Thanks for visiting our blog to lean more about this emerging long time underground force that has transformed so much...with so little it is now qualified to do the impossible with less.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are few comix at the level of those published by the awesome indie operation of ONLI STUDIOS. Headed by its Chief Operating Artist, Prof. Turtel Onli, M.A.A.T., since its founding in 1981, it launched the expansion of the entire comix industry to open up to real diversity.
Most of ONLI STUDIOS products come in an archival plastic bag with over-sized trading cards graciously included. This is because Prof. Onli truly appreciates your participation in exploring and supporting ways to advance creativity, concepts and content in areas the mainstream refuses.
"ONLI STUDIOS returns the luv!"
A wider range of styles, concepts, sources and even the actual people and cultures manifested in the animation, Graphic Novels and comics industries were slowly morphed to present day levels and soaring.
Prof. Onli often asks the question: "How Black or really diverse was this industry before I launched the indie Black Age of Comics genre & movements in 1993?"
Onli designed the cover and character look for this best selling Funk-Disco album in 1978.
Onli is smart enough to know that way too many folks fear or dispise the term...."Black". They balk that if its called "Black" it must be just for Black folks. Then in too many African American communities folks say, "We do not have to support you just 'cause you are Black!"
When Onli says "Black" he means styles and flavors....distinct and full of growth potential.
Onli says participate in this because we are awesome, unique, trail blazing and so damn intelligent. Plus y'all eat Thai, Italian, Chinese or Mexican cuisines and you all are not of those heritages or cultures. And you never say if its called by those descriptors that it must only be for them.
