Incorporating complex histories of comic book and Hollywood film industries, I consider the cultural moments in which Marvel films are made, particularly postfeminist culture. In comics, most elements rendered within the space of the panel that would not be visible in a snapshot of the diegesis tend to be symbolic: for example text and emanata. Detailed textual analysis attends to cinematic elements, narrative, ideology and discourse, highlighting relationships between representations of women in Marvel films and feminist issues.

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.

    Running head: EFFECTS OF VIOLENCE IN CARTOONS 1 The Effects of Violence in Popular Culture Cartoons Leanne Thomas Art Education 703 Professor Ivashkevich Running head: EFFECTS OF VIOLENCE IN CARTOONS 2 The Effects of Violence in Popular Culture Cartoons “The average child who watches 2 hours of cartoons a day may see nearly 10,000 violent incidents each year, of which the researchers estimate that at least 500 pose a high risk for learning and imitating aggression and becoming desensitized to violence” (The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 2003). Children and imitating television aggression is an on going debate since the 1930’s, though the recent technical advancements pose a greater reason to address the effects that violence in cartoons have on today’s youth. This curriculum addresses the effects of cartoon violence while allowing middle school students to deconstruct popular culture cartoon programs. Students will be able to create an alternative sequence that will be presented in a logical progression that correlates stop motion animations, storyboarding, comic strips and animation stills with positive violence- free cartoons. The correlation between violence in cartoons and youth responses has always been a hot debate topic since the 1960’s, and is still a leading topic, which now can be tied to the more recent anti-bullying campaign. A Kaiser Family Foundation (2003) study showed direct association between bullying and a child’s exposure to media. This study, and many more like it, help to aid children’s television program networks, such as Cartoon Network, create an anti-bullying campaign called Stop Bullying: Speak Up.

  • List of Terms for Comics Studies
    LIST OF TERMS FOR COMICS STUDIES Andrei Molotiu I put together the following list of terms, for the use of my students at Indiana University, Bloomington and at the University of Louisville, over the more than a decade that I have been teaching courses on comics. An earlier, shorter version of it was published in 2006 on the website of the National Association of Comic Art Educators (nacae.org; no longer extant) as part of the syllabus for my course at IU, Art History H 150, “The History of Comic-Book Art.” The list is not intended to be exhaustive: I compiled it primarily to be used in connection to my courses, and its emphases (and possible exclusions) reflect my own pedagogical interests. There is a simple explanation for the bold lettering on some of the terms: it indicated to my students the notions for which they were responsible on their exams. The list was put together mostly from notions in common use in the comics industry, terms in Scott McCloud’s Understanding Comics (which I used as a textbook), terms adapted from film and literary studies, and new terms I have introduced myself for notions that seemed particularly important in my teaching. In a couple of further instances, the sources of terms are credited in the body of the entry. To the best of my knowledge, the formulations of all definitions, as written, are my own. For this publication, I have also incorporated into some of the definitions more detailed discussions based on my lecture notes. I teach in an art history department, and have also used in discussing the art of comics many art-historical terms such as “chiaroscuro,” “baroque,” “idealization,” etc.

The purpose of this research is to adapt the approaches used by prominent and influential writers and artists in the American superhero/action comic-book field to create an engaging Australian hero comic book. Further, the aim of this thesis is to bridge the gap between the lack of academic writing on the professional practice of the Australian comic industry. In order to achieve this, I explored and learned the methods these prominent and professional US writers and artists use. Compared to the American industry, the creating of comic books in Australia has rarely been documented, particularly in a formal capacity or from a contemporary perspective. The process I used was to navigate through the research and studio practice from the perspective of a solo artist with an interest to learn, and to develop into an artist with a firmer understanding of not only the medium being engaged, but the context in which the medium is being created.

The SAC RDA Subcommittee was formally disbanded, based on the announcement by the RDA Steering Committee (RSA) that RDA will not address subjects, as was originally planned. The PCC will revive the practice of having a designated person report from the SACO/PCC at large meeting to SAC. It was decided that the liaison should be from the SACO program in general, not just the ALA meeting. Paul Frank (LC) volunteered to fill this role. SAC received a response to a request for comment on LCSH “Illegal aliens”; ALA will not be pursuing at this time. It was noted that the Sears heading was changed to “Unauthorized immigrants” and that sears is a controlled vocabulary available for subject usage.
