Twelve-Cent Archie - New Edition With Full Color Illustrations

de Bart Beaty

~~52,93€~~ 42,34€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div> <div>For over seventy-five years, Archie and the gang at Riverdale High have been America’s most iconic teenagers, delighting generations of readers with their never-ending exploits. But despite their ubiquity, Archie comics have been relatively ignored by scholars—until now.<br> <br> <i>Twelve-Cent Archie</i> is not only the first scholarly study of the Archie comic, it is an innovative creative work in its own right. Inspired by Archie’s own concise storytelling format, renowned comics scholar Bart Beaty divides the book into a hundred short chapters, each devoted to a different aspect of the <i>Archie</i> comics. Fans of the comics will be thrilled to read in-depth examinations of their favorite characters and motifs, including individual chapters devoted to Jughead’s hat and Archie’s sweater-vest. But the book also has plenty to interest newcomers to Riverdale, as it recounts the behind-the-scenes history of the comics and analyzes how Archie helped shape our images of the American teenager.<br> <br> As he employs a wide range of theoretical and methodological approaches, Beaty reveals that the Archie comics themselves were far more eclectic, creative, and self-aware than most critics recognize. Equally comfortable considering everything from the representation of racial diversity to the semiotics of Veronica’s haircut, <i>Twelve-Cent Archie</i> gives a fresh appreciation for America’s most endearing group of teenagers.</div> </div>

Frank Miller'S Daredevil And The Ends Of Heroism

de Paul Young

~~52,93€~~ 42,34€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div><b>2017 EISNER AWARD NOMINEE for Best Academic/Scholarly Work</b><br> <br> In the late 1970s and early 1980s, writer-artist Frank Miller turned <i>Daredevil</i> from a tepid-selling comic into an industry-wide success story, doubling its sales within three years. Lawyer by day and costumed vigilante by night, the character of Daredevil was the perfect vehicle for the explorations of heroic ideals and violence that would come to define Miller’s work. </div> <div> </div> <div><i>Frank Miller’s Daredevil and the Ends of Heroism</i> is both a rigorous study of Miller’s artistic influences and innovations and a reflection on how his visionary work on <i>Daredevil</i> impacted generations of comics publishers, creators, and fans. Paul Young explores the accomplishments of Miller the writer, who fused hardboiled crime stories with superhero comics, while reimagining Kingpin (a classic Spider-Man nemesis), recuperating the half-baked villain Bullseye, and inventing a completely new kind of <i>Daredevil</i> villain in Elektra. Yet, he also offers a vivid appreciation of the indelible panels drawn by Miller the artist, taking a fresh look at his distinctive page layouts and lines. </div> <div> </div> <div>A childhood fan of Miller’s <i>Daredevil</i>, Young takes readers on a personal journey as he seeks to reconcile his love for the comic with his distaste for the fascistic overtones of Miller’s controversial later work. What he finds will resonate not only with Daredevil fans, but with anyone who has contemplated what it means to be a hero in a heartless world. </div> <div> </div> <div>Other titles in the Comics Culture series include <i>Twelve-Cent Archie</i>, <i>Wonder Woman: Bondage and Feminism in the Marston/Peter Comics</i>, <i>1941-1948</i>, and <i>Considering Watchmen: </i><i>Poetics, Property, Politics</i>.</div> <div> </div>

Superman - The Persistence Of An American Icon

de Ian Gordon

~~52,93€~~ 42,34€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div> <div>After debuting in 1938, Superman soon became an American icon. But why has he maintained his iconic status for nearly 80 years? And how can he still be an American icon when the country itself has undergone so much change?<br> <br> <i>Superman: Persistence of an American Icon</i> examines the many iterations of the character in comic books, comic strips, radio series, movie serials, feature films, television shows, animation, toys, and collectibles over the past eight decades. Demonstrating how Superman’s iconic popularity cannot be attributed to any single creator or text, comics expert Ian Gordon embarks on a deeper consideration of cultural mythmaking as a collective and dynamic process. He also outlines the often contentious relationships between the various parties who have contributed to the Superman mythos, including corporate executives, comics writers, artists, nostalgic commentators, and collectors. <br> <br> Armed with an encyclopedic knowledge of Superman’s appearances in comics and other media, Gordon also digs into comics archives to reveal the prominent role that fans have played in remembering, interpreting, and reimagining Superman’s iconography. Gordon considers how comics, film, and TV producers have taken advantage of fan engagement and nostalgia when selling Superman products. Investigating a character who is equally an icon of American culture, fan culture, and consumer culture, <i>Superman</i> thus offers a provocative analysis of mythmaking in the modern era.<br> <br> </div> </div>
