão magnífico seja o texto.

Trago abaixo duas páginas de Thor #360 (1985), história escrita e desenhada por Walt Simonson, com letras de John Workman Jr. 

Percebam como o posicionamento dos balões nunca briga com as imagens: eles são sempre posicionados discretamente no topo, no fundo ou nas laterais dos quadros. Outra coisa que chama a atenção é como esse posicionamento torna a leitura fácil, confortável, natural e sem esforço. Levando em conta o "método Marvel", vou trabalhar com a pressuposição de que Simonson ficou responsável pelo posicionamento final dos balões, já que ele escreveu e desenhou a história. É bem provável que Workman tenha apenas "passado a limpo" as letras de Simonson já no balão pronto.

Mesmo quando o artista usa um truque como o do balão marcado com azul, nossa atenção não é desviada. É um recurso tão sutil que, sem perceber, invertemos a ordem natural (da esquerda para a direita) de "leitura" das imagens neste quadro específico: por conta do posicionamento da fala do Executor, nossos olhos são atraídos pra ele, depois pra mão da Amora, pro rosto dela e, finalmente, pros balões de texto na extrema esquerda, os quais, normalmente, seriam os primeiros a serem lidos. O posicionamento engenhoso de um pequeno balão nos levou a ler todo um quadro na ordem inversa da qual estamos acostumados. Isso sem mencionar a sutileza de conseguir posicionar, lado a lado no quadro, as palavras "My feet!" e o pé do Executor, que é justamente a imagem focal da página.

Na página acima, da mesma forma, o fluxo de leitura das imagens é amparado pelos balões, especialmente na imagem central da página, o close no rosto de Frigga. O posicionamento do balão no canto inferior esquerdo do quadro central, em conjunto com o balão seguinte, no canto superior direito, orienta nossos olhos numa diagonal ascendente, criando um efeito respeitoso, como se víssemos Frigga de uma posição inferior, o que condiz com a posição da personagem na história (ela é a regente provisória de Asgard naquele momento) e é realçado no quadro seguinte, em que Thor se ajoelha diante dela.

São duas páginas que mostram muito bem a arte sutil do letreiramento e a importância que o posicionamento dos balões tem para o sucesso ou o fracasso de uma história em quadrinhos.

So is Superman: Year One done yet or what

All three issues are each the most Frank Miller shit in the world, each in totally different ways that clearly don’t belong together as a single story. It’s utterly bonkers, because the opening is for its sins still actually kind of a sweet little coming-of-age tale in spite of everyone talking like Frank the Tank only knows about Kansas from 1920s cartoons, then the second is the most off-kilter take on a college-age-Clark-Kent story anyone has ever seen which also reads like Miller weirdly apologizing for Holy Terror but not at all getting it, and the finale - in spite of Miller clearly having full creative and format autonomy - is visibly him going ‘oh shit, wait, I’ve only got one issue left?!’ and cramming in another miniseries-and-a-half worth of plot that reads closest to what you’d expect in the abstract of a comic called Superman: Year One, if that comic just stopped instead of ending and also was on so much cocaine. Neither fish nor fowl, offering neither the rat-fuck unhinged delights of the likes of All-Star Batman & Robin nor the blinding shock of realizing Frank Miller can in fact still write good comics of The Dark Knight Returns: The Golden Child, it’s not a comic I would emphatically recommend to literally anyone, but I can’t say it wasn’t one of the most memorable titles of the year for me. 

John Romita Jr. innocent though, even if he does indeed draw kids with weird big heads and also sounds like an asshole in real life.
