The Library of American Comics. IDW Publishing, San Diego, Revised 2016 Oct 7 Page !1 of !15 CA, and DC Comics, Burbank, CA. ISBN-13: 9781613778456 (hardbound). An incredible 277-page reprint of all Batman comic strips from 1996-1967. Poison Ivy first appeared in two comic books, Batman, Volume 1, #181 (June 1966), and #183 (August 1966). On the inside front jacket cover of this book, Poison Ivy is mentioned in a single panel dated “12/24”, from the strip printed in full on page 106. Her first appearance in a comic strip was December 10, 1966, on page 102 in the last panel of the previous storyline, as a preview to upcoming adventures. Her story appears on pages 103-142 (the panel atop page 140 is especially good). The storyline is explained on page 270, as The Sizzling Saga of Poison Ivy, December 12, 1966 – March 17, 1967. The cover of Batman, Volume 1, #181 is also reprinted there. When Poison Ivy, masquerading as an innocent young woman, meets Batman, she introduces herself as Laurel Lee (a side panel narrative tells us her real name is Ivy Smith; see January 20, 1967, on page 118). The storyline reveals her accomplices, three beautiful women called the Ivy Leaguers: Veronica Vassar, Nancy Radcliffe, and Betsy Barnard. She also has a rough-looking henchman named Blue-Jaw McGook and a handful of paid unnamed male thugs. Batman seems to be under Poison Ivy’s spell, which worries Robin. The duo attend a swanky party at the newly opened Batman Hilton Hotel. When the lights suddenly go out, the girls steal jewelry from the guests and flee, Batman and Robin pursue, and eventually catch them. Poison Ivy also appears in The Batman Cast printed in full color on the outside back cover. The legend to the cast members is printed just before the book’s final endpaper; Poison Ivy is outline #10. ✔Ellsworth, Whitney, Al Plastino, & Joe Giella. 2014.

Comics Buyer’s Guide Presents: Dangerous Curves. Comics’ Sexiest Bad Girls. Krause Publications, Iola, WI. ISBN-13: 9781440235009 (softbound). Poison Ivy appears on page 22.

The Essential Batman Encyclopedia. Del Rey, NY. ISBN-13: 9780385364508 (hardbound). In encyclopedia format, it provides excellent synopses of characters in the DC Comics’ Batman Universe. Pamela Isley is mentioned on pages 138-139 within the entry for Floronic Man. In the storyline, Jason Woodrue (Floronic Man) was her university botany professor. He persuaded Pamela into stealing Egyptian herbs and concocted a toxin from them, which he fed to her. Instead of killing her, she became immune to it and all other toxins. She later became Poison Ivy, commited crimes, and was sent to Arkham Asylum. Jason broke her out in order to use her DNA to create a “child”. She disliked his plans and worked with Batman to capture him. Pamela Isley is also mentioned on page 177 within the entry for Harley Quinn. Poison Ivy found a crashed rocket with an injured Harley Quinn inside. After rescuing and treating Harley, Poison Ivy made her immune to toxins and the two became close friends. Pamela Isley has a very short entry on page 190. A black and white cropped version of the cover art by Brian Bolland (from Batman: Gotham Knights #15, May 2001) is on page 191. Poison Ivy is also mentioned on page 276 within the entry for No Man’s Land. When Gotham City is devastated, criminals carve up portions as their own territory; Poison Ivy selects Robinson Park. Between pages 276-277 are full-color reproductions of covers and various art that includes Poison Ivy. Poison Ivy has a lengthy entry on pages 295-297.

  • English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada
    Drawing on the Margins of History: English-Language Graphic Narratives in Canada by Kevin Ziegler A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Kevin Ziegler 2013 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This study analyzes the techniques that Canadian comics life writers develop to construct personal histories. I examine a broad selection of texts including graphic autobiography, biography, memoir, and diary in order to argue that writers and readers can, through these graphic narratives, engage with an eclectic and eccentric understanding of Canadian historical subjects. Contemporary Canadian comics are important for Canadian literature and life writing because they acknowledge the importance of contemporary urban and marginal subcultures and function as representations of people who occasionally experience economic scarcity. I focus on stories of “ordinary” people because their stories have often been excluded from accounts of Canadian public life and cultural history. Following the example of Barbara Godard, Heather Murray, and Roxanne Rimstead, I re- evaluate Canadian literatures by considering the importance of marginal literary products. Canadian comics authors rarely construct narratives about representative figures standing in place of and speaking for a broad community; instead, they create what Murray calls “history with a human face . the face of the daily, the ordinary” (“Literary History as Microhistory” 411).

Blue Beetle's Adventures in the New 52By Walter Gabrielsen IIIThis is the collected volume of Blue Beetle's (Jaime Reyes) big adventures in the new 52 comics (issues 7 to 16, and also the special issue 0 -- which tells the backstory of the scarab).You get the same number of pages as in the individual issues but all together at once, and there are several story arcs here to read though, about 1 per issue. On the first page of each story is a caption title as if it were a TV episode.The art is sharp, clear, and detailed for most of the book, except I notice that the first page of issue 0 is slightly blocky and pixelated. Fortunately it's mostly minor and just for 1 page, and it's mostly a splash page, so you can squint to help hide the blockiness and enjoy the scene (the captions aren't blocky).I've another art comment about the tacked-on story, at the end of the book, that leads into the Threshold adventure.

  • The Empowering Squirrel Girl Jayme Horne Submitted for History of Art 390 Feminism and History of Art Professor Ellen Shortell M
    The Empowering Squirrel Girl Jayme Horne Submitted for History of Art 390 Feminism and History of Art Professor Ellen Shortell Massachusetts College of Art and Design All the strength of a squirrel multiplied to the size of a girl? That must be the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl (fig. 1)! This paper will explore Marvel’s Squirrel Girl character, from her introduction as a joke character to her 2015 The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl ​ comic series which is being harold as being extremely empowering. This paper aims to understand why a hero like Squirrel Girl would be harold and celebrated by fans, while other female heroes with feminist qualities like Captain Marvel or the New Almighty Thor might be receiving not as much praise. Squirrel Girl was created by Will Murray and artist Steve Ditko. Despite both of them having both worked for Marvel and DC, and having written stories about fan favorites like Spider-Man, Wonder Woman, Iron Man, and others, they are most known for creating Squirrel Girl, also known as Doreen Green. Her powers include superhuman strength, a furry, prehensile tail (roughly 3-4 feet long), squirrel-like buck teeth, squirrel-like retractable knuckle claws, as well as being able to communicate with squirrels and summon a squirrel army. She was first introduced in 1991, where she ambushed Iron Man in attempt to impress him and convince him to make her an Avenger. That’s when they were attacked one of Marvel’s most infamous and deadly villains, Doctor Doom. After Doctor Doom has defeated Iron Man, Squirrel Girl jumps in with her squirrel army and saves Iron Man1 (fig.

  • Mira Las Sorprendentes Apariciones De Chile En Variadas Historias De DC Cómics
    Mira las sorprendentes apariciones de Chile en variadas historias de DC Cómics Han transcurrido ocho décadas desde que Superman apareció por primera vez, el 18 de abril de 1938, en el N° 1 de la revista “Action Comics”. Casi un año después, en “Detective Comics” N° 27, apareció Batman. Fue el punto de partida para la consolidación de la National Allied Publications, hoy DC Comics, como empresa dedicada a la producción y distribución de cómics, pieza relevante de la industria cultural de los Estados Unidos y el conjunto del mundo capitalista occidental. Hoy DC Comics es la unidad de publicaciones de DC Entertainment, la cual a la vez es subsidiaria de Warner Bros Entertainment Inc., división de Time Warner. Forma parte -entonces- de un complejo industrial de productos culturales que incluyen también la televisión, el cine, la música y videojuegos. En la actualidad, Time Warner es el tercer conglomerado multinacional de medios y entretenimiento más grande del mundo. Batman y Superman están en el medio de esa industria. Y son figuras reconocibles por personas de todas las latitudes del planeta. DC Comics, el mundo en que habitan Batman y Superman, ha publicado cómics con referencias a Chile, las cuales han sido más bien escasas, puesto que la mayoría de sus historias transcurren en las ciudades ficticias de Gotham y Metrópolis y en lugares de Estados Unidos. Cuando salen de esas fronteras, los países de Europa, Rusia, México y Cuba han sido los sitios más visitados. Mira las sorprendentes apariciones de Chile en variadas historias de DC Cómics Un caso es la saga “American Gothic” de Swamp Thing (La Cosa del Pantano), cuyo guionista fue el británico Alan Moore, uno de los principales maestros de los cómics a nivel internacional.
