Kunka. -- New Brunswick : Rugers University Press, 2022. -- 177 pages : ill. ; 25 cm. -- (Critical Graphics) -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 165-169) and index. -- Summary (from OCLC): The remarkable story of how a self-described "preacher's kid" from Birmingham, Alabama, became the so-called "Godfather of Gay Comics." This study showcases a remarkable fifty-year career that included working in the 1970s underground comics scene, becoming founding editor of the groundbreaking anthology series Gay Comix, and publishing the graphic novel Stuck Rubber Baby, partially based on his own experience of coming of age in the Civil Rights era. Through his exploration of Cruse's life and work, Andrew J. Kunka also chronicles the dramatic ways that gay culture changed over the course of Cruse's lifetime, from Cold War-era homophobia to the gay liberation movement to the AIDS crisis to the legalization of gay marriage. Highlighting Cruse's skills as a trenchant satirist and social commentator, Kunka explores how he cast a queer look at American politics, mainstream comics culture, and the gay community's own norms. Lavishly illustrated with a broad selection of comics from Cruse's career, this study serves as a perfect introduction to this pioneering cartoonist, as well as an insightful read for fans who already love how his work sketched a new vision of gay life. -- Call no.: PN6727.C73 Z3 K8 2022 ----------------------------------------------------- Keeping it Unreal : Black Queer Fantasy and Superhero Comics / Darieck Scott. -- New York : New York University Press, 2022. -- 267 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. -- (Sexual Cultures) -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 241-253) and index. -- Summary (from publisher via OCLC): "Explores how fantasy, especially superhero comics which are usually derided as naïve and childish, is a catalyst for engaging the black radical imagination. Such engagements prompt 'fantasy-acts' against antiblackness, a transgressive way of 'reading' beyond the comic-book page to envision and to experience alternate and potentially more just realities. Fantasies about superhero characters are not just or even primarily forms of escape, the author argues, but are active reshapings of readers and their worlds. This book offers a rich meditation on the relationship between fantasy and reality, and between the imagination and being, as it weaves Scott's personal recollections of his encounters with superhero comics with interpretive readings of figures like the Black Panther, Luke Cage, Nubia, and Blade, and theorists such as Frantz Fanon, Eve Sedgwick, Leo Bersani, Saidiya Hartman, and Gore Vidal."-- A book about African American superheroes and superhero comics. -- Call no.: PN6714.S384 2022 ----------------------------------------------------- Sexuality : a Graphic Guide / Meg-John Barker & Jules Scheele. -- London : Icon Books, 2021. -- 176 p. : ill. ; 26 cm. -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 175-176). -- "Sex is everywhere. It's in the stories we love and the stories we fear. It defines who we are and our place in society, at least we're told it ought to. Sex and sexuality can seem like a house of horrors, full of monsters and potential pitfalls. We often live with fear, shame and frustration when it comes to our own sexuality, and with judgement when it comes to others'. With compassion, humor, erudition and a touch of the erotic, the authors shine a light through the darkness and unmask the monsters." -- Educational genre. -- Call no.: HQ12.B37 2021 Barker, Meg-John, 1974- Scheele, Jules, 1984- ----------------------------------------------------- Gender : a Graphic Guide / Meg-John Barker, Jules Scheele. -- London : Icon Books Ltd, 2019. -- 176 p. : ill. ; 26 cm. -- Includes bibliographical references and index. -- "An essential comic-book journey from the creators of Queer: A Graphic History that will change the way you think about gender. Is masculinity 'toxic?' Why are public toilets such a political issue? How has feminism changed the available gender roles, and for whom? Why might we all benefit from challenging binary thinking about sex/gender? In this unique illustrated guide, Meg-John Barker and Jules Scheele travel through our shifting understandings of gender across time and space, from ideas about masculinity and femininity, to non-binary and trans genders, to intersecting experiences of gender, race, sexuality, class, disability, and more. Tackling current debates and tensions, which can divide communities and even cost lives, Barker and Scheele look to the past and the future to explore how we might all approach gender in more caring and celebratory ways." -- Educational genre, about sex role, gender identity and nonconformity, and sexual minorities. -- Call no.: HQ18.55.B367 2019 ----------------------------------------------------- Beyond II : the Queer Post-Apocalyptic & Urban Fantasy Comic Anthology / edited by Sfé R.

Debuting just a few months after Batman himself, Robin has been an integral part of the Dark Knight's history-and debuting just a few months prior to the word "teenager" first appearing in print, Robin has from the outset both reflected and reinforced particular images of American adolescence. Closely reading several characters who have played Robin over the past eighty years, Robin and the Making of Americ an Adolescence reveals the Boy (and sometimes Girl) Wonder as a complex figure through whom mainstream culture has addressed anxieties about adolescents in relation to sexuality, gender, and race." -- Call no.: PN6728.R576 O36 2021 ---------------------------------------------------- Hacking Graphic Novels : 8 Ways to Teach Higher-Level Thinking with Comics and Visual Storytelling / Shveta V.

Graphic novels are a uniquely poised vehicle we can use to bridge this dissonance between student communication skills and preferences with mandated educational goals. Worth a Thousand Words details how and why graphic novels are complex texts with advanced-level vocabulary, and demonstrates how to read and analyze these texts. It includes practical advice on how to integrate these books into both ELA and content-area classrooms and provides an extensive list of appropriate graphic novels for K-8 students, lesson suggestions, paired graphic/prose reading suggestions, and additional resources for taking these texts further." -- A book about using comics in education. -- Call no.: LB1044.9.C59 J35 2019 ----------------------------------------------------- Selbst- und Fremdbilder von Roma in Comic und Graphic Novel : vom Holocaust bis zur Gegenwart / Marina Ortrud M. Hertrampf, Kirsten von Hagen (Hg.). -- München : AVM.Edition, Akademische Verlagsgemeinschaft München, 2021. -- 276 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 21 cm. --(Ästhetik(en) der Roma : Selbst- und Fremdrepräsentationen ; 3) -- Summary (back cover): "Roma sind als größte ethnische Minderheit seit Jahrhunderten in Europa heimisch und sind doch bis heute massiven Vorurteilen und rassistischen Ressentiments ausgesetzt. Die longue durée der vorurteilsbehafteten Heterostereotype spiegelt sich nicht nur in Alltag und Politik, sondern auch in den unterschiedlichen Formen des graphischen Erzählens. Mehrheitsgesellschaftliche Comics und Graphic Novels bedienen sich eines sehr eingeschränkten Repertoires althergebrachter Heterostereotype. In den gegenwärtig populären Geschichts- und Reportagecomics wird hingegen versucht, eben diesen Klischeebildern durch dokufiktionale Darstellungsmodi entgegenzuwirken. Diese Strategie findet sich auch bei vielen Selbstdarstellungen von Roma, die ganz explizit in den Fokus gerückt werden, um Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede von Selbst- und Fremddarstellungen sowie deren unterschiedliche Formen und Funktionen auszuloten. Der transdisziplinär-komparatistisch konzipierte Band nimmt dabei Perspektiven der Kultur- und Comicwissenschaften wie der Soziologie, Theologie und den Romani Studies ein. -- 8 German, 2 English contributions. -- A book about Romanies in European comics. -- Call no.: PN6790.E9 S45 2021 ----------------------------------------------------- Consequential Art : Comics Culture in Contemporary Spain / edited by Samuel Amago and Matthew J.

But what about their ability to express and interpret philosophical concepts? How can we differentiate between the representation of theoretical concepts in and of themselves, and the impact of comics techniques on the legacy of philosophers, their lives and their thought? This book explores the historical and artistic value of representing lives through the medium of bande dessinée (BD), French-language comics. The text analyses three biographical BDs dedicated to the lives of Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir and Albert Camus as well as a selection of print and online comics that extend the legacy of these philosophers and their historical movement. The work is the first to analyse biographical BD through the lens of Existentialism, offering a new theory of reading biographical comics. The research not only contributes a novel approach to comics but also an enhanced understanding of Existentialism and the Existentialists, including their enduring contemporary relevance." -- A book about biographical comics about existentialists, and ethics in comics. -- Call no.: PN6745.B44 2021 Sartre--Articles About.

Graphic Encounters moves beyond seeing the reading of comics as a debased or simplified word-based literacy. Dale Jacobs argues compellingly that we should consider comics as multimodal texts in which meaning is created through linguistic, visual, audio, gestural, and spatial realms in order to achieve effects and meanings that would not be possible in either a strictly print or strictly visual text. Jacobs advances two key ideas: one, that reading comics involves a complex, multimodal literacy and, two, that by studying how comics are used to sponsor multimodal literacy, we can engage more deeply with the ways students encounter and use these and other multimodal texts. Looking at the history of how comics have been used by publishers, churches, schools, and libraries, among others, will help us think more clearly about multimodal literacy, comics readers, and comics themselves." -- Call no.: LB1044.9.C59 J33 2013 Jacobs, Dale, 1966- ----------------------------------------------------- Alienation : Migration in Graphic Novels / Barbara Eder. -- Berlin : Ch.

Robertson comes this special edition of the timeless graphic novel that introduced the world to the awe-inspiring resilience of Betty Ross, and shared her story of strength, family, and culture. A school assignment to interview a residential school survivor leads Daniel to Betsy, who tells him her story. Abandoned as a young child, Betsy was soon adopted into a loving family. A few short years later, at the age of 8, everything changed. Betsy was taken away to a residential school. There she was forced to endure abuse and indignity, but Betsy recalled the words her father spoke to her at Sugar Falls--words that gave her the resilience, strength, and determination to survive. Sugar Falls is based on the true story of Betty Ross, Elder from Cross Lake First Nation. We wish to acknowledge, with the utmost gratitude, Betty's generosity in sharing her story. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of Sugar Falls goes to support the bursary program for The Helen Betty Osborne Memorial Foundation. This 10th-anniversary edition brings David A. Robertson's national bestseller to life in full colour, with a foreword by Senator Murray Sinclair, Chairman of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, and a touching afterword from Elder Betty Ross herself." -- Historical genre, about indigenous peoples, boarding schools and child abuse in Canada. -- Call no.: PN6733.H403 S8 2021 Yaciuk, Donovan, 1975- Sinclair, Murray, 1951- ----------------------------------------------------- Black Panther and Philosophy : What can Wakanda Offer the world? / edited by Edwardo Pérez and Timothy E.

Now a new generation employs this medium to put into question hegemonic views on the economy, politics, and society. Following the experience of the financial crisis of the past decades and its impact on social policies, access to and rules of public discourse, and civil strife, comics have questioned what constitutes a traumatogenic situation and what can act as a creative response.0By looking at established graphic novels by Marco Mendes and Miguel Rocha, fanzine-level, and even experimental productions, 'Visualising Small Traumas' is the first English-language book that addresses Portuguese contemporary comics and investigates how trauma studies can both shed a light on comics making and be informed by that very same practice." -- Call no.: PN6790.P8 M6 2022 ----------------------------------------------------- The Pride Omnibus / the Pride created by Joe Glass and Gavin Mitchell ; cover by Ricardo Bessa. -- Milwaukie, OR : Dark Horse Books, 2021. -- 443 p. : col. ill. ; 26 cm. -- "This volume collects The Pride volume 1, The Pride volume 2, The Pride Adventures volume 1." -- Summary (from back cover): "In The Pride, Fabman is sick of being seen as a joke.

This research presents an overall objective to reflect on the pedagogical potential of comics and their contributions in the school context, being used as a teaching resource in classrooms with students of elementary school. Moreover, it is intended to suggest some strategies for the use of this narrative mode in classrooms with students of this type of education, helping to improve and streamline the approach of an interdisciplinary way content with learners. To conduct this study was necessary a literature with readings that address the issue in question. In addition, the survey was extended to the field, making a research on site at the College Evangelical Leôncio José Santana, where with students and teachers interviews were conducted and developed an educational project aiming to directly observe the contributions of comics in the classroom. It was concluded that the topic to be interesting and suggesting improvements to the teaching of the Portuguese language and other school subjects, should be further addressed in other academic works, in search of greater contributions to education and content learning various disciplines of elementary school." -- A book about using Brazilian comics in education. -- Call no.: LB1044.9.C59 M63 2019 Morais, Francineide Costa.

During this decade, Gruenwald wrote some of the most essential stories in Captain America's history and guided the comic through an eventful period of both world history and comic book history. This book dissects the influence of the world at large on Gruenwald's stories and the subsequent influence of Gruenwald's work on the world of comics. The book's ten chapters discuss a wide range of topics including the generational tensions inherent in a comic about a G.I. Generation hero, written by a baby boomer, for an audience of Gen Xers; the enduring threat of the Red Skull and the never-ending aura of World War II; the rising popularity of vigilante characters during the '90s; and how Captain America fits into the war on drugs and its "just say no" mentality. Set against the declining American patriotism of the 1980s and 1990s, this book places special emphasis on the symbolism of the most American of superheroes." -- A book about Mark Gruenwald, Captain America, and superhero comic books. -- Call no.: PN6728.C26 Z5 O4 2021 Olsen, Jason, 1974- ----------------------------------------------------- Dragon's Breath and Other True Stories : Comics / by MariNaomi. -- Minneapolis, MN : 2D Cloud/Uncivilized Books, 2014. -- 381 p. : ill. ; 23 cm. -- "Dragon's Breath and Other True Stories collects nearly 400 pages of comics by MariNaomi, many of which first appeared on TheRumpus.net as the series Smoke In Your Eyes." -- Contents: Dragon's breath ; Down the rabbit hole ; Leaving home ; Unreasonable demands, part 1 ; He sees you when you're sleeping ; The quits ; Mr. Vanoni ; Independence Day ; Gone ; When you're young ; Kick-ass boots ; Song in my head ; Inner beauty ; What's new, pussycat? ; The writer ; The rebound ; Unreasonable demands, part 2 ; A day at the shooting range ; Sleep deprived ; A stranger's house ; Coalinga ; Whole ; Heartthrobs ; In case of emergency ; The proposal ; Have a nice day ; For the greater good ; The evil ; Happy place. -- Autobiographical genre. -- Call no.: PN6727.M2425 D7 2014 ----------------------------------------------------- Sacagawea : Journey into the West / Jessica Gunderson. -- Capstone Press, 2006. -- 32 p. : ill. ; 22 cm. -- (Graphic Library.

Eight strangers looking for enlightenment from an ancient spiritual teacher are trapped in a cave high in the mountains on their way to his temple. One of his acolytes directs them to each tell a story that the group can learn from as they wait out the horrible snowstorm that rages outside the cave's entrance. One by one the travelers each share a story that, unbeknownst to them, is actually a morality tale representing one of the aspects of final enlightenment as taught in Buddhism. As the wind howls through the night, they tell symbolic stories of horror, dystopia, high adventure, cyberpunk, and urban fantasy. Each story is a spoke on the symbolic Dharma wheel, and each interlocking tale gets the travelers closer to their true destiny--unveiling the future of the entire human race. This remarkable collection borrows heavily from the traditions of pop-culture morality anthology series such as The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, Night Gallery, Lovecraft Country, and the publications of E.C. Comics. Heavily influenced by the science fiction pulps of the 1950s and 1960s, this brilliant collection remixes classic social narratives such as Plato's Allegory of the Cave, Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, and The Arabian Nights, through an edgy, contemporary, yet spiritually centered lens. In The Eightfold Path, our destinies lie in heeding the lessons given in every one of these entrancing tales." -- Science fiction and fantasy genres. -- Call no.: PN6727.M679 E35 2022 Barnes, Steven, 1952- Johnson, Charles, 1948- Enlightenment (Buddhism) ----------------------------------------------------- Shuri : Defender of Wakanda / written by Pamela Afram. -- New York : DK Publishing, 2022. -- 48 p. : col. ill. ; 24 cm. -- (Dorling Kindersley Readers. 2, Beginning to read alone) -- Includes index. -- Summary (from amazon.com via OCLC): "Meet Princess Shuri, the clever scientist behind Wakanda's remarkable technology.

Scientist. Princess. All around cooler person than her pain-in-the-butt big brother, T'Challa. Shuri knows she could do so much more to help Wakanda, but everyone is obsessed with the prince because he's the next Black Panther. That is, until Soul Washing Day, one of the most important rituals of Wakandan society. When an argument between T'Challa and Shuri leads to one of Shuri's inventions accidentally destroying the sacred ceremony site, chaos reigns instead of prosperity. Suddenly the people of Wakanda, including her mother the queen, are becoming sick! Could this be a curse from the ancestors? Desperate to save her mother, Shuri dives into research and finds an answer hidden deep in an ancient children's myth. It may be nothing more than a fantasy, but with the sickness spreading each day, the young princess must trust her instincts and travel deep into the mysterious Heartlands to save her family and her kingdom. -- Superhero genre. -- Call no.: PN6728.B544 I5 2022 ----------------------------------------------------- Mamaland Comics. issue #1. -- Kenya? : Milome Comics, 2020. -- 24 p. : col. ill. ; 26 cm. -- Cover title: Mamaland. -- "Executive producer: Felix Milome." -- "In the ancient African kingdom of Tseti lives Kerma, a young lady who wishes she was just a regular teenager.

More than just escapist entertainment, comics offer a popular yet complicated vision of the American political tableau. Politics in the Gutters considers the political myths, moments, and mimeses, in comic books-from nonfiction to science fiction, superhero to supernatural, serious to satirical, golden age to present day-to consider how they represent, re-present, underpin, and/or undermine ideas and ideals about American electoral politics." -- Call no.: PN6714.K56 2021 ----------------------------------------------------- Wirres Haar und rotes Halstuch : Beethovens Bild im Manga / herausgegeben von Ingrid Bodsch ; konzipiert und bearbeitet von Kazuko Ozawa und Matthias Wendt ; mit Beiträgen von Acato Ao, Kim Sung-hwa, Kazuko Ozawa, Monika Schmitz-Emans, Tsuchida Eizaburo, Matthias Wendt. -- Bonn : Verlag Stadtmuseum Bonn, 2020. -- 441 p. : col. ill. ; 34 cm. -- Includes index. -- A book about Beethoven in Japanese comics. -- Call no.: ML410.B4 W5 2020 Beethoven, Ludwig van, 1770-1827.

The comic book and its television adaptation have reinvented the zombie horror story, transforming it from cult curiosity and parody to mainstream popularity and critical acclaim. In some ways, this would be enough to justify this career-spanning collection of interviews. Yet Kirkman represents much more than this single comic book title. Kirkman's story is a fanboy's dream that begins with him financing his irreverent, independent comic book Battle Pope with credit cards. After writing major titles with Marvel comics (Spider-Man, Captain America, and X-Men), Kirkman rejected companies like DC and Marvel and publicly advocated for creator ownership as the future of the comics industry. As a partner at Image, Kirkman wrote not only The Walking Dead but also Invincible, a radical reinvention of the superhero genre.

Because literature and journalism deal differently with 'authorship' and 'author,' this work renegotiates these concepts. It analyzes the author's importance in comics journalism, especially concerning the verification and authentication of the production process. This study gives a broad and extensive overview of the various forms of contemporary comics journalism, and argues that authorship in comics journalism can only be adequately understood by considering the author both on the textual and extratextual level. By combining comics analyses with cultural, sociological, and literary studies approaches, this study introduces the 'comics journalistic pact,' which is an invisible agreement between author and reader, addressing issues of narration ('voice'), testimony ('face'), and journalistic engagement ('hands'). It categorizes comics journalism as a borderline genre between literature, culture, art, and journalism due to its interdisciplinary nature." -- A dissertation about documentary comics. -- Call no.: PN6714.S274 2021 ----------------------------------------------------- "Gute Laune ist ein Kriegsartikel" : deutsche und amerikanische Trickfilme, Comics und Cartoons als Mittel der Propaganda während des Zweiten Weltkrieges / Niels Schröder. -- Berlin : Be.bra Wissenschaft Verlag, 2020. -- 438 p. : ill.

Elles se sont terminées avec la mort d'Hergé en 1983, après la parution de vingt-trois albums, de Tintin au pays des Soviets à Tintin et les Picaros. Le travail d'Hergé fut considérable : sa documentation était très précise et aucun détail visible dans un album n'est jamais placé par hasard. Mais le lecteur les a-t-il remarqués? Tintin entre dans un cinéma à Shanghai : en existait-il à l'époque du Lotus Bleu? Dans quel album peut-on voir un tableau de Sisley? De quel événement historique réel Hergé s'est-il inspiré pour créer Le Sceptre d'Ottokar? Pourquoi la fusée du professeur Tournesol est-elle à damier rouge et blanc? Pourquoi l'épave de La Licorne n'aurait jamais dû être retrouvée?

Scourged and repressed on the one hand, yet co-opted and deployed as propaganda on the other, violent, sexist comic books were both vital expressions of American freedom and upsetting depictions of the American id.

Comic, mordant and irreverent, political cartoons often reveal more about the contemporary concerns of a world experiencing the Slump, rising nationalism and aggression than either official documents or the work of most journalists. Published in newspapers or magazines with a wide circulation, they 'made sense' to the ordinary reader. More than half a century on, that sense of immediate identification has been lost, and political cartoons of the period now need detailed explanation. Through this book, it is easy to trace the decay of hope in the 1920s through the fear of war in the early 1930s to the determination, at the decade's end, that Nazism and Fascism 'must be stopped'. These cartoons, intended for the man and woman 'in the street' in Europe, North America, the Soviet Union and Asia, mirror the changing attitudes and beliefs of those 'ordinary' people as nations shaped up for the Second World War. -- Shows and annotates cartoons about world politics and world leaders. -- Call no.: D727.D683 1991 Douglas, Roy, 1924-2020. ----------------------------------------------------- It's Life as I See It : Black Cartoonists in Chicago, 1940-1980 / essay by Charles Johnson ; afterword by Ronald Wimberly ; compiled and edited by Dan Nadel ; cover designed by Kerry James Marshall. -- New York : New York Review Books, 2021. -- 200 p. : ill. ; 26 cm. -- (New York Review Comics) -- Works by Tom Floyd, Grass Green, Seitu Hayden, Jay Jackson, Charles Johnson, Yaoundé Olu, Turtel Onli, Jackie Ormes, Morrie Turner. -- "Published in conjunction with the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, on the occasion of Chicago Comics: 1960s to Now, June 19-October 3, 2021. Curated by Dan Nadel." -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 194-195). -- Summary (from publisher via OCLC): "Between the 1940s and 1980s, Chicago's Black press--from The Chicago Defender to the Negro Digest to self-published pamphlets--was home to some of the best cartoonists in America. Kept out of the pages of white-owned newspapers, Black cartoonists found space to address the joys, the horrors, and the everyday realities of Black life in America. From Jay Jackson's anti-racist time travel adventure serial Bungleton Green, to Morrie Turner's radical mixed-race strip Dinky Fellas, to the Afrofuturist comics of Yaoundé Olu and Turtel Onli, to National Book Award-winning novelist Charles Johnson's blistering and deeply funny gag cartoons, this is work that has for far too long been excluded and overlooked.

Cultural historian Aldo J. Regalado asserts that the superhero seems a direct response to modernity, often fighting the interrelated processes of industrialization, urbanization, immigration, and capitalism that transformed the United States from the early nineteenth century to the present. Reeling from these exciting but rapid and destabilizing forces, Americans turned to heroic fiction as a means of explaining national and personal identities to themselves and to the world. In so doing, they created characters and stories that sometimes affirmed, but other times subverted conventional notions of race, class, gender, and nationalism." -- A book about superhero comic books. -- Call no.: PN6725.R42 B4 2015 ----------------------------------------------------- La Caricature en Suisse / Philippe Kaenel. -- Lausanne : Presses Polytechniques et Universitaires Romandes, 2018. -- 151 p. : ill.

The term refers to both a character type specifically, as well as commercial genres marketed to female audiences more generally. Through its diverse chapters this edited collection introduces the two main currents of shôjo research: on the one hand, historical investigations of Japan's modern girl culture and its representations, informed by Japanese-studies and gender-studies concerns; on the other hand, explorations of the transcultural performativity of shôjo as a crafted concept and affect-prone code, shaped by media studies, genre theory, and fan-culture research. While acknowledging that shôjo has mediated multiple discourses throughout the twentieth century, discourses on Japan and its modernity, consumption and consumerism, non-hegemonic gender, and also technology, this volume shifts the focus to shôjo mediations, stretching from media by and for actual girls, to shôjo as media. As a result, the Japan-derived concept, while still situated, begins to offer possibilities for broader conceptualizations of girlness within the contemporary global digital mediascape." -- The first quarter of this book focuses on manga, and the remainder extends the concept from it's manga inception. -- Call no.: GT2540.S54 2019 Berndt, Jaqueline, 1963- Nagaike, Kazumi.

(some col.) ; 23 cm. -- (Studies in European Comics and Graphic Novels ; 8) -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 347-379) and index. -- Summary (from back cover): "Postcolonialism and migration are major themes in contemporary French comics and have roots in the Algerian War (1954-62), anti-racist struggle, and mass migration to France. This volume studies comics from the formal dismantling of the French colonial empire in 1962 up to the present. French cartoonists of ethnic minority and immigrant heritage are a major focus, including Zeina Abirached (Lebanon), Yvan Alagbé (Benin), Baru (Italy), Enki Bilal (former Yugoslavia), Farid Boudjellal (Algeria and Armenia), José Jover (Spain), Larbi Mechkour (Algeria), and Roland Monpierre (Guadeloupe). The author analyses comics representing a gamut of perspectives on immigration and postcolonial ethnic minorities, ranging from staunch defense to violent rejection. Individual chapters are dedicated to specific artists, artistic collectives, comics, or themes, including an anti-racist comic strip serialised in Charlie Hebdo, undocumented migrants in comics, and racism in far-right comics." -- Call no.: PN6745.M34 P6 2020 ----------------------------------------------------- Shooting / Pedro Burgos. -- Latvia : Grafiskie Stâsti, 2022. -- 24 p. : col. ill. ; 15 cm. -- (Mini Kus! ; 104) -- Summary (from back cover): "Life is full of shooting moments.
