Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First time in comics Uncle Wiggily. (History of childrens comics) At the time of Dell Publishing's launch of 'Animal Comics' humorous animal stories were becoming popular, but it was the first comic book to specialize in that genre using comic book creations. The first issue was published in 1941, and the title ended with issue #30 in December 1947. Animal Comics is best known for the first appearance of the historic 'Pogo', drawn by Walt Kelly, which appeared in issue #1. The original story titled 'Albert Takes the Cake' introduces Pogo the possum and Albert the alligator. Also in the story is a young African-American boy named Bumbazine, who would soon be dropped, as Kelly found humor easier with just animals. Walt Kelly also produced other non-Pogo pages for Animal Comics and others who contributed to the title were Dan Noonan and John Stanley, who is now best known for his work on Little Lulu. In 1948 Walt Kelly was hired as a political cartoonist for the New York Star newspaper and decided to use his Pogo characters in the daily strip. This debuted on October 4, 1948. The paper folded very soon afterwards, but the strip survived and was syndicated by Post-Hall Syndicate, going national. The strip was designed to be read on many levels, so it could be enjoyed by young and old alike. The slapstick was designed for the younger audience and the puns and satire for the older generation. Pogo was the first comic book series to make a permanent transition to newspapers. It lasted 27 years and continued even after Walt Kelly's death until the last issue in July 20,1975. Amongst others George Ward and Henry Shikuma worked on the strip as Walt Kelly's assistants. The comic reprints from Escamilla Comics are reproduced from actual classic comics, and sometimes reflect the imperfection of books that are decades old.

Book excerpt: "In the original papers presented here, accomplished format and genre experts explore the problems and challenges of cataloging nine kinds of 'special' materials: films and videos; computer software; Spanish-language works; comic books; children's literature; serials; fine arts; music; and government documents. The approach is that each case is variously critical, practical, and creative, covering - as appropriate - descriptive and subject cataloging as well as classification and including numerous illustrations together with references to useful literature and other aids"--

Download or read book Comics through Time 4 volumes written by M. Keith Booker and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-10-28 with total page 2803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing especially on American comic books and graphic novels from the 1930s to the present, this massive four-volume work provides a colorful yet authoritative source on the entire history of the comics medium. Comics and graphic novels have recently become big business, serving as the inspiration for blockbuster Hollywood movies such as the Iron Man series of films and the hit television drama The Walking Dead. But comics have been popular throughout the 20th century despite the significant effects of the restrictions of the Comics Code in place from the 1950s through 1970s, which prohibited the depiction of zombies and use of the word "horror," among many other rules. Comics through Time: A History of Icons, Idols, and Ideas provides students and general readers a one-stop resource for researching topics, genres, works, and artists of comic books, comic strips, and graphic novels. The comprehensive and broad coverage of this set is organized chronologically by volume. Volume 1 covers 1960 and earlier; Volume 2 covers 1960–1980; Volume 3 covers 1980–1995; and Volume 4 covers 1995 to the present. The chronological divisions give readers a sense of the evolution of comics within the larger contexts of American culture and history. The alphabetically arranged entries in each volume address topics such as comics publishing, characters, imprints, genres, themes, titles, artists, writers, and more. While special attention is paid to American comics, the entries also include coverage of British, Japanese, and European comics that have influenced illustrated storytelling of the United States or are of special interest to American readers.

Download or read book War and Peas written by Jonathan Kunz & Elizabeth Pich and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hilarious, morbid, and sometimes oddly touching, War and Peas is among the best of the best in modern comics. You'll be laughing out loud." — Sarah Andersen, creator of Sarah's Scribbles "One of the most exciting and funniest webcomics in the world," — Bored Panda From the creators of the hugely popular Instagram comic War and Peas, this offbeat four-panel comic features a dark, fairy-tale aesthetic and a twist ending each time. War and Peas: Funny Comics for Dirty Lovers combine twisted humor with a beloved cast of characters including the grim reaper (seen here as an unintentionally lethal man of leisure), a robot in hopelessly in love with his scientist creator, and a promiscuous yet self-assured witch. Unlike most webcomic collections, this one tells a story using dozens of never-before-seen comics to chronicle the lives of several different characters and their follies during life, death, and their glorious reunions in the afterlife (and the after-afterlife).
