  • Writing About Comics
    NACAE National Association of Comics Art Educators English 100-v: Writing about Comics From the wild assertions of Unbreakable and the sudden popularity of films adapted from comics (not just Spider-Man or Daredevil, but Ghost World and From Hell), to the abrupt appearance of Dan Clowes and Art Spiegelman all over The New Yorker, interesting claims are now being made about the value of comics and comic books. Are they the visible articulation of some unconscious knowledge or desire -- No, probably not. Are they the new literature of the twenty-first century -- Possibly, possibly... This course offers a reading survey of the best comics of the past twenty years (sometimes called “graphic novels”), and supplies the skills for reading comics critically in terms not only of what they say (which is easy) but of how they say it (which takes some thinking). More importantly than the fact that comics will be touching off all of our conversations, however, this is a course in writing critically: in building an argument, in gathering and organizing literary evidence, and in capturing and retaining the reader's interest (and your own). Don't assume this will be easy, just because we're reading comics. We'll be working hard this semester, doing a lot of reading and plenty of writing. The good news is that it should all be interesting. The texts are all really good books, though you may find you don't like them all equally well. The essays, too, will be guided by your own interest in the texts, and by the end of the course you'll be exploring the unmapped territory of literary comics on your own, following your own nose.

    HOW TO USE THIS BOOK 1. come on in. Have a look around. Check out the Table of Contents to see if anything catches your eye. 2. all of our workshops are different, so all of our lesson plans are too. Generally, there’s an outline of the lesson for you and sometimes a handout for the students. We’ve tried to make them as user-friendly as possible. 3. to help you plan your class, we’ve headed each lesson plan with a time estimate. Th is is how long the class generally runs. In your classroom it might go slower or faster, but we’ve tried to ballpark it for you. 4. as much as we’ve tried to make things fun, we’ve also tried to keep things simple. A three-ring writing circus with actual trained animals and cotton candy machines would be great fun for your students, but a great big headache for you, so we’ve tried to keep the supplies and prep to a minimum. We’ve headed each lesson plan and activity with the list of materials it requires. Most of the time this will consist of things you already have on hand. Fancier fi xings are optional. 5. we encourage you to adapt these lessons to suit you and your students. Th ese lessons were taught in an after-school environment, with students who were there by choice, so we expect they’ll need some tweaking to work for you. Make them yours. 6. sometimes you might have extra time and want to do something really, really special.

    ABANDONED CARS by Tim Lane APRIL $18.99 Paperback • Territory: E COMICS & GRAPHIC NOVELS / Literary • CQ: 30 168 pages, black-and-white, 7” x 9 ½” ISBN: 978-1-60699-341-5 Previous hardcover edition: 978-1-56097-918-0 • 2009 Ignatz Award Nominee for Outstanding Collection • Video preview of 2008 hardcover edition available at: fantagraphics.com/abandonedcars • AGE RANGE: 15 + • Author website: jackienoname.com THE ACCLAIMED 2008 debuT NOW IN SOFTCOVER! Abandoned Cars is Tim Lane’s first collection of graphic short stories, noir- ish narratives that are united by their exploration of the great American mytho- logical drama by way of the desperate and haunted characters that populate its pages. Lane’s characters exist on the margins of society—alienated, floating in the void between hope and despair, confused but introspective. The writing is straightforward, the stories mainstream but told in a pulpy idiom with an existential edge, often in the first person, reminiscent of David Goodis’s or Jim Thompson’s prose, or of films like Pick-Up on South Street or Out of the Past. Visually, Lane’s drawing is in a realistic mode, reminiscent of Charles Burns, that heightens the tension in stories that veer between naturalism on the one hand and the comical, nightmarish, and hallucinatory on the other. Here, American culture is a thrift store and the characters are thrift store junkies living among the clutter. It’s an America depicted as a subdued and haunted Coney Island, made up of lost characters—boozing, brawling, haplessly shooting themselves in the face, and hopping freight trains in search of Elvis.
