Paint by Numbers.Indd Peanuts Paint By Numbers Full-color Sunday comics have been a long tradition in newspapers. Sundays were reserved for big, multi-panel comic strips printed in bright colors and featured in their own section known as the Sunday Funnies. Though Charles M. Schulz always drew his comics in black and white, he did have a hand in choosing the colors for his Sunday strips. Schulz sent his completed black-and-white Sunday strips to a local printing company to have a negative made. From the negative, a reproduction of the strip was made in a smaller size than the original. Schulz would hand-color this copy and have his secretary number the colors using a color chart, as shown in the example below. The newspaper syndicates used this numbering system to identify the correct color dye for the printing plates for the Sunday Funnies. Eventually, Schulz’s secretary took over the entire coloring and numbering process under his supervision. Top: an original color-coded Sunday reproduction from the Schulz Museum’s collection.

  • The Practical Use of Comics by TESOL Professionals By
    Comics Aren’t Just For Fun Anymore: The Practical Use of Comics by TESOL Professionals by David Recine A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in TESOL _________________________________________ Adviser Date _________________________________________ Graduate Committee Member Date _________________________________________ Graduate Committee Member Date University of Wisconsin-River Falls 2013 Comics, in the form of comic strips, comic books, and single panel cartoons are ubiquitous in classroom materials for teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL). While comics material is widely accepted as a teaching aid in TESOL, there is relatively little research into why comics are popular as a teaching instrument and how the effectiveness of comics can be maximized in TESOL. This thesis is designed to bridge the gap between conventional wisdom on the use of comics in ESL/EFL instruction and research related to visual aids in learning and language acquisition. The hidden science behind comics use in TESOL is examined to reveal the nature of comics, the psychological impact of the medium on learners, the qualities that make some comics more educational than others, and the most empirically sound ways to use comics in education. The definition of the comics medium itself is explored; characterizations of comics created by TESOL professionals, comic scholars, and psychologists are indexed and analyzed. This definition is followed by a look at the current role of comics in society at large, the teaching community in general, and TESOL specifically. From there, this paper explores the psycholinguistic concepts of construction of meaning and the language faculty.

  • The Translation of American Comics During Italian Fascism
    Between Censorship and Innovation: The Translation of American Comics during Italian Fascism Caterina Sinibaldi (University of Warwick) Abstract This article outlines the main issues surrounding the process of import, trans- lation and cultural adaptation of American comics in Italy from 1908 to 1942. During this time, the first comics were translated from Europe and the United States, leading to a revolution in Italian children’s literature. These were also the years in which comics began to be perceived as a political, as well as pedagogical problem, which prompted the Fascist regime to issue censorship measures aimed at limiting their circulation. The aesthetic and ideological dimension of comics will be investigated alongside the different strategies of translation and adaptation used by Italian editors and cartoonists. The reasons behind the disapproval of comics by Italian pedagogues, and the ambivalent attitude of the Fascist regime, will also be explored. In conclusion, my anal- ysis aims to offer insights into the cultural function of children’s literature during Fascism and the specific role of comics as a site for innovation. Comics and Translation The history of Italian comics is a history of translation. Foreign comics, mostly from the United Kingdom, France and the United States, entered the Italian mar- ket at the beginning of the twentieth century, adding movement and colour to the pages of the first children’s magazines. Being labelled as a product for children, comics had to comply with specific translation norms and pedagogical (as well as aesthetic) requirements. Such requirements acquired political connotations during the years of Fascism (1922–43), when books for children became powerful tools for propaganda in the service of Mussolini’s regime.

  • Truth, Justice, and the Canadian Way: the War-Time Comics of Bell Features Publications Ivan Kocmarek Hamilton, Ontario
    Truth, Justice, and the Canadian Way: The War-Time Comics of Bell Features Publications Ivan Kocmarek Hamilton, Ontario 148 What might be called the “First Age of Canadian Comics”1 began on a consum- mately Canadian political and historical foundation. Canada had entered the Second World War on September 10, 1939, nine days after Hitler invaded the Sudetenland and a week after England declared war on Germany. Just over a year after this, on December 6, 1940, William Lyon MacKenzie King led parliament in declaring the War Exchange Conservation Act (WECA) as a protectionist measure to bolster the Canadian dollar and the war economy in general. Among the paper products now labeled as restricted imports were pulp magazines and comic books.2 Those precious, four-colour, ten-cent treasure chests of American culture that had widened the eyes of youngsters from Prince Edward to Vancouver Islands immedi- ately disappeared from the corner newsstands. Within three months—indicia dates give March 1941, but these books were probably on the stands by mid-January— Anglo-American Publications in Toronto and Maple Leaf Publications in Vancouver opportunistically filled this vacuum by putting out the first issues of Robin Hood Comics and Better Comics, respectively. Of these two, the latter is widely considered by collectors to be the first true Canadian comic book becauseRobin Hood Comics Vol. 1 No. 1 seems to have been a tabloid-sized collection of reprints of daily strips from the Toronto Telegram written by Ted McCall and drawn by Charles Snelgrove. Still in Toronto, Adrian Dingle and the Kulbach twins combined forces to release the first issue of Triumph-Adventure Comics six months later (August 1941), and then publisher Cyril Bell and his artist employee Edmund T.

  • The Interaction of Image and Text in Modern Comics
    240 Lambeens And Pint Chapter 12 The Interaction of Image and Text In Modern Comics Tom Lambeens and Kris PintLambeens and Pint Introduction The combination of image and text is undoubtedly one of the most typical features of the comic strip genre. This combination in itself is, of course, far from new. Sequential images were already combined with textual elements in Egyptian hieroglyphs or medieval manuscripts and paintings.1 The comic strip as such evolved in the first half of the nineteenth century, with artists like Rodolphe Töpffer (influenced by William Hogarth), Wilhelm Busch and Pehr Nord quist, all of whom created stories that were easy to reproduce and com­ bined words and images, albeit still strictly separated from each other. Inspired by the American newspaper comics of the early twentieth century, like Frede­ rik Burr Opper’s Happy Hooligan (1900) and Alphonse and Gaston (1901), the European comic strip started to integrate speech balloons into the image itself, with Hergé’s Les Aventures de Tintin as its most prominent and best­known ex­ ponent.2 Initially conceived for the youth supplement of a Belgian newspaper, Tintin proved so successful that his adventures were soon published in book form as well. The emergence of real comic books meant an important evolu­ tion of comics, a move away from the rather transitory medium of the newspa­ per. Yet for a long time, comic books were mostly seen as children’s entertain­ ment. In the seventies, this view began to change with the emergence of the so­called “graphic novel,” which featured more mature content and, at times, a more experimental style of drawing as well.

  • Comic Strips and Black Newspapers in Postwar Toledo
    Swing Papa and Barry Jordan: Comic Strips and Black Newspapers in Postwar Toledo Angela M. Nelson Introduction Popular culture reflects, symbolizes, and embodies the thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and values of its producers and audiences.1 Popular culture is that part of all culture that is concerned with pleasure, enjoy- ment, and amusement. Comic art is a form of popular culture dating back to the early 1890s. After the turn of the century, comic strips2 had become a permanent part of white mainstream newspapers and magazines, but black newspapers overall were not as agreeable to their inclusion.3 In short, black newspapers focused their attention on the “serious” issues confronting blacks of that period. However, with the advent of large circula- tion newspapers especially published for black communities coupled with the established tradition of comic strips in major newspapers, many editors of black newspapers began encouraging the inclusion of comic strips.4 The Baltimore Afro-American, Chicago Defender, and Pittsburgh Courier were the leading large circulating black newspapers that included black comic strips following World War I.5 Scholarly essays or chapters written by John Appel, Ian Gordon, Thomas Inge, Steven Jones, John Stevens, and Roland Wolseley examine blacks in comic strips in mainstream newspapers and magazines and/or black comic strips in black newspapers.6 Together these writings are useful for providing descriptive information about black comic strips and charac- ters that are not well-known, for providing comparisons of white and ethnic representations in comic strips, and for bringing attention and structure to this area of study within the field of comic art scholarship.
