This article has two goals. First, it seeks to contextualize the production and consumption of photocomics during apartheid. Second, focusing on one popular form of the photocomic, the Western, I look at how narrative and aesthetic conventions of the form reinforced, yet simultaneously disturbed, the apartheid state's fantasy of total segregation. Reading practices fostered interracial contact in the imaginative and affective spheres even while apartheid doctrine attempted to prevent it. Conjoining text and photograph, sequence and still, mimesis, fantasy, Europe, Africa, and the Americas, the photocomic is not just an outmoded form of popular entertainment, but instead connects readings in popular culture with the formation of complex political subjectivities." -- Includes bibliographical footnotes. -- Call no.: PN6790.S6S3 2010 ----------------------------------------------------- My Dearest Devil Princess / story by Makoto Matsumoto ; art by Maika Netsu ; translation, Satsuki Yamashita. -- Los Angeles : Broccoli Books, 2007- . -- ill. ; 18 cm. -- "First published in Japan by JIVE ltd." -- Fantasy genre. -- LIBRARY HAS: v. 2. -- Call no.: PN6790.J33 N45M913 2007 ----------------------------------------------------- Moby Dick : based on the novel by Herman Melville / retelling by Lew Sayre Schwartz ; illustrations by Dick Giordano ; historical text by Steve Urbon ; colorist, Daniel Vozzo. -- Boston : Houghton Mifflin, 2002. -- 48 p. : col. ill.; 23 x 29 cm. -- Summary (from SkyRiver): This is a retelling of Herman Melville's "Moby Dick," describing a fast-paced battle between Captain Ahab and his crew and the white whale, known as Moby Dick. -- Adventure story genre. -- Call no.: PN6727.G555M6 2002 ----------------------------------------------------- Victorian England as Seen by Punch / Frank E.
