TIME, MEMORY, NOSTALGIA THE NINTH INTERNATIONAL GRAPHIC NOVEL AND COMICS CONFERENCE WEDNESDAY 27TH – FRIDAY 29TH JUNE 2018 BOURNEMOUTH UNIVERSITY, UK Retro – a looking to the past – is everywhere in contemporary culture. Cultural critics like Jameson argue that retro and nostalgia are symptoms of postmodernism – that we can pick and choose various items and cultural phenomena from different eras and place them together in a pastiche that means little and decontextualizes their historicity. However, as Bergson argues in Memory and Matter, the senses evoke memories, and popular culture artefacts like comics can bring the past to life in many ways. The smell and feel of old paper can trigger memories just as easily as revisiting an old haunt or hearing a piece of music from one’s youth. As fans and academics we often look to the past to tell us about the present. We may argue about the supposed ‘golden age’ of comics. Our collecting habits may even define our lifestyles and who we are. But nostalgia has its dark side and some regard this continuous looking to the past as a negative emotion in which we aim to restore a lost adolescence. In Mediated Nostalgia, Ryan Lizardi argues that the contemporary media fosters narcissistic nostalgia ‘to develop individualized pasts that are defined by idealized versions of beloved lost media texts’ (2). This argument suggests that fans are media dupes lost in a reverie of nostalgic melancholia; but is belied by the diverse responses of fandom to media texts. Moreover, ‘retro’ can be taken to imply an ironic appropriation.

  • Comic Art, Children's Literature, and the New Comics Studies
    360 Charles Hatfield Comic Art, Children’s Literature, and the New Comics Studies Charles Hatfield At Comic-Con International’s annual Eisner Awards ceremony in San Diego during July 2004, Pulitzer-winning author (and new-fledged comics creator) Michael Chabon gave a keynote speech about comic books and children. Speaking to the comic book community, Chabon declared victory in the struggle to elevate the comics medium and its reputation among adult readers, noting, “More adults are reading better comics than ever before” (“Greasy”). However, Chabon’s real subject, which he decried, was the medium’s abandonment of children; this action is fueled, he argued, by an arriviste’s sense of embarrassment over its origins. Chiding the industry for forgetting young readers, Chabon ended by envisioning a new sort of comics for children, “truly thrilling, honestly observed and remembered, richly imagined . [comics] about children” [Chabon’s italics] (“Greasy”). He issued a call to arms, urging the comic book industry to pass on the love of the medium and, as the adage goes, pay it forward. Despite its admonitory tone, Chabon’s speech earned a warm ovation, perhaps because his remarks distilled years’ worth of comic-book industry punditry. In fact, the gap between comic books and today’s children has long been a source of concern among professionals—certainly within the transatlantic, English-language comics business. Many creators, within and outside of the comic book-specialty market, have sought to bridge this gap: witness the sporadic touting of “all-ages,” which is the preferred euphe- mism for children’s, comics within comic book shops, or the presence in mainstream bookstores of such high-profile projects as Art Spiegelman and Françoise Mouly’s Little Lit series (launched in 2000 for HarperCollins).

I am extremely grateful to them all for allowing me to draw on their memories to piece together the complex and entertaining story of the various papers covered in this book. First and foremost I must thank the former staff members of Look and Learn and Fleetway Publications (later IPC Magazines) for making themselves available for long and often rambling interviews, including Bob Bartholomew, Keith Chapman, Doug Church, Philip Gorton, Sue Lamb, Stan Macdonald, Leonard Matthews, Roy MacAdorey, Maggie Meade-King, John Melhuish, Mike Moorcock, Gil Page, Colin Parker, Jack Parker, Frank S. Pepper, Noreen Pleavin, John Sanders and Jim Storrie. My thanks also to Oliver Frey, Wilf Hardy, Wendy Meadway, Roger Payne and Clive Uptton, for detailing their artistic exploits on the magazine. Jenny Marlowe, Ronan Morgan, June Vincent and Beryl Vuolo also deserve thanks for their help filling in details that would otherwise have escaped me. David Abbott and Paul Philips, both of IPC Media, Susan Gardner of the Guild of Aviation Artists and Morva White of The Bible Society were all helpful in locating information and contacts.

  • Comics and Graphic Novels Cambridge History of The
    Comics and Graphic Novels Cambridge History of the Book in Britain, Volume 7: the Twentieth Century and Beyond Mark Nixon Comics – the telling of stories by means of a sequence of pictures and, usually, words – were born in Britain in the late nineteenth century, with Ally Sloper’s Half-Holiday (Gilbert Dalziel, 1884) and subsequent imitators. These publications were a few pages long, unbound, and cheap – and intended for working-class adult readers. During the twentieth century, bound books of picture stories developed in Europe and North America, and by the end of the century had become a significant factor in British publishing and popular culture. However, British comics scholarship has been slow to develop, at least relative to continental European and North American comics scholarship, although specialist magazines such as The Comics Journal, Comics International and Book & Magazine Collector have featured articles on British comics, their publishers and creators. Towards the end of the twentieth century, the work of Martin Barker and Roger Sabin began to shed new light on certain aspects of the history of British comics, a baton now being taken up by a few scholars of British popular culture1, alongside a growing popular literature on British comics2. 1 For a recent overview, see Chapman, James British comics: a cultural history (London, 2011). 2 Perhaps the best example of this is Gravett, Paul and Stanbury, Peter Great British comics (London, 2006). By the beginning of the twentieth century, Harmsworth dominated the comics market they had entered in 1890 with Comic Cuts and Illustrated Chips. Their comics provided the template for the industry, of eight-page, tabloid-sized publications with a mixture of one-panel cartoons, picture strips and text stories, selling at 1/2d.

    State of the Mountain Lion A call to end the trophy hunting of America’s lion STATE OF THE MOUNTAIN LION 1 Front cover: A wild mountain lion in Montana. ImageBroker/ Alamy Stock Photo Abstract State of the Mountain Lion: A Call to End Trophy Hunting of America’s Lion details the current plight of mountain lions (Puma concolor)—who are also commonly known as cougars, catamounts and panthers—across the United States. This report provides a valuable resource to support the long term protection and conservation of mountain lions with never-before amalgamated materials, including: Geographic information system (GIS) maps that identify potential suitable habitat and optimal population sizes for mountain lions, by state A detailed legal review of mountain lion regulations in every U.S. state The report highlights major threats to the species, including rampant trophy hunting which kills thousands of mountain lions each year in the U.S., and reports on the tens of thousands legally killed over the past three decades. The HSUS’sState of the Mountain Lion delves into mountain lion biology, current state-management efforts and the majority public’s highly positive perceptions of this iconic species. The report dispels commonly held myths and provides valuable coexistence strategies for residents, recreationists and ranchers. Mountain lions, once the most common large mammal in North and South America, are restricted to breeding populations in only 16 states. The report details how they are managed in those jurisdictions, which includes the West, parts of the Midwest and Florida. State of the Mountain Lion provides important policy recommendations for decision Hollywood mountain makers to better protect mountain lions and conserve the species for lion.
