Desde entonces han vivido una serie de tragedias que han asolado sus vidas de forma paralela. Desde el final del matrimonio de Gordon al poco de llegar a la ciudad hasta la muerte de Jason Todd, la parálisis de Barbara Gordon, la llegada de Bane y el cambio de Batman por Jean Paul Valley hasta la mayor crisis de Gotham con Tierra de Nadie. Ambos han pagado el precio que supone marcar la diferencia en una ciudad tan corrupta como Gotham City y en Batman: Momentos decisivos los autores Greg Rucka, Ed Brubaker y Chuck Dixon repasan la historia que han vivido ambos a lo largo de todos estos años. Con dibujantes de la talla de Javier Pulido o Paul Pope (Batman: Año 100). Copyright © DC Comics BATMAN. ARKHAM Núm. 12 ¡ÚLTIMO NÚMERO!

El repaso a algunos de los enemigos más importantes del Caballero Oscuro llega a su fin y para celebrarlo el último número centra su atención en el manicomio en sí, sin un villano en concreto como protagonista. Para llevarlo a cabo, este volumen recopila la miniserie Arkham Asylum: Living Hell de Dan Slott y Ryan Sook en la que se vive de primera mano cómo es ingresar en el Asilo Arkham. Además cuenta con historias cortas realizadas por autores como Tim Sale o Gene Ha centradas o en el edificio o en Jeremiah Arkham, director del centro. Por si fuera poco se añade una ficha médica de cada paciente que ha pasado por la colección, cerrando así el ciclo empezado hace un año.

  • Growing up with Vertigo: British Writers, Dc, and the Maturation of American Comic Books
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by ScholarWorks @ UVM GROWING UP WITH VERTIGO: BRITISH WRITERS, DC, AND THE MATURATION OF AMERICAN COMIC BOOKS A Thesis Presented by Derek A. Salisbury to The Faculty of the Graduate College of The University of Vermont In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Specializing in History May, 2013 Accepted by the Faculty of the Graduate College, The University of Vermont, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts, specializing in History. Thesis Examination Committee: ______________________________________ Advisor Abigail McGowan, Ph.D ______________________________________ Melanie Gustafson, Ph.D ______________________________________ Chairperson Elizabeth Fenton, Ph.D ______________________________________ Dean, Graduate College Domenico Grasso, Ph.D March 22, 2013 Abstract At just under thirty years the serious academic study of American comic books is relatively young. Over the course of three decades most historians familiar with the medium have recognized that American comics, since becoming a mass-cultural product in 1939, have matured beyond their humble beginnings as a monthly publication for children. However, historians are not yet in agreement as to when the medium became mature. This thesis proposes that the medium’s maturity was cemented between 1985 and 2000, a much later point in time than existing texts postulate. The project involves the analysis of how an American mass medium, in this case the comic book, matured in the last two decades of the twentieth century. The goal is to show the interconnected relationships and factors that facilitated the maturation of the American sequential art, specifically a focus on a group of British writers working at DC Comics and Vertigo, an alternative imprint under the financial control of DC.

  • Adventure Quest I Spent the Spring Break of My Junior Year of College
    Adventure Quest I spent the spring break of my Junior year of college going through my basement. My mother had charged me with combing my things, throwing out everything I didn’t need and picking what I would take when my family moved to Atlanta, Georgia later the next month. In a box of old papers and binders from high school, I found a notebook containing one of the many “choose your own adventure” stories my best friend, Josh Saville, and I had written. Flipping through the pages it became clear to me what I wanted to spend the next year working on. Excited at my idea, I quickly told Josh of my plans, and he joined my excitement for our future project. That summer we began writing the original story that I would adapt into a choose-your-own-adventure-style comic book that would become Adventure​ Quest​. Then, as well as now, my first interest when it comes to this project is branching storytelling. My first encounter with this type of narration, like many people, was with the classic Choose​ Your Own Adventure​ book series. As a child, the ability to have agency in the story in front of me was exhilarating. It wasn’t until later in High School that I, along with Josh, became fascinated with the underlying structure and framework of these stories as well as the unique possibilities second person narration gives to a work of prose. My second interest in this project is the problem of adapting prose in a visual way for a comic book.

  • Vertigo and the Auteur Figure
    Ambiguous Authorities: Vertigo and the Auteur Figure ISABELLE LICARI-GUILLAUME Abstract: This article examines authorial performance in the context of DC’s Vertigo line. In the 1990s, Vertigo gained its reputation as an innovative and progressive imprint by promoting the work of British scriptwriters, who were hailed as true author figures, despite the inherently collaborative nature of the mainstream comics industry. In a manner reminiscent of “auteur theory”, writers such as Neil Gaiman, Warren Ellis or Grant Morrison developed attractive authorial personae which they consistently displayed through interviews, letter columns or social media, but also, more importantly, by inserting their avatars within the comics they scripted. Upon closer examination, however, it becomes clear that their work in fact simultaneously asserts and destabilizes writerly authority, in a manner that is consistent with Linda Hutcheon’s view of postmodernity. By multiplying author figures and playfully disseminating authority, Vertigo authors question their own authorial control over the text, asserting instead the crucial role played by the reader. Bio: Isabelle Licari-Guillaume is a Teaching and Research Assistant at the Department of English at Université Bordeaux Montaigne, France. She specializes in contemporary comics studies and has recently defended her PhD, which examined the British Invasion of American comics, its aeshetic evolution over time, and its influence on the editorial history of DC's Vertigo imprint. Her other fields of interest include translation and gender studies, on which she has written several articles. In 2015, she edited a collection of essays on the body in comics (Les Langages du corps dans la bande dessinée, l'Harmattan) and is currently editing another volume, Translators of Comics / Les Traducteurs de bande dessinée.
