-- (Palgrave Studies in Comics and Graphic Novels) --
(Palgrave Pivot) -- Includes bibliographical references and
index. -- "This book argues that superhero revision offers
new perspectives on the theory and practice of revision in
broader contexts, in particular composition studies. Key
developments in the history of superhero and composition
revision reveal that both are deeply embedded in questions
of narrative temporality. The book looks at three
unorthodox revision strategies: sideshadowing, in which
traditional tropes of superhero narratives are told with
"new" characters that clearly evoke traditional ones;
excavation, the reintegration and reinterpretation of
elements and influences from earlier texts that have been
de-emphasized or written out of continuity; and homodoxy,
the narrative coexistence of inconsistent elements culled
from different versions of a character's textual history.
The ensuing cross-disciplinary exploration helps correct a
distorted stereotype of revision as a neutral mechanical
process, revealing it instead as a potent force operating
across a spectrum that ranges from restrictive adherence to
orthodoxies, to radical resistance against the primacy of
tradition." -- Call no.: PN6725.H9 2017

-- Includes bibliographical references and index. --
"Examines the gradual, yet dramatic, transformation of
Saturday morning children's programming from being rooted
in American traditions and popular culture to reflecting
Japanese popular culture. In this modern era of
globalization and global media/cultural convergence, the
book brings to light an often overlooked phenomenon of the
gradual integration of narrative and character conventions
borrowed from Japanese storytelling into American
children's media. The book begins with a brief history of
Saturday morning in the United States from its earliest
years, and the interaction between American and Japanese
popular media during this time period. It then moves onto
reviewing the dramatic shift that occurred within the
Saturday morning block through both an overview of the
transitional decades as well as an in-depth analysis of the
transformative ascent of the shows Mighty Morphin Power
Rangers, Pokémon, and Yu-Gi-Oh!" -- Call no.: PN1992.8.C46

Representation of Genocide in Graphic Novels : Considering the
Role of Kitsch / Laurike in 't Veld. -- Cham, Switzerland :
Palgrave Macmillan, 2019. -- 230 p. : ill. (part col.) ; 21
cm. -- (Palgrave Studies in Comics and Graphic Novels) --
Includes bibliographical references and index. -- "This
book mobilises the concept of Kitsch to investigate the
tensions around the representation of genocide in
international graphic novels that focus on the Holocaust
and the genocides in Armenia, Rwanda, and Bosnia. In
response to the predominantly negative readings of kitsch
as meaningless or inappropriate, this book offers a fresh
approach that considers how some of the kitsch strategies
employed in these works facilitate an affective interaction
with the genocide narrative. These productive strategies
include the use of the visual metaphors of the animal and
the doll figure and the explicit and excessive depictions
of mass violence. The book also analyses where kitsch still
produces problems as it critically examines depictions of
perpetrators and the visual and verbal representations of
sexual violence. Furthermore, it explores how graphic
novels employ anti-kitsch strategies to avoid the dangers
of excess in dealing with genocide. The Re presentation of
Genocide in Graphic Novels will appeal to those working in
comics-graphic novel studies, popular culture studies, and
Holocaust and genocide studies. -- Call no.: PN6714 .I55

discusses developments and continuities in experimental
animation that, since Robert Russet and Cecile Starr's
'Experimental Animation: Origins of a New Art' (1976), has
proliferated in the context of expanded cinema, performance
and live 'making' and is today exhibited in galleries,
public sites and online. With reference to historical,
critical, phenomenological and inter-disciplinary
approaches, international researchers offer new and diverse
methodologies for thinking through these myriad animation
practices. This volume addresses fundamental questions of
form, such as drawing and the line, but also broadens out
to encompass topics such as the inter-medial,
post-humanism, the real, fakeness and fabrication,
causation, new forms of synthetic space, ecology, critical
re-workings of cartoons, and process as narrative." -- Call

Nobody's Fool : the Life and Times of Schlitzie the Pinhead /
Bill Griffith. -- New York : Abrams ComicArts, 2019. -- 248
p. : ill. ; 25 cm. -- Includes bibliographical references.
-- Summary (from publisher via OCLC): "The story of
Schlitzie's long career, from Coney Island and the Ringling
Bros. Circus to small town carnivals and big city
sideshows, is one of legend. Today, Schlitzie is most
well-known for his appearance in the cult classic Freaks
(produced by MGM of all studios in 1932 and directed by Tod
Browning, his first feature after the horror classic
Dracula), in which all of the sideshow performers were
real, not actors. The making of Freaks and Schlitzie's role
in the film is a centerpiece of the book. Freaks was also
the inspiration for Zippy the Pinhead, now in its 31st year
of newspaper syndication via King Features, and led to
Griffith's 50-year cartooning career. In researching
Schlitzie's life (1901-1971), Griffith has tracked down
primary sources and archives throughout the country,
including conducting interviews with those who worked with
him and had intimate knowledge of his personality, his
likes and dislikes, how he responded to being a sideshow
"freak," and much more. This graphic novel biography is not
exploitative, but instead humanizes Schlitzie by providing
never-before revealed details of his life, offering a
unique look into his world and restoring some dignity to
his life and recognizing his contributions to popular
culture." -- Biographical genre. -- Call no.:

Der Keller : Eine Entziehung : Graphic Novel / Thomas Bernhard

OCLC): Im zweiten Band seiner Autobiographischen Schriften
beschließt der Schüler Thomas Bernhard, sich seinem Leben
zu entziehen. Statt weiterhin die Schule zu besuchen,
findet er im Keller einer Lebensmittelhandlung am Rande der
verhassten Stadt, im Wohngetto der Besitzlosen und
Kriminellen, eine Lehrstelle. Er lernt dort die von der
Gesellschaft Ausgestoßenen kennen, denen er sich nahe
fühlt, und er lernt erstmals, was es heißt, angenommen zu
werden und 'nützlich' zu sein. Der Alltag im 'Keller'
erweist sich als heilsam, die 'Vorhölle' wird zur
'Zuflucht', bis eine schwere Krankheit Bernhards Lehre ein
jähes Ende setzt. Für den erzählerischen Ton des Autors
findet Lukas Kummer hier eine aufgelockerte Bildsprache. Er
begleitet Thomas Bernhard mit präzisem Strich durch diese
vielleicht hellste Zeit seiner Jugend und leuchtet den
'Keller' kongenial aus. -- Autobiographical genre. -- Call

Sticks Angelica, Folk Hero / Michael DeForge. -- Montreal,
Québec : Drawn & Quarterly, 2017. -- 1 v. : col. ill.
(orange & black) ; 16 x 29 cm. -- Originally published as a
webcomic. - Summary (from publisher via OCLC): "Sticks
Angelica is, in her own words, "49 years old. Former:
Olympian, poet, scholar, sculptor, minister, activist,
Governor General, entrepreneur, line cook, headmistress,
Mountie, columnist, libertarian, cellist." After a
high-profile family scandal, Sticks escapes to the woods to
live in what would be relative isolation were it not for
the many animals that surround and inevitably annoy her.
Sticks is an arrogant self-obsessed force who wills herself
on the flora and fauna. There is a rabbit named Oatmeal who
harbors an unrequited love for her, a pair of kissing
geese, a cross-dressing moose absurdly named Lisa Hanawalt.
When a reporter named, ahem, Michael DeForge shows up to
interview Sticks for his biography on her, she quickly
slugs him and buries him up to his neck, immobilizing him.
Instead, Sticks narrates her way through the forest,
recalling formative incidents from her storied past in what
becomes a strange sort of autobiography. Deforge's witty
dialogue and deadpan narration create a bizarre yet eerily
familiar world. Sticks Angelica plays with autobiography,
biography, and hagiography to look at how we build our own
sense of self and how others carry on the roles we create
for them in our own personal dramas." -- Alternative genre.

Adulthood is a Myth : a "Sarah's Scribbles" Collection / Sarah
Andersen. -- Kansas City, Missouri : Andrews McMeel

(from OCLC): Adulthood is a myth confronts head-on the
horrors, anxiety, and awkwardness of modern adult life.
From the agony of holding hands with a gorgeous guy to the
yawning pit of hell that is the wifi gone down to the
eye-watering pain of eating too-hot pizza because one
cannot stand to wait for it to cool down, Sarah fearlessly
documents it all. Like the work of fellow Millennial
authors Allie Brosh, Grace Helbig, and Gemma Correll,
Sarah's total frankness on extremely personal issues such
as body image, self-consciousness, introversion,
relationships, and bra-washing makes her comics highly
relatable and consistently hilarious. -- Women's genre. --

Men of Steel / Qui Nguyen. -- New York : Broadway Play
Publishing Inc., 2007. -- 92 p. ; 22 cm -- -- Summary (from
New York Times review on back cover): "Qui Nguyen's Men of
Steel introduces audiences to Captain Justice, a crusader
for the Iraq war era. A dead ringer for Captain America,
including the tights and shield, he was created by the
United States military and has dispensed with all kinds of
villains, but he still has his critics. The plot centers on
the friendship between Captain Justice and Maelstrom, a
wealthy playboy with a collection of gadgets and a sexual
secret. He's an angrier version of Batman. There are other
superheroes as well, including Bryant, a drag queen whose
power is that he doesn't feel pain, and Captain Justice's
sidekick, Liberty Lady, who some suspect is merely a P R
gimmick. Mr. Nguyen has an appealingly clean style that
mixes colloquial slang and hard-boiled detective fiction.
("Hope is only good for prisoners and bums playing the
lotto.") Some of his comic ideas are truly inspired, like
the mad villain, The Mole, who prefers making dramatic
statements of intent to actually avoiding weapons hurled at
him. This is a fully realized and contained world that
raises the skeptical question: If power corrupts, than what
about super power?" -- Superhero drama. -- Call no.:

PN6727.V428D5 2013 -- 823 p. : ill. ; 25 cm. -- Summary
(from amazon.com via OCLC): Digger is a story about a
wombat. More specifically, it is a story by author and
artist Ursula Vernon about a particularly no-nonsense
wombat who finds herself stuck on the wrong end of a
one-way tunnel in a strange land where nonsense seems to be
the specialty. Now, with the help of a talking statue of a
god, an outcast hyena, a shadow-being of indeterminate
origin, and an oracular slug she seeks to find out where
she is and how to go about getting back to her Warren. This
Omnibus Edition collects all six printed volumes, covering
all twelve chapters of the complete story. It contains all
the extra materials included in the individual volumes plus
a forward by Phil Foglio, a completely new story about
Digger's travels, a (mostly) complete collection of
Ursula's comments originally posted alongside the webcomic,
and a color section of the original cover art and fan art.

Si Lewen's Parade : an Artist's Odyssey / edited and with an
introduction by Art Spiegelman. -- New York : Abrams

-- Summary (from publisher via OCLC): "Si Lewen's Parade is
a timeless story told in a language that knows no
country--a wordless epic that, despite its muteness, is
more powerful than the written or the spoken word. First
published in 1957, The Parade is a lost classic, newly
discovered, remastered, and presented by Art Spiegelman,
the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Maus. Reproduced in a
unique two-sided accordion-fold format with an extensive
overview of the artist's career on the verso, The Parade is
a celebration of art and the story of recurring war as Si
Lewen experienced it over the past 90 years, watching the
joyful parades that marked the end of World War I lead into
the death marches of World War II and the Korean War. As
The Parade unfolds, the reader is taken on an unforgettable
journey of sequential images." -- Leaves are joined end to

The Panic Fables : Mystic Teachings and Initiatory Tales /
Alejandro Jodorowsky ; translated by Ariel Godwin. --
Rochester, Vermont : Park Street Press, 2017. -- 290 p. :
col. ill. ; 28 cm -- Includes bibliographical references.
-- Contents: Foreword : Jodorowsky's art for transmitting
wisdom / by Daniel González Dueñas ; Prologue: Eating
shadows and growing thin ; The panic fables / text,
drawings, and color by Alejandro Jodorowsky, June
4-1967-December 30, 1973. -- Translation of: Fábulas
Pánicas. -- Summary (from amazon.com via OCLC): "In 1967,
in response to theatrical censorship rules that put him on
the political 'black list' in Mexico City and caused his
plays and his pantomime classes at the School of Fine Arts
to be cancelled, Alejandro Jodorowsky decided to pursue a
new form of artistic expression to earn his living: comics.
Working with his friend Luis Spota, the editor of the
cultural section of the newspaper El Heraldo de México,
Jodo initially planned 3 months' worth of weekly comics,
which he would draw himself. However, his 'Panic
Fables'--named after his early '60s avant-garde theater
movement in Paris--were met with such insatiable popularity
that he continued the series for six and a half years, from
June 1967 until December 1973. Appearing for the first time
in English, this book presents all 284 of Jodorowsky's
Panic Fables in full color, along with an introduction by
the author. He reveals how his first comics reflected his
pessimism about the future and the meaning of life, the
negativity of which soon exhausted him. He realized he
needed to show the positivity that he encountered in life,
and thus, little by little, he began incorporating Zen
teachings, initiatory wisdom, and sacred symbology into his
Panic Fables. Through this transformation and the
outpouring of support from his devoted readers, many of
whom cite the Panic Fables as providing pivotal guidance
during their adolescence, Jodo discovered that art can
serve to heal as well as raise consciousness. Writing
himself into his comics, Jodo can be glimpsed as the
character of the disciple who talks with his master and, as
the series progresses, gradually grows to assume the role
of master, providing psychomagic solutions to the problems
of everyday life. In reading the complete Panic Fables in
chronological order, much like his film The Dance of
Reality, we witness in colorful detail Jodorowsky's own
path of spiritual growth." -- Call no.: PN6790.M44F2713

Universe, 2015. -- 160 p. : col. ill. (blue & black) ; 24
cm. -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 159). -- "In
this graphic novel, Simon Schwartz weaves biography and
fiction together to explore the life of Arctic adventurer
Matthew Henson. Moving between different time periods and
incorporating Inuit mythology, Schwartz offers fresh
perspective on the many challenges Henson confronted during
his life. As a member of early missions to reach the North
Pole, Henson braved subzero temperatures and shifting sea
ice. As an African American at the turn of the twentieth
century, he also faced harassment and prejudice. Henson won
a place on Arctic expeditions through skill and
determination--though he didn't receive the same credit as
his teammates. He also won the respect of the native
peoples he met during his journeys--though he couldn't
prevent the harm that the expeditions caused them. More
than a biography, First Man: Reimagining Matthew Henson is
an artistic homage to Henson's accomplishments and the
complicated realities of being a trailblazer in a society
that didn't recognize black men as equals. -- Translation
