I fumettisti ricordano David Bowie

Fra gli artisti più importanti e influenti di sempre, David Bowie se n'è andato a causa di un cancro lasciando un grande vuoto in tutti i suoi ammiratori e nel mondo della cultura. Molti artisti hanno ricordato, a loro modo, il Duca Bianco e il sito Bleedingcool ha raccolto un lungo elenco di testimonianze, che vi riproponiamo qui di seguito.

I wrote a comic about David Bowie. https://t.co/OVLxIFvi2j

I refuse to believe that David Bowie is dead. He just dropped an album. He's faked his own death. It's viral marketing. I'm in denial.

— G. Willow Wilson (@GWillowWilson) January 11, 2016

RIP David Bowie, Hope your final transformation is a good one.

David Bowie got more out of his 69 years than I would if I lived to be 1,000.

— Kevin Maguire (@maguirekevin) January 11, 2016

Wait…WHAT?! Bowie died? Damn.

— Jimmy Aquino (@jimmyaquino) January 11, 2016

Bowie changed the world by standing outside of it. Didn't seem like it could touch him. But he fooled us again by being flesh and blood.

I've heard a rumor from Ground Control… Oh no, don't say it's true #bowie pic.twitter.com/wpH4lalBtW

Oh my fucking god. I'm incredibly saddened to learn that David Bowie passed away. What the fuck. It was way too soon.

— cameron hatheway (@CamComicCorner) January 11, 2016

At one point, we toyed with the idea of every #WicDiv god being based on an different aspect of Bowie. You could get 12 out of that, easy.

In the end, we went with Luci. pic.twitter.com/RLwePCcHko

Heart broken. I like to think somewhere Bowie and Freddy are dueting again.

— Joshua Hale Fialkov (@JoshFialkov) January 11, 2016

David Bowie's work has influenced and shaped me as a person and an artist so much I don't even know where to begin. Very sad. Bye Starman.

— JessFink (@JessFink) January 11, 2016

Bowie didn't died, he just went back to his home planet. #RIPbowie #Diamondogs

— RobbiRodriguez (@RobbiRodriguez) January 11, 2016

Stunned and sad. The world is emptier now, and all they stars crashing down. My love and sympathies to @ManMadeMoon.

— Neil Gaiman (@neilhimself) January 11, 2016

im against the death penalty but im tired of living in the world where charles manson outlives david bowie and lemmy

— Louis Falcetti (@LouieFalcetti) January 11, 2016

In passing, the last B-side in the last Phonogram out shortly is mainly about a Bowie record. Curse of Phonogram in fucking overdrive.

— Kieron Gillen (@kierongillen) January 11, 2016

I was so excited when the new Bowie album popped up in my music library just a couple days ago. This doesn't feel real. #fuckcancer

— david golbitz (@davidgolbitz) January 11, 2016

Bowie. No.

— Hayley Campbell (@hayleycampbell) January 11, 2016

Words fail. Luckily Bowie left a legacy of amazing music, so I’ll just listen to my favorite. Thank you. RIP Bowie https://t.co/fYyzb7XQO4

— Ron Richards (@ronxo) January 11, 2016

"I can remember, Standing by the wall. And the guns shot above our heads. And we kissed, as though nothing could fall." RIP Bowie.

— Henry Flint (@henryflintzombo) January 11, 2016

As sad as it is when someone like Bowie passes away, it's beautiful to see these brief moments when we're united in our love and respect.

— Stephanie Cooke (@hellocookie) January 11, 2016

The only thing to do now is go build the future David Bowie was living in. It was so strange and beautiful and that's why he showed it to us

— Mike Costa (@MikeCosta) January 11, 2016

With death, David Bowie becomes the patron saint of Otherness, of LGBT, of awkward, outsider kids, nerds, geeks, poets and weirdoes.

— Adi Tantimedh (@lookitmoves) January 11, 2016

The club just paused this band's set to announce David Bowie died.

— Nick Hanover (@Nick_Hanover) January 11, 2016

He's making me a list and I'm going to listen to all of it. So, thanks David Bowie, for helping me connect with my dad

I can't believe David Bowie has died

Thanks, Bowie. https://t.co/lINtSThZpV

Shocked & saddened by the death of one of my heroes. RIP David Bowie.

Oh, no. David Bowie, Pop Star Who Transcended Music, Art and Fashion, Dies at 69, via @nytimes https://t.co/KHI3pKRZYG

Thinking about various Bowie songs. I was doing really well and then it was Kooks, of all things, that set me off.

Hero. Forever and ever.

— Tom Taylor (@TomTaylorMade) January 11, 2016

So many storytellers are content with pandering to our comfort or congratulate themselves for pure antagonism. Bowie lead us to new places

— James Asmus (@JamesAsmus) January 11, 2016

I know it's probably more Queen than Bowie, but it was the "this is our last dance" slow rise that got me, which I credit to Bowie.

— Chris Schweizer (@schweizercomics) January 11, 2016

I'll schedule a few of these to go out over the next few days. https://t.co/4us0vtWbgw

— Brendon Connelly (@brendonconnelly) January 11, 2016

Good night, David Bowie. You changed everything.

— Ales Kot (@ales_kot) January 11, 2016

Planet Earth is blue. RIP David Bowie.

Impossible to have a favourite Bowie song – might as well have a "favourite song" – but this one comes close: https://t.co/vPpBq51CxL

A #WicDiv microfic, about the obvious: https://t.co/5fADAgrIBR

— Kieron Gillen (@kierongillen) January 11, 2016

I loved The Man Who Fell To Earth, and honestly imagined Bowie living to at least 100. His aura will stay with us.

"I feel so knocked out that something I've done has permeated these little seeds I've unwittingly planted" Bowie '02 https://t.co/pWwpkibtOQ

I know a lot of people will be crying tonight. And it's easy to make it about us. But two children lost their father A wife lost her husband

"We can be Heroes, for ever and ever" David Bowie https://t.co/630HobEoD3

— Grace Yee (@graceuk78) January 11, 2016

It's pretty terrific that Bowie gave us another album in the time he had, and that he saw it released before he passed.

— Jerry Ordway (@JerryOrdway) January 11, 2016

Another one. https://t.co/qaKQs08Jer

— Brendon Connelly (@brendonconnelly) January 11, 2016

Bowie existed so all of us misfits learned that an oddity was a precious thing. he changed the world forever.

— Guillermo del Toro (@RealGDT) January 11, 2016

I don't have a favorite Bowie song. I don't even have a favorite album. Is "Nearly all of them" acceptable? I have no other answer.

— Ryan Higgins (@RyanHigginsRyan) January 11, 2016

FUCK. #Bowie

RIP David Bowie. You were my mother's favorite musician, the soundtrack of my childhood….the sound of home. pic.twitter.com/rSgiJtClLR

You can count the number of events in my life as seismic to me as discovering David Bowie on one hand.

— Sean T. Collins (@theseantcollins) January 11, 2016

Think of all the art, all the beauty we wouldn't have if not for David Bowie. Not just what he created, but what he inspired.

— Jennifer de Guzman (@Jennifer_deG) January 11, 2016

Culturally, where does Bowie end? Feels like he's in everything. Background radiation.

— Al Ewing (@Al_Ewing) January 11, 2016

David Bowie Dead at 69 https://t.co/3fVajqvbqg

David Bowie. God damn. Loss of a Titan. Rest in peace.

— david golbitz (@davidgolbitz) January 11, 2016

I feel a bit weepy about Bowie. He was woven into the fabric and DNA of a couple of generations.

— Sarah Pinborough (@SarahPinborough) January 11, 2016

I remember watching The Prestige for the first time and being delighted at Bowie playing Tesla. Seemed perfect.

The irony is, despite his alien persona, Bowie always seemed incredibly down to earth.

— Moose Allain (@MooseAllain) January 11, 2016

I danced to Bowie at my wedding and he's propped me up so many times while I've been down. This is unbelievably sad.

— Christian Hoffer (@CatsComicsCbus) January 11, 2016

Ahh, bairns today. Gotta love 'em, the poor bastards. We got Bowie, they get Bieber. https://t.co/2SUhiFXSBg

— Leonard Sultana (@lennyukdeejay) January 11, 2016

Bowie's music never lingered for me, but I feel for everyone who woke to a gut punch. It's fine to cry for artists you loved.

— Patrick Dane (@PatrickDane) January 11, 2016

Keeping myself together with the thought that Bowie wouldn't cry *his* makeup off.

— Andrea Burgess (@echtburge) January 11, 2016

I don't care what anyone else says, I LOVED the first Tin Machine album. #Bowie

— Judge Mookie (@Tim_Pilcher) January 11, 2016

For me Bowie will forever be the fairy tale king that lived among Brian Froud goblins and Jim Henson Muppets at the center of the Labyrinth.

— Tess Fowler (@TessFowler) January 11, 2016

Retweeted MaffewOfBotchamania (@Maffewgregg): R.I.P. Bowie The queue to the afterlife must be look like fucking Argos at the minute.

— RobbiRodriguez (@RobbiRodriguez) January 11, 2016

David Bowie everywhere.

— Tom Muller (@hellomuller) January 11, 2016

"My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare I had to cram so many things to store everything in there" Bowie. Lyrical genius.

— Fee McBee (@feemcbee) January 11, 2016

Im not usually affected by celeb deaths but this has really shaken me.

— Cameron Stewart (@cameronMstewart) January 11, 2016

I mean, this death cover story is fine but we all know that David Bowie's spaceship finally picked him up. https://t.co/7sL8w53UZU
