November 1989. Launched three months after the end of the previous LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES book, Keith Giffen's "v4" series remains the Legion's most controversial phase. Set five years after the end of the outgoing book, it stripped the gloss from the Legion's future: 30th Century Earth has withdrawn from the United Planets and is sinking into xenophobic, totalitarian isolationism; the Legion has disbanded, its members and allies scattered to the winds. Some characters are dead, maimed, missing, or imprisoned; a few are now collaborators; and the rest are preoccupied with their own problems. Former Legionnaire Reep Daggle (Chameleon Boy), now fabulously wealthy, decides the only solution is to put the band back together, but the universe has problems that may be too big for an organization of aging former teen superheroes.
Dense, complex, and often quite dark, the storyline begins in medias res, and it takes some time to piece together what's going on (to say nothing of trying to keep straight the no-longer-costumed characters, who have real names like "Rokk Krinn"). However, there's actual substance to reward the effort, and scripters Tom & Mary Bierbaum bring the characters to vivid life. People who enjoyed BABYLON 5, DEEP SPACE NINE, or BATTLESTAR GALACTICA would probably also find much to enjoy here, although those unfamiliar with the Legion may need a cheat-sheet, and it's perhaps best to assume that the series ends after issue #36, the end of the "Terra Mosaic" arc.
This run was frequently hampered by ongoing editorial feuds, not due to its content (although that rubbed many longtime readers the wrong way), but because of issues related to the Legion's lingering ties to Superman, which resulted in a number of further continuity shuffles. Giffen actually quit several times during the run, leaving the Bierbaums floundering (issues without Giffen's name on them are usually a mess), and his final storyline in #38–#40 was an extremely bitter pill that broke the setting so thoroughly that a corrective continuity reset was basically inevitable. After his departure, the Bierbaums remained through issue #50 (and for most of the run of the ill-advised LEGIONNAIRES spinoff book), but with no direction and little editorial support, it was increasingly hopeless. DC eventually opted for an infuriating reboot that scrapped 45 years of Legion history in favor of a return to cutesy teen heroes with silly names. (Giffen's intended resolution wouldn't have been much better; his plan was to eventually reveal that the adult Legionnaires were all clones — as with Marvel's ill-fated Ben Reilly Spider-Clone storyline — which would also have been very dire.) The Legion has never really recovered, despite a further succession of partial or total reboots.

Maria Mulas Lavori in corso
Testo : Mario Fortunato, Intervista : Laura Lepetit
Studio d'Arte Raffaelli, Trento 2008, 40 pagine, 30 x 20 cm
euro 25,00
Catalogo della mostra tenuta a Trento tra il 13 marzo e il 16 maggio 2008 per la rassegna “Sentieri Trentini”.
Volume in gran parte illustrato con belle riproduzioni a colori delle fotografie dell'artista. Con un'intervista a Maria Mulas di Laura Lepetit. Testo di Mario Fortunato, anche in inglese.
Descrivendo in un’intervista le sensazioni provate durante un viaggio attraverso il Trentino, Maria Mulas (Milano, 1956) racconta: “La mia origine stava in quei luoghi, mi sentivo felice, pervasa da una calma infinita”. La fotografa è infatti di origine trentina da parte di madre e la sua mostra rientra nel ciclo espositivo “Sentieri Trentini”, che annualmente porta lo Studio Raffaelli a invitare un artista locale o nazionale per raccontare la Regione attraverso i propri mezzi artistici.
Nella prima parte della mostra, Mulas cattura ambienti, paesaggi e scorci cogliendone l’aspetto più intimo, distaccandosi in questo modo dalle rappresentazioni abituali e dall’approccio della fotografia documentaria. Al Castello del Buonconsiglio immortala gli affreschi cinquecenteschi di Romanino, che la affascinano non soltanto per la qualità artistica intrinseca ma per l’effetto che la luce tagliente crea, penetrando dalle vetrate. L’obiettivo si sofferma su alcuni particolari degli affreschi senza rivelarne l’interezza e creando in questo modo quadri autonomi. Una vicinanza tra la fotografa e i suoi soggetti si nota invece nei ritratti. Le fotografie di artisti e collezionisti scattate tra gli anni ‘70 e ‘90 non sono mera documentazione: le espressioni e gli sguardi che i protagonisti rivolgono all’obiettivo rivelano rapporti di amicizia e complicità. Tra i protagonisti della scena internazionale dell’arte ci sono Henry Moore, Andy Warhol, Joseph Beuys, Fausto Melotti, Bruce Nauman, Keith Haring, che guardano attraverso la lente della macchina fotografica rivelandosi nella propria intimità.

ROLLING STONES QUOTES -Mick Jagger and Keith Richards about the unreleased 1972 ‘Cocksucker Blues’ movie (2008)
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards about the unreleased 1972 ‘Cocksucker Blues’ movie (2008):Mick: “I wouldn’t mind releasing it. It’s fine. That’s a good movie. It didn’t come out – but that’s a classic. I wanted to make one kind of movie, but the director fucks you over because he doesn’t want to do the movie he’s agreed to make. I said, You could make this dark movie, but you got to have these…
