No. 15 Council Juggles Budget As Enrollment Decreases By GENE VALENTE, JR. In order to meet the financial crisis caused by the decrease in enrolment at UB, the third Student Council meeting of this semester has been forced to reallocate student funds for the remainder of the year.

  • David Hare, Surrealism, and the Comics Mona Hadler Brooklyn College and the Graduate Center, CUNY
    93 David Hare, Surrealism, and the Comics Mona Hadler Brooklyn College and The Graduate Center, CUNY The history of the comic book in the United States has been closely allied with mass culture debates ranging from Clement Greenberg’s 1939 essay “Avant-Garde and Kitsch” to Fredric Wertham’s attack on the comic book industry in his now infamous 1954 book, Seduction of the Innocent. An alternative history can be constructed, however, by linking the comics to the expatriate Surrealist community in New York in the thirties and early forties with its focus on fantasy, dark humor, the poetics and ethics of evil, transgressive and carnivalesque body images, and restless desire. Surrealist artists are well known for their fascination with black humor, pulp fi ction, and crime novels—in particular the popular series Fantômas. Indeed, the image of the scoundrel in elegant attire holding a bloody dagger, featured in the writings of the Surrealist Robert Desnos (Color Plate 10), epitomized this darkling humor (Desnos 377-79).1 Pictures of Fantômas and articles on the pulp market peppered the pages of Surrealist magazines in Europe and America, from Documents in France (1929-1930) to VVV and View in New York in the early forties. By moving the discussion of the comics away from a Greenbergian or Frankfurt school discourse on mass culture to the debates surrounding Surrealism, other issues come to the fore. The comics become a site for the exploration of mystery, the imagination, criminality, and freedom. The comic book industry originated in the United States in the late thirties and early forties on the heels of a booming pulp fi ction market.

    223 Congress Street James F. O’Brien’s Shoe Store & Apartment Building, 1896 -1909 Contributing Architectural Description The four-story, two-by-five bay building at 223 Congress Street is constructed of Flemish bond brick and features a flat roof and Italianate details. Facing southeast, 223 Congress Street has a storefront on the first floor (to the west) accessible by a recessed entrance, with the entrance for the rest of the structure being located at the building’s eastern corner. This blue- and gray-painted entrance has a paneled door with central elongated oval stained glass window, wooden door surround, and carved white solid wood fanlight above. Brick pilasters capped with wooden entablatures flank this entrance, topped with a decorative blue- and gray-painted wooden beltcourse that runs the width of the building. A three-story bay window painted in the same blue and gray tones at the first story runs vertically up the west side of the building, with a central six over six window, and four over four windows on either side. To the east of this bay window is a single, narrow, six over six window on each level—this window has a segmented brick arch over the window on the second and third story, while the fourth story window has a decorative arch brickwork. Each story is distinguished by a wide beltcourse with alternating recessed bricks,that spans the width of the building—these recessed bricks give an overall pierced appearance. The roof is flat, with a wide overhanging white- and blue- painted wooden cornice that extends across the front façade of the building, with decorative brackets.

  • One Fine Sunday in the Funny Pages” Exhibit
    John Read is the creator and curator of the “One Fine Sunday in the Funny Pages” exhibit. A freelance cartoonist, John also teaches cartooning to children and is the publisher and editor of Stay Tooned! Magazine, considered the trade journal of the craft. The Comic Mode The comic strip provides a colorful and humorous respite from the serious and often tragic news that precedes it. There are many reasons for reading the “funny pages”; from the basic need to be entertained, to the desire to escape for a moment into what seems a playful combination of a joke and a sequence of images that illustrate the nonsense and play that generates it. Yet, what really constitutes the “comic” in a comic strip? Are they simply funny, as in Blondie, Garfield or Hagar the Horrible? Or do we sense underlying tones of irony, satire, political and social commentary as evidenced in Doonesbury, Non Sequitur, and Between Friends? How are we to understand the double entendre, the sting of wit or the twist of the absurd that infuses so many contemporary comic strips? It would seem that as in dreams, there are many levels to the comic mode. On the first take, the superficial or manifest appeal generates a smile or laughter. But as with many dreams and good jokes, there is the second take, a latent need to establish or defy meaning as embedded within the structure of the images themselves. The paradox or playfulness of the comic strip partially lies in discovering the truth in the nonsensical aspects of day-to-day living.

    THE ELEANOR ROOSEVELT PROGRAM November 3, 1950 Description: In the interview segment, ER interviews comic book illustrator Al Capp. Participants: ER, Elliott Roosevelt, Al Capp [ER:] Humor in our lives is an essential, as we all know. And this afternoon, my guest is one who has brought it to millions of people young and old. In my living room with me is Mr. Al Capp. [Al Capp:] Hello, Mrs. Roosevelt. [ER:] Very nice to have you, Mr. Capp. I’m afraid I’ll have to own up right at the start that I hardly ever read the funny papers, and I’ve only read comic books when I’ve had to read them to a child that was ill, or there was some particular reason why I had to do it, so I’m completely unfamiliar with them. Except to the extent that sometimes I feel that I should blame you and other originators of comics for the behavior of my grandchildren! I was brought up, I’m afraid, in the old fashioned type of library the kind of library where you had the classics and modern novels, and I happened to have a grandfather who was interested in all kinds of ecclesiastical questions, so Gustave Dore Bible was one of my first fascinating things to look at and read. But um I don’t really know whether today, um these comics have taken the place of classics or of uh general reading. I’d just like you to educate me. [Al Capp:] Alright, I’ll tell you about them, I’ll tell you about comics.

The change from older stages to the modem Factory Stage has been comparatively recent, and survivals of earlier forms have existed within the memory of the old men of today. Sources, direct or indirect, oral and recorded, can be woven together to establish, to limit, and to illustrate each one of these stages and the transitions of their various phases. The materials used as the basis of the conclusions given here have been gathered at first hand within the last ten years,%y the writer, in the best known shoe centres of Massachusetts, i.e., Brockton, the Brookfields, the Weymouths, the Braintrees, the Randolphs, and Lynn.

  • Novel Idea for Social Justice: Comics, Critical Theory, and a Contextual Graphic Narratology
    A (Graphic) Novel Idea for Social Justice: Comics, Critical Theory, and A Contextual Graphic Narratology Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Karly Marie Grice, M.A. Graduate Program in Education: Teaching & Learning The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Patricia Enciso, Advisor Michelle Ann Abate, Co-advisor Melinda Rhoades, Committee Member Caroline Clark, Committee Member 1 Copyrighted by Karly Marie Grice 2017 Abstract In my dissertation, I develop a combination of structural and critical theories for the medium-specific analysis of comics for children and young adults. I begin by laying a historical foundation of the medium of comics and a visual culture analytic framework to delineate my specific methodology of research, a contextualized graphic narratology. As of the writing of this dissertation, this work is the only extended, single-authored exploration into the construction and implications of comics for children and young adults. Within the following chapters, I combine the medium specific tools of a formalist comics study with the field-based knowledge of the function of children’s and young adult narratives. I use these combined analytic tools to not only further the growth of a new comics scholarship but also to investigate how comics for children and young adults are using the implied reader to push the boundaries of the definition of “child.” Looking at two comics series for young readers, Lumberjanes and the March trilogy, I explore how what I call tools of disruption are woven into the visual constructions in order to play with reader’s experiences and expectations, provoke them into questioning the texts they are reading and the world around them, and push them to lay the foundation for imagined alternatives.
