Crumb, Gilbert Shelton, Robert Williams, S. Clay Wilson, Spain Rodriguez, Victor Moscoso, Paul Mavrides, Rick Griffin : Zap Comix #16 before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Zap Comix #16: 18 of 18 people found the following review helpful. Ah, well...By Sean BurnsSo here we are, almost 50 years after ZAP 1 appeared, with a sorta lackluster "farewell" from the old radicals that blew so many minds back in the day. But it's been a tough 50 years for many, they have nothing to prove and can rest on their laurels, and if they can make a little for their golden years, that's fine by me.ZAP 16 resembles an old comic fanzine more than anything. Lots of stuff out of sketchbooks, rough and unfinished. Moscoso's art has none of the tight draftsmanship or kinetic movement that were so trippy then. The Rick Griffin piece is a blotchy scribble, but he's been dead for 25 years and it's understandable- there probably isn't much work remaining unseen by him.Clay Wilson's work is mostly first draft sketchbook stuff, not labored over, but it is great to see some of the work he did after his terrible accident in 2008 in any event. And "Last Call at the Pirate Pub"- almost undecipherable at first look, you have to really study it to see it- can stand as the apex achievement in his pirate-drawing career.Not showing their age or any decline AT ALL, Gilbert Shelton's WW and FFFB strips are wonderful. He hasn't lost a step! More! Encore!Spain continued to evolve as an artist up to his death. The 2 stories here are especially interesting- one isn't totally inked, and in both you get a good look at his pencil art and how disciplined his line had become. Beautiful stuff- he is missed.Lots of Crumb, mostly (again) sketch book stuff. One nicely finished color 2-pager, but no classics like "Uncle Bob's Mid-life Crisis!". Or even Flakey Foont. Lots of 1-pagers with Aline, as they continue to hone their Burns and Allen routine. But R. says "I don't draw comics anymore, except with you...", so if that's the price to see Crumb panels, oh well.The jam sessions look good and are very much akin to the old ones, a pleasant surprise. My single favorite drawing in the whole book is the beehived, weary-looking Long Island siren (panel 1 page 3- "Sins of Johnny Donuts"). That Crumb sure knows the human condition!Front cover- colored nicely, no great shakes. Back- a muddy Moscoso.People who weren't there to experience the sea-change that ZAP and the UG's brought about, or were part of, in the 60's, will have NO IDEA of their impact on the counter-culture and society in general back then.It is hard to believe, in this age of "everything goes" on the internet, that there were people in power, worried that underground comics would destroy the fabric of society and lead to anarchy and sex in the streets. Ah, those were the days!ZAP 16 cannot really show that impact- nothing can.It can serve as a pleasant reminder of those days for us old fogies, of going to the Head Shop for the newest UG's while waiting for the Revolution, and having our minds pulled open by the ZAP crew.I hope that the proceeds will go to those that need it most- mainly S Clay Wilson. You can google sclaywilsontrust to find or help out with his special needs.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Thank you all.By T. W. RichWonderful and sad - I've read every issue as it was released - from # 0 to this one (over five decades...? Man ...) Sad to loose Spain - Glad the editors decided to leave his work unfinished- Wilson, Crumb, Sheldon .... All the rest ... Thanks and Goodnight.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. great issue, one of the best and lastBy Michael Mcdadewow! great issue, one of the best and last, but. i understand that provgob.pub is going to do an e-mag, will keep you posted. The final, previously-only-available-in-a limited/collector's-edition issue of the the most important comic book series of all time! This blowout issue not only includes work by all eight Zap artists (plus a collaboration with cartoonist Aline Kominsky), but also three double-page jams by the group. Plus: Zaprsquo;s first-and-only color section, featuring comics by R. Crumb and Gilbert Shelton (his final Zap Wonder Wart-hog episode, no less). Paul Mavrides provides an alternately embellished version of Gilbert Sheltonrsquo;s and his Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers episode, ldquo;Phineas Becomes a Suicide Bomberrdquo; (originally inked in the Complete Zap by Shelton). Front cover by R. Crumb. Back cover by Moscoso. Black white with 16 pages of color From Publishers WeeklyAn iconic anthology bows out in a long-unpublished final issue featuring all of its premier artists, showcasing the differing styles that made each creator famous. Crumb's self-reflective comics (often published alongside those of Aline Kominsky-Crumb, the first woman ever to appear in Zap) are strong, with his distinctive griminess and nervous faces cowering under piles of looming word balloons. Kominsky-Crumb's thin lines contrast well against her husband's dense drawings, and their discussions are often touching in their bald honesty. Shelton lampoons the 21st-century need for all heroes to kill in the last Wonder Wart-Hog strip. His lines in this and another story, about a loser who becomes a terrorist to get laid, have a Mad magazine feel. Wilson's shock comics are the weak link for today's readers now that nudity is common in mainstream monthly books. While many have fond memories of Zap as one of the first to break the rules, much of the transgression is now common or unnecessary. (Feb.)\nAbout the AuthorBorn in Philadelphia, R.

    Copyright 2013 Shawn Patrick Gilmore THE INVENTION OF THE GRAPHIC NOVEL: UNDERGROUND COMIX AND CORPORATE AESTHETICS BY SHAWN PATRICK GILMORE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael Rothberg, Chair Professor Cary Nelson Associate Professor James Hansen Associate Professor Stephanie Foote ii Abstract This dissertation explores what I term the invention of the graphic novel, or more specifically, the process by which stories told in comics (or graphic narratives) form became longer, more complex, concerned with deeper themes and symbolism, and formally more coherent, ultimately requiring a new publication format, which came to be known as the graphic novel. This format was invented in fits and starts throughout the twentieth century, and I argue throughout this dissertation that only by examining the nuances of the publishing history of twentieth-century comics can we fully understand the process by which the graphic novel emerged. In particular, I show that previous studies of the history of comics tend to focus on one of two broad genealogies: 1) corporate, commercially-oriented, typically superhero-focused comic books, produced by teams of artists; 2) individually-produced, counter-cultural, typically autobiographical underground comix and their subsequent progeny. In this dissertation, I bring these two genealogies together, demonstrating that we can only truly understand the evolution of comics toward the graphic novel format by considering the movement of artists between these two camps and the works that they produced along the way.

  • Jacaber-Kastor 2019.Pdf
    Jacaeber Kastor: Psychedelic Sun By Carlo McCormick In turns perplexing, disorienting, wondrous and utterly beguiling, Jacaeber Kastor’s drawings make you look, look again and then still more, trying to find your way in their miasmic magic until at last, well, you discover the special pleasure of being truly lost. And when you think you’re done, when you’ve decoded the esoteric and abstract, conjured all the forms and meanings from these oceans of latency, answered the call of otherness as if it were the sphinx’s riddle- turn the work or flip your head, around and around, because there is no single perspective to read Kastor’s psychedelic topography: it is an entwined and constantly unfolding omniverse that has no right side up or upside down. If, in the course of your wanderings through Kastor’s meandering poetics of line and space, you come across the unexpected, the oddly familiar or the impossibly alien- for indeed you surely will, quite possible all at once with overwhelming simultaneity- and you ask yourself how did you even come to get here, you might also ask how indeed did this artist arrive at just such a place him- self. Make no mistake about it, Jacaeber Kastor is an intrepid voyager of body and mind, an adventurer without destination or designation, a man without return for even when he has somehow been there before he understands it as different, everything nuanced with the subtle shifts of impercep tible change, actuality always just beyond the tiny grasp of appearance, reason or replication. His art, like the convolutions of a restless mind guiding the inspired hand of uncertainty, is the tracings of a mind- traveler, a map to the nowhere that is everywhere, something so personally idiosyncratic that it marks a shared commons where likeness meets in a zone of compatible dissimilarity.

Supervisor: Brad Vice, Ph.D. The object of this undergraduate thesis is to map the development of sequential art, comics, in the form of respectable art form influencing contemporary other artistic areas. Modern comics were developed between the World Wars primarily in the United States of America and therefore became a typical part of American culture. The thesis is divided into three major parts. The first part called Sequential Art as a Medium discusses in brief the history of sequential art, which dates back to ancient world. The chapter continues with two sections analyzing the comic medium from the theoretical point of view. The second part inquires the origin of the comic book industry, its cultural environment, and consequently the birth of modern comic book.

  • Writing About Comics
    NACAE National Association of Comics Art Educators English 100-v: Writing about Comics From the wild assertions of Unbreakable and the sudden popularity of films adapted from comics (not just Spider-Man or Daredevil, but Ghost World and From Hell), to the abrupt appearance of Dan Clowes and Art Spiegelman all over The New Yorker, interesting claims are now being made about the value of comics and comic books. Are they the visible articulation of some unconscious knowledge or desire -- No, probably not. Are they the new literature of the twenty-first century -- Possibly, possibly... This course offers a reading survey of the best comics of the past twenty years (sometimes called “graphic novels”), and supplies the skills for reading comics critically in terms not only of what they say (which is easy) but of how they say it (which takes some thinking). More importantly than the fact that comics will be touching off all of our conversations, however, this is a course in writing critically: in building an argument, in gathering and organizing literary evidence, and in capturing and retaining the reader's interest (and your own). Don't assume this will be easy, just because we're reading comics. We'll be working hard this semester, doing a lot of reading and plenty of writing. The good news is that it should all be interesting. The texts are all really good books, though you may find you don't like them all equally well. The essays, too, will be guided by your own interest in the texts, and by the end of the course you'll be exploring the unmapped territory of literary comics on your own, following your own nose.

  • 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.
