See details for description of any imperfections. Absolutely marvelous. Blew me away. Not your garden variety comic to be sure. I had heard about through a series of odd encounters with separate persons and after painstaking research and backchecking I somewhat reluctantly decided it was worth taking a peak. Did I ever get a surprise? Yes, yes I did. I recieved it one afternoon and immediately dug in. I had a busy schedule that day, but it all got put on hold. I was engrossed to say the least. I made my way through The Whole Shebang in a matter of less than two days and it is no small volume of work. It does go by fast though. Too fast. When you get done, it feels like you just started until you remember that you have been reading all night. I guess that is an indication of a job well done. I am not a big time graphic novel reader so it should come as no surprise that it ranks near the top of my list, Scud: The Whole Shebang also since as I am not a big time graphic novel reader, it should be Scud: The Whole Shebang saying something that I bothered to give it a chance at all. My expectations were low, but after I enjoyed Watchmen so much, I realized that it is a whole genre I have neglected that may have some merit after all. Turns out it does. The story is one of those that starts out more less like you might expect it to after seeing the front cover, which, all in all would have probably been pretty good if it kept going at that pace, but it doesn't. It is one that as the plot thickens, it also deepens opening up into an unprecedented level of confusion of absurdity and confusion. Yeah, it was weird and unnecessarily convoluted, but that is exactly the kind of thing that makes these stories so fun. Sure it would be okay if were not this extreme, but Scud: The Whole Shebang so much more entertaining that way. Besides we have seen the Scud: The Whole Shebang more professional standards and protocol, I myself am more interested in seeing that broken. Scud manages to do that in a fun, interesting, not necessarily tasteful manner, but that is okay because of just how flipping cool it is. You will get your money's worth here folks. I guarantee it.

    Aesthetics, Taste, and the Mind-Body Problem in American Independent Comics

    PAPER TOWER: AESTHETICS, TASTE, AND THE MIND-BODY PROBLEM IN AMERICAN INDEPENDENT COMICS William Timothy Jones A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2014 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Esther Clinton © 2014 William Timothy Jones All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Comics studies, as a relatively new field, is still building a canon. However, its criteria for canon-building has been modeled largely after modernist ideas about formal complexity and criteria for disinterested, detached, “objective” aesthetic judgment derived from one of the major philosophical debates in Western thought: the mind-body problem. This thesis analyzes two American independent comics in order to dissect the aspects of a comic work that allow it to be categorized as “art” in the canonical sense. Chris Ware’s Building Stories is a sprawling, Byzantine comic that exhibits characteristically modernist ideas about the subordination of the body to the mind and art’s relationship to mass culture. Rob Schrab’s Scud: The Disposable Assassin provides a counterpoint to Building Stories in its action-heavy stylistic approach, developing ideas about the merging of the mind and the body and the artistic and the commercial. Ultimately, this thesis advocates for a re -evaluation of comics criticism that values the subjective, emotional, and the popular as much as the “objective” areas of formal complexity and logic. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS To Anna O’Brien, for the original germ of this idea and hours of enlightening conversation and companionship. To Jeremy Wallach and Esther Clinton, whose emphatic response to the paper that eventually became this thesis was instrumental to my belief in the quality of my work.
