Schlitzie: One of Us
Himself
The rise and fall...and rise of Schlitzie, the lovable man-child performer from Tod Browning's cult film "Freaks." He lived to perform, until he was put in an institution and left to die. His persona earned him a place in Punk history when the Ramones recorded "Pinhead," dolls and jewelry were created in his image, and "American Horror Story: Freakshow" paid homage to him. According to sideshow lore, Schlitzie was one of the most beloved performers.

Comic Book Confidential
En el siglo 20, en Norteamerica, no hay medio artístico, con potencial para la expresión creativa, que haya tenido una historia más turbulenta y con menos respeto que los libros de historietas. A través de montajes animados, lecturas y entrevistas, esta guía a través de la historia del medio desde la década de 1930 y 1940 con la primera explosión de la popularidad de los superhéroes creados por grandes talentos como Jack Kirby y que alcanzó su cénit artístico de primera con Will Eisner "Espíritu". A continuación, se desplaza a la posguerra, con la creciente popularidad de los cómics de terror y de delincuencia, hasta que ha llegado el aumento de la censura con la imposición del Comics Code. En su paso por la devastación de la libertad creativa del medio, también explora la supervivencia desafiante de EC Comics con la creación de la singular "Mad Magazine" por Harvey Kurtzman.
