Comunicado De Novedades Noviembre/2014 a La Venta El 29/10/14 COMUNICADO DE NOVEDADES NOVIEMBRE/2014 A LA VENTA EL 29/10/14 WWW.ECCEDICIONES.COM WWW.LIBRERIAS.ECCEDICIONES.COM [email protected] [email protected] SÍGUENOS EN www.facebook.com/ECCEdiciones twitter.com/eccediciones www.youtube.com/user/CanalECCEdiciones www.instagram.com/eccediciones Google+ NOVIEMBRE or la inminencia del invierno, la cercanía del nuevo año y la proximidad de festividades varias, noviembre podría considerarse como un mes de transición, conde- nado a quedar relegado a un segundo plano. Pero nada más lejos de nuestros planes; más bien al contrario, nos hemos esmerado en preparar una selección de títulos con los que encarar la despedida del 2014 con el mejor sabor de boca posible. PComo curiosidad, cabe apuntar que en Japón este se considera el “mes de la calidad”, y teniendo en cuenta que los primeros días de noviembre coinciden con la celebración del XX Salón del Manga de Barcelona... ¡teníamos que hacer algo al respecto! Así, además de poner punto y final a la terrorífica Gyo y de publicar una nueva entrega de la gamberra Crows —de Junji Ito y Hiroshi Takahashi, respectivamente— comenzaremos una nueva serie: El hombre sediento, de los míticos Kazuo Koike y Gôseki Kojima. Con esta obra, los responsables de títulos tan destacados como Hanzô, el camino del asesino o El lobo solitario y su cachorro se remontan a los albores del shogunato Tokugawa para desarrollar un seinen histórico apasionante. Por otra parte, la actualidad más rabiosa del panorama americano nos invita a subrayar la importancia de El fin del mañana: en su edición original, una maxiserie semanal de 48 entregas que nosotros recopilaremos en tomos de periodicidad mensual. Con la participación de autores como Brian Azzarello, Keith Giffen, Jeff Lemire, Ryan Sook, Dan Jurgens o Aaron Lopresti, entre otros, la colección propone echar un vistazo a un futuro cercano que bien podría condicionar el Nuevo Universo DC... En el apartado de reediciones, destaca especialmente el tomo Grandes autores de Batman: Paul Dini y Bruce Timm - Amor loco y otras historias: un volumen que recopila los cómics firmados por los creadores Batman: La serie animada. Porque siendo este el año en que se celebra el 75 aniversario de Batman, no podía faltar en nuestro catálogo la inolvidable Amor loco, que en 1994 se alzó con el premio Eisner a la mejor historia unitaria. Las últimas líneas de este pequeño avance están dedicadas al sello Vertigo, que en noviembre no solo contará con ilustres reediciones, sino también con esperadísimos lanzamientos de los éxitos más recientes surgidos de este sello. En primer lugar, tras una espera de cuatro meses propiciada por retrasos en la edición original, por fin os podemos ofrecer un nuevo número de Sandman: Obertura, miniserie planteada a modo de precuela en la que Neil Gaiman une su talento al de J.H. Williams III. También publicaremos la conclusión de Y, el último hombre, de unos Brian K. Vaughan y Pia Guerra que idearon un final a la altura de esta estupenda serie. ¿Y qué decir de El resurgir? Ganadora de los premios Eisner 2014 a la mejor serie limitada y al mejor dibujante/entintador, esta creación de Scott Snyder y Sean Murphy condensa su pasión por la ciencia ficción, el terror y la aventura, acreditando de paso la plena madurez creativa de dos de los referentes del cómic mainstream contemporáneo. ¡Y hasta aquí llega este breve repaso! Como de costumbre, encontraréis muchos más detalles —y alguna que otra sorpresa— en las páginas que siguen a continuación. Esperamos que os gusten los planes que tenemos para el mes de noviembre, y ya sabéis que en caso de duda, siempre podéis recurrir a nuestras redes sociales y web oficial, donde atenderemos cualquier consulta planteada.

  • Understanding Visual Metaphors: What Graphic Novels Can Teach Lawyers About Visual Storytelling
    UNDERSTANDING VISUAL METAPHORS: WHAT GRAPHIC NOVELS CAN TEACH LAWYERS ABOUT VISUAL STORYTELLING Lenora Ledwon ABSTRACT Effective legal storytelling requires facility with images. While law schools traditionally place great pedagogical emphasis on the power of the word, the power of the image gets short shrift. Yet, cognitive scientists have long recognized the persuasive force of images. This Article focuses on one specific type of image: the visual metaphor. A visual metaphor, like its verbal counterpart, represents one thing in terms of something else, but uses images instead of words. Graphic novels provide an excellent introduction to visual metaphors because their format depends on strong visual thematic continuity. This Article uses Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra’s multivolume graphic novel, “Y: The Last Man,” to illustrate how visual metaphors operate. By exploring visual metaphors in graphic novels, lawyers can improve their visual literacy and learn to recognize and create visual metaphors. TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

  • Inciting Change: an Interview with Frank Miller
    issue four winter 2015 INCITING CHANGE: AN INTERVIEW WITH FRANK MILLER 2015: THE YEAR IN CENSORSHIP Director’s Note From the murders at Charlie Hebdo on January 7 through the barbaric persecution of international political cartoonists and the rising calls for censorship of graphic novels in the United States, the fight for free expression in comics was one of the central news stories of 2015. Thanks to the support of our contributors, CBLDF was at the forefront, fighting back when censorship struck at home and speaking out against violations of free STAFF speech abroad. In this issue of CBLDF Defender, we look back on this most eventful year.

On Caitlin McCabe, Contributing Editor page 3, Betsy Gomez examines “The New Crusade Against Comics,” and how CBLDF Robert Corn-Revere, Legal Counsel is fighting back. Caitlin McCabe adds some historical perspective on page 12, exploring what happened to comics “After the Comics Code,” a cautionary tale of how moral panic BOARD OF DIRECTORS specifically hampered the creativity of this vibrant medium.
