MC FARLAND & COMPANY INC.

Marvel Comics has a tradition of addressing relevant real-life issues facing the American public. With the publication of Civil War (2006-2007), they focused on contemporary anxieties such as terrorism and threats to privacy and other civil liberties. This collection of essays explores the Civil War series and its tie-in titles from the perspectives of history, political science, sociology, psychology, literary criticism, law, philosophy and education. The contributors provide a close reading of the series' main theme - the appropriate balance between freedom and security - and discuss how that balance affects citizenship, race, gender and identity construction in 21st-century America.

Ed Brubaker has emerged as one of the most popular, significant figures in art comics since the 1990s. Most famous as the man who killed Captain America in 2007, Brubaker's work on company-owned properties such as Batman and Captain America and creator-owned series like Criminal and Fatale live up to the usual expectations for the superhero and crime genres. Brubaker layers his stories with a keen self-awareness, applying his expansive knowledge of American comic book history to invigorate his work and challenge the dividing line between popular entertainment and high art. This collection of interviews explores his work, drawing upon the entire length of the award-winning Brubaker's career. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

Chris Murray reveals the largely unknown and rather surprising history of the British superhero. It is often thought that Britain did not have its own superheroes, yet Murray demonstrates that there were a great many in Britain and that they were often used as a way to comment on the relationship between Britain and America. Sometimes they emulated the style of American comics, but they also frequently became sites of resistance to perceived American political and cultural hegemony, drawing upon satire and parody as a means of critique.

Dick Briefer's Frankenstein for Prize Comics is widely regarded as being America's first ongoing horror series. Indeed, it was Briefer's work that probably caused the creature to be actually named as Frankenstein instead of the nameless monstrosity from Shelley's novel. Splitting the stories between two stools - humor and horror - Briefer's tales are absorbing and unsettling in equal parts. Some of the humorous material has already been reprinted, though not necessarily in order nor in total. Until now! Collects issues #6-10, published January/February to November/December 1947.

UNDERWOOD BOOKS

edited by Steve Brodner Based on the 2008 Society of Illustrators' exhibit 'Artists Against the War,' this book of the same name draws from the vibrant history of graphic protest to demonstrate the many ways that illustrators - in editorial cartoons, comics, magazine illustrations, and elsewhere - have reflected on the representations and misrepresentations of war, especially the war in Iraq. Works by Ralph Steadman, Norman Rockwell, Wendy Popp, Nathan Fox, Burt Silverman, Guy Billout, and other renowned illustrators not only bridge the gap between high art and illustration, they testify to the ability of images to examine complex issues in a way that connects with broad numbers of people.

CONTINUUM

(W) Matthew J. Costello The Marvel superheroes that came to dominate the comic book industry for most of the last five decades were born under the potential mushroom cloud of nuclear war that was a cornerstone of the four-decade division of the world between the United States and the Soviet Union. These stories were consciously set in this world and reflect the changing culture of Cold War (and post-Cold War) America. Like other forms of popular entertainment, comic books tend to reflect and comment upon cultural trends. This groundbreaking new study focuses on a handful of titles that specifically involve political and socio-economic codes, including Captain America, the Invincible Iron Man, Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD, and the Incredible Hulk to reveal how the American self was transformed during the Cold War and after.

Kerry D. Soper reminds us of The Far Side's groundbreaking qualities and cultural significance in Gary Larson and The Far Side. In the 1980s, Gary Larson (b. 1950) shook up a staid comics page by introducing a set of aesthetic devices, comedic tones, and philosophical frames that challenged and delighted many readers, even while upsetting and confusing others. His irreverent, single panels served as an alternative reality to the tame comedy of the family-friendly newspaper comics page, as well as the pervasive, button-down consumerism and conformity of the Reagan era.
