SDSU Template, Version 11.1 RECLAIMING SPACE: HOW WOMEN ARE USING AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL COMICS TO RESIST MICROAGGRESSIONS WITHIN THE COMIC BOOK FAN COMMUNITY _______________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of San Diego State University _______________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Women's Studies _______________ by Lorena Gonzalez Summer 2015 iii Copyright © 2015 by Lorena Gonzalez All Rights Reserved iv DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to all of those who supported me through this process. Additionally, I dedicate this thesis to Noelle Stevenson, Paige Hall, and Meghan Lovell for inspiring me and for sharing their experiences and art with the world. v ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Reclaiming Space: How Women are Using Autobiogrpahical Comics to Resist Microaggressions Within the Comic Book Fan Community by Lorena Gonzalez Master of Arts in Women's Studies San Diego State University, 2015 This thesis is an examination of the spaces available to comic book fans, the sexist experiences women face in these spaces, and the use of autobiographical webcomics as a way to share these stories online. I examine these spaces and webcomics with an intersectional approach, focusing on gender specifically, but also class and size. The primary objective is to show how these webcomics are one method of storytelling being utilized to bring attention to and resist the gender microaggressions women face within the comic book fan community. My research is significant because it contributes to the scholarship on fan cultures built around comic books by focusing on the experiences of women. It also contributes to the literature on the history of feminist art by analyzing contemporary autobiographical webcomics. The use of the Internet also adds to the research about girl and women focused spaces, since these webcomics were published online due to the fact that many female comic book fans are denied a space in comic book stores and comic book conventions. Reclaiming Space is organized into five distinct chapters. Chapter one is an introductory chapter that provides an overview of my own reasons for conducting this research. It also outlines the purpose of my research and my main research questions: Why do women turn to the Internet versus other spaces available for comic book fans? How do women share their experiences with others and what are the benefits of doing so? Chapter two provides a history of the current literature relevant to this research. It will focus on the work done about fan cultures, the history of feminist art, and the importance of girl and women focused spaces. Chapter three provides an overview of comic book stores and comic book conventions, with a focus on the sexist treatment women face in these spaces. Chapter four is an examination of the webcomics created by Noelle Stevenson, Paige Hall, and Meghan Lovell and an examination of the gender microaggressions women experience as fans. My final chapter summarizes my findings and presents possible directions this research can be taken in the future. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE ABSTRACT ...............................................................................................................................v LIST OF FIGURES ............................................................................................................... viii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ..................................................................................................... ix CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION .........................................................................................................1 Research Questions And Theoretical Foundations ..................................................2 Identity And Self-Reflexivity ..................................................................................6 Historical Background .............................................................................................9 Chapter Organization .............................................................................................10 2 LITERATURE REVIEW ............................................................................................12 Fan Culture.............................................................................................................13 Sexist Treatment of Female Fans ...........................................................................15 Feminist Artists and Their Art ...............................................................................17 A Brief History of Women’s Autobiographical Comics .......................................21 Girl Focused and Women Focused Spaces ............................................................23 Girl Focused And Woman Focused Spaces on the Internet ..................................26 Conclusion .............................................................................................................28 3 COMIC BOOK FAN SPACES ...................................................................................29 Comic Book Stores ................................................................................................30 Comic Book Conventions ......................................................................................35 The Internet ............................................................................................................39 Sharing Stories Through Art ..................................................................................42 4 AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL WEBCOMICS ...................................................................45 Background on Autobiographical Comics .............................................................45 Noelle Stevenson ...................................................................................................48 vii Paige Hall ...............................................................................................................54 Meghan Lovell .......................................................................................................58 Community Reaction .............................................................................................61 Conclusion .............................................................................................................62 5 CONCLUSION ............................................................................................................64 BIBLIOGRAPHY ....................................................................................................................67 APPENDIX COLLECTION OF FIGURES ...........................................................................................72 viii LIST OF FIGURES PAGE Figure 1.

Comic books are able to transport readers to new worlds and different times, bringing the extraordinary to our own ordinary world. Indeed, as documented by several scholars, like Roger Sabin and Trina Robbins, comic books have played a significant role within U.S. society since they were first mass marketed in the 1940s. While comic books have always played a role in popular culture since then, the release of Iron Man in 2008 and the creation of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, along with other comic book movies, helped solidify their spot in mainstream popular culture. With the continued expansion of these films, as well as recent television shows, like Flash, the fan culture surrounding the original material has also been pushed to the forefront. For example, San Diego Comic-Con and other similar comic book conventions have become exclusive events that sell out within an hour, with people around the world attempting to purchase tickets to attend (Weisberg). It is safe to say that we have entered a time when popular culture is being dominated by comic books and their various franchises. With the eruption of this material into mainstream

  • Women's Experimental Autobiography from Counterculture Comics to Transmedia Storytelling: Staging Encounters Across Time, Space, and Medium
    Women's Experimental Autobiography from Counterculture Comics to Transmedia Storytelling: Staging Encounters Across Time, Space, and Medium Dissertation Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Ohio State University Alexandra Mary Jenkins, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Jared Gardner, Advisor Sean O’Sullivan Robyn Warhol Copyright by Alexandra Mary Jenkins 2014 Abstract Feminist activism in the United States and Europe during the 1960s and 1970s harnessed radical social thought and used innovative expressive forms in order to disrupt the “grand perspective” espoused by men in every field (Adorno 206). Feminist student activists often put their own female bodies on display to disrupt the disembodied “objective” thinking that still seemed to dominate the academy. The philosopher Theodor Adorno responded to one such action, the “bared breasts incident,” carried out by his radical students in Germany in 1969, in an essay, “Marginalia to Theory and Praxis.” In that essay, he defends himself against the students’ claim that he proved his lack of relevance to contemporary students when he failed to respond to the spectacle of their liberated bodies. He acknowledged that the protest movements seemed to offer thoughtful people a way “out of their self-isolation,” but ultimately, to replace philosophy with bodily spectacle would mean to miss the “infinitely progressive aspect of the separation of theory and praxis” (259, 266). Lisa Yun Lee argues that this separation continues to animate contemporary feminist debates, and that it is worth returning to Adorno’s reasoning, if we wish to understand women’s particular modes of theoretical ii insight in conversation with “grand perspectives” on cultural theory in the twenty-first century.

  • Text and Image in Translation
    CLEaR, 2016, 3(2), ISSN 2453 - 7128 DOI: 10.1515/clear - 2016 - 0013 Text and Image in T ranslation Milena Yablonsky Pedagogical University of Cracow, Poland [email protected] Abstract The primary objective of the following paper is t he analysis of selected issues related to the translation of comic books. The paper aims at investigating the relationships between the text and the image and their implications in the process of translation. It reflects on the status of the translation of comics/graphic novels - a still largely unexp loited area within Translation Studies and briefly presents a definition and specificity of the genre. Moreover, it discusses Jakobson’s (1971) tripartite distinction into interlinguistic, intralinguistic and intersemiotic translation. The paper concludes with the analysis of certain issues associated with the Polish translation of V like Vendetta by Alan Moore, a text that is copious with intertextual and cultural references. Keywords: graphic novel, comics, V like Vendetta , Jakobson, constrained translat ion, intertextuality Introduction The translation of comic books still occupies a rather unexploited area within the discipline of Translation Studies, maybe due to the fact that it “might be perceived as a field of l esser interest” (Zanettin 273) and comics are usually regarded as an artistic form of a lower status. In Dictionary of Translation Studies by Shuttleworth and Cowie there is no t a single entry on comics. They refer to them only when they explain the term “multi - medial texts” ( 109 - 1 10) as: “ . The multi - medial category consists of texts in which the ver bal content is supplemented by elements in other media; however, all such texts will also simultaneously belong to one of the other, main text - type .

Partha Bhattacharjee & Priyanka Tripathi Department of Humanties and Social Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology Patna, India. Correspondence: E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 2, 2018 Accepted: September 20, 2018 Online Published: September 23, 2018 doi:10.5430/wjel.v8n2p37 URL: https://doi.org/10.5430/wjel.v8n2p37 Abstract Memory is an important tool in Lynda Barry’s One! Hundred! Demons! (2002) as she reconnoitres in non-linear fragments the personal trauma she faced while she was growing up. Layered into nineteen disjointed chapters, Barry’s graphic narrative is an amalgamation of images, collages and photographs, often following the pattern of a scrapbook style that justifies not only the events drawn in her narrative but also the motive of visual rhetoric in comics where visual images communicate and concretize meaning. Initially published as web comics (slate.com), each chapter consists of hand-painted vignettes of multifarious themes which are directly or indirectly linked to Barry’s life, covering from her childhood to adulthood. In the backdrop of these tools, techniques of visual rhetoric the objective of this paper is to investigate the form of the graphic narrative, the visual language employed in order to explore the traumatised childhood, memory and truth-telling in comics. Keywords: Trauma, Memory, Collage, Visual Language 1.

  • English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada
    Drawing on the Margins of History: English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada by Kevin Ziegler A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Kevin Ziegler 2013 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This study analyzes the techniques that Canadian comics life writers develop to construct personal histories. I examine a broad selection of texts including graphic autobiography, biography, memoir, and diary in order to argue that writers and readers can, through these graphic narratives, engage with an eclectic and eccentric understanding of Canadian historical subjects. Contemporary Canadian comics are important for Canadian literature and life writing because they acknowledge the importance of contemporary urban and marginal subcultures and function as representations of people who occasionally experience economic scarcity. I focus on stories of “ordinary” people because their stories have often been excluded from accounts of Canadian public life and cultural history. Following the example of Barbara Godard, Heather Murray, and Roxanne Rimstead, I re- evaluate Canadian literatures by considering the importance of marginal literary products. Canadian comics authors rarely construct narratives about representative figures standing in place of and speaking for a broad community; instead, they create what Murray calls “history with a human face . the face of the daily, the ordinary” (“Literary History as Microhistory” 411).
