RUTGERS UNIVERSITY PRESS

Impossibly muscular men and voluptuous women parade around in revealing, skintight outfits, and their romantic and sexual entanglements are a key part of the ongoing drama. Such is the state of superhero comics and movies, a genre that has become one of our leading mythologies, conveying influential messages about gender, sexuality, and relationships. Love, Sex, Gender, and Superheroes examines a full range of superhero media, from comics to films to television to merchandising. With a keen eye for the genre's complex and internally contradictory mythology, comics scholar Jeffrey A. Brown considers its mixed messages. Superhero comics may reinforce sex roles with their litany of phallic musclemen and slinky femme fatales, but they also blur gender binaries with their emphasis on transformation and body swaps. Similarly, while most heroes have heterosexual love interests, the genre prioritizes homosocial bonding, and it both celebrates and condemns gendered and sexualized violence. With examples spanning from the Golden Ages of DC and Marvel comics up to recent works like the TV series The Boys, this study provides a comprehensive look at how superhero media shapes our perceptions of love, sex, and gender.

This oversized 12x12 inch hardcover features the crème de la crème of P. Craig Russell's black and white illustrations from the past 45-47 years-carefully chosen by the artist himself and presented in chronological order. The book also includes a number of all-new images that will be appearing in print for the very first time. Limited to only 500 copies that come personally signed and numbered by P. Craig Russell. P. CRAIG RUSSELL: 'In addition to a carefully curated collection of vintage illustrations, the book will include recent pieces that we've done for our crowdfunding adventures over the past few years, various commissions that were created as original art rewards. Also, many of the new black and white squares that I've done this year-I've just finished the 7th one-will be seen for the very first time. I haven't counted yet, but I would say that out of 101 drawings, a good 25-30% are pieces that haven't seen print before.' (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

WHITE OWL

The Beano is Britain's longest-running and best-loved comic. Since 1938 it has brought thrills and laughter to generation after generation of children, seeing the young and young-at-heart through World War II, the social changes of the 1950s and 60s and on into a new millennium. How has the comic evolved since its early days? How many of the classic characters and their stories do you remember? What are the important changes that have happened through the years, why have they happened and why has The Beano survived when all the other comics have folded? Every child in the UK since the 1950s has known Dennis the Menace, the Bash Street Kids, Minnie the Minx and Roger the Dodger, but how many know the writers and artists who created these iconic comic characters? How do they write the scripts week after week? Where did the inspiration come from? How did the artists come to work for this Great British institution? This is the story of the Beano Comic, told in the words of the people who made it, going back to the dark, harsh days of the 1930s and continuing through to the present day. A unique insight into the country's most beloved comic. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror Annullato/esaurito (Lateness)
