  • Comics and War

    Comics and War

    Representations of war Comics and War Mathieu JESTIN Bettina SEVERIN-BARBOUTIE ABSTRACT Recounting war has always played a role in European comics, whether as an instrument of propaganda, heroisation or denunciation. But it is only in recent decades that the number of stories about war has proliferated, that the range of subjects, spaces treated and perspectives has increased, and that the circulation of stories across Europe has become more pronounced. For this reason, comic books feed into a shared collection of popular narratives of war just as they fuel anti-war representations. "“Everyone Kaputt. The First World War in Comic Books.” Source: with the kind permission of Barbara Zimmermann. " In Europe, there is growing public interest in what is known in France as the ‘ninth art’. The publishing of comic books and graphic novels is steadily increasing, including a growing number which deal with historical subjects; comic book festivals are increasing in number and the audience is becoming larger and more diverse. Contrary to received ideas, the comic is no longer merely ‘an entertainment product’; it is part of culture in its own right, and a valid field of academic research. These phenomena suggest that the comic, even if it is yet to gain full recognition in all European societies, at least meets with less reticence than it faced in the second half of the twentieth century. It has evolved from an object arousing suspicion, even rejection, into a medium which has gained wide recognition in contemporary European societies. War illustrated: themes and messages As in other media in European popular culture, war has always been a favourite subject in comics, whether at the heart of the narrative or in the background.

    En el cómic nadie puede oír tus gritos: a propósito de las adaptaciones del cine al cómic 25 EN EL CÓMIC NADIE PUEDE OÍR TUS GRITOS: A PROPÓSITO DE LAS ADAPTACIONES DEL CINE AL CÓMIC1 Eduard BAILE LÓPEZ Dept. de Filologia Catalana-Aula de Còmic (Universitat d’Alacant) RESUMEN En este artículo se propone un acercamiento a las adaptaciones del cine al cómic, a menudo dejadas de lado en comparación con el fenómeno inverso, más habitual y de mayor impacto mediático. Ciertamente, el camino que lleva del celuloide a las viñetas suele estar plagado de obras olvidables, a menudo fruto tan solo de intereses publicitarios, pero pensamos que, bajo una premisa intermedial, se puede proponer un compendio breve de ejemplos merecedores de análisis. Así pues, queremos presentar una propuesta de diez ítems que se constituyen como una suerte de canon artístico expuesto al debate. Posteriormente, una de las obras escogidas, Alien: The Illustrated Story (1979), será objeto específico de reflexión como ítem modélico. Palabras clave: cómic, cine, adaptación, intermedialidad. 1. LOS CAMINOS QUE CONDUCEN A LAS ADAPTACIONES (EN CÓMIC) SON INESCRUTABLES La valoración y la conveniencia de adaptar una obra de un medio a otro ha sido, a menudo, un tema controvertido, bien por juicios apriorísticos de muy dudosa profundidad respecto a las cualidades supuestamente inherentes a cada arte (abandonemos ya el debate sobre la alta y la baja cultura) o bien, en un plano de crítica intelectual más honesta, por las dificultades de traslación si fuera la circunstancia de que uno de los ítems estuviera 1 La elaboración de este artículo se integra dentro del proyecto europeo Investigation on Comics and Graphic Novels in the Iberian Cultural Area (CA19119-iCOn-MICS) y de la red de docencia universitaria Coneixement del cànon artístic del còmic a les aules universitàries: possibilitats didàctiques.
