Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2023 Ray and Pat Browne Best Single Work by One or More Authors in Popular and American Culture, Popular and American Culture Association (PACA) / Popular Culture Association (PCA) 2023 Ray and Pat Browne Best Edited Reference/Primary Source Work in Popular Culture Award (Honorable Mention), Popular and American Culture Association (PACA) / Popular Culture Association (PCA) 2023 Peter C. Rollins Book Award, Southwest Texas Popular Culture and American Culture Associations (SWPACA) A revisionist history of women's pivotal roles as creators of and characters in comic books. The history of comics has centered almost exclusively on men. Comics historians largely describe the medium as one built by men telling tales about male protagonists, neglecting the many ways in which women fought for legitimacy on the page and in publishers’ studios. Despite this male-dominated focus, women played vital roles in the early history of comics. The story of how comic books were born and how they evolved changes dramatically when women like June Tarpé Mills and Lily Renée are placed at the center rather than at the margins of this history, and when characters such as the Black Cat, Patsy Walker, and Señorita Rio are analyzed. Comic Book Women offers a feminist history of the golden age of comics, revising our understanding of how numerous genres emerged and upending narratives of how male auteurs built their careers. Considering issues of race, gender, and sexuality, the authors examine crime, horror, jungle, romance, science fiction, superhero, and Western comics to unpack the cultural and industrial consequences of how women were represented across a wide range of titles by publishers like DC, Timely, Fiction House, and others. This revisionist history reclaims the forgotten work done by women in the comics industry and reinserts female creators and characters into the canon of comics history.

Book excerpt: SUPER DUCK --- THE COCKEYED WONDER Super Duck ---- he wasn't always a super hero, but the name stuck. He lasted for 94 issues, through the 40's, 50's and into the 60's, getting himself into one fix after another. Super Duck, like many of the hero animals of the day, had his share of sidekicks and cohorts, including girlfriend Uwanna, his rival Dapper, and his nephew Fauntleroy - all making his life better and worse at the same time! COO COO COMICS #36It was the Golden Age of Comics, the 1940's. Every week new publications would warp the minds of our youth, destroy (or save, depending on your point of view) the culture of America, and drain hard-earned dimes from the pockets of young boys and girls. A glorious time! Funny animals have been a mainstay of comics since they first began, and this issue of COO COO COMICS #36 is a great example of Golden Age fun, not seen in print for two generations. We laugh at the animals not because they are different than we are, but because they reflect what we say and do so well... DOTTIE DRIPPLE COMICS #14Horace and Dottie Dripple, and the whole Dripple family, lasted for a long time, despite how much they (or maybe because they) so closely resembled another, more famous, family with an attractive Blonde(ie) wife, the bumbling (pun intended) husband, and even the expressive dog. The Dripples were a little more combative, maybe a little more PG than G-rated, and that gave them the energy they needed to thrive during the golden age of comics! The comic reprints from Calumet History and Hobby are reproduced from actual classic comics, and sometimes reflect the imperfection of books that are decades old. These books are constantly updated with the best version available - if you are EVER unhappy with the experience or quality of a book, return the book to us to exchange for another title or the upgrade as new files become available.

Book Gothic in Comics and Graphic Novels

Download or read book Gothic in Comics and Graphic Novels written by Julia Round and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-02-07 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the connections between comics and Gothic from four different angles: historical, formal, cultural and textual. It identifies structures, styles and themes drawn from literary gothic traditions and discusses their presence in British and American comics today, with particular attention to the DC Vertigo imprint. Part One offers an historical approach to British and American comics and Gothic, summarizing the development of both their creative content and critical models, and discussing censorship, allusion and self-awareness. Part Two brings together some of the gothic narrative strategies of comics and reinterprets critical approaches to the comics medium, arguing for an holistic model based around the symbols of the crypt, the spectre and the archive. Part Three then combines cultural and textual analysis, discussing the communities that have built up around comics and gothic artifacts and concluding with case studies of two of the most famous gothic archetypes in comics: the vampire and the zombie.

Book EC Comics

    Book Details:
  • Author : Qiana Whitted
  • Publisher : Rutgers University Press
  • Release : 2019-03-08
  • ISBN : 0813566312
  • Pages : 197 pages

Download or read book EC Comics written by Qiana Whitted and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-08 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entertaining Comics Group (EC Comics) is perhaps best-known today for lurid horror comics like Tales from the Crypt and for a publication that long outlived the company’s other titles, Mad magazine. But during its heyday in the early 1950s, EC was also an early innovator in another genre of comics: the so-called “preachies,” socially conscious stories that boldly challenged the conservatism and conformity of Eisenhower-era America. EC Comics examines a selection of these works—sensationally-titled comics such as “Hate!,” “The Guilty!,” and “Judgment Day!”—and explores how they grappled with the civil rights struggle, antisemitism, and other forms of prejudice in America. Putting these socially aware stories into conversation with EC’s better-known horror stories, Qiana Whitted discovers surprising similarities between their narrative, aesthetic, and marketing strategies. She also recounts the controversy that these stories inspired and the central role they played in congressional hearings about offensive content in comics. The first serious critical study of EC’s social issues comics, this book will give readers a greater appreciation of their legacy. They not only served to inspire future comics creators, but also introduced a generation of young readers to provocative ideas and progressive ideals that pointed the way to a better America.
