  • Sandman, Aesthetics and Canonisation Today I Want To
    Sandman, Aesthetics and Canonisation Today I want to examine the ways in which Neil Gaiman’s Sandman has used narrative, format and aesthetic to move ever closer to the notion of the literary text. Particularly going to consider how it exploits the author function and enacts the struggle for cultural worth that comics seem consistently engaged in. Sandman is an epic series rewriting a golden-age superhero into an immortal deity. It is best remembered for its mythological content and literary references, and these elements have allowed it to claim its place as a canonised graphic novel (despite not actually being a singular GN but a maxi-series across multiple trade paperbacks!). Neil Gaiman’s authorship and authority dominate the text and epitomise Michel Foucault’s author function. But Sandman also draws heavily on mixed media and artistic variation and these aspects are less often discussed. Far from supporting a singular author function, Sandman’s visual style is multiple and varied. But despite this, in paratexts the artistic contributions are frequently subsumed into Gaiman’s authorship. However, a closer reading demonstrates that in fact this artistic variety destabilises clear-cut authorship and enacts the particular status struggles of comics as a collaborative medium struggling against the graphic novel branding. SLIDE: literary pix Sandman was launched in 1989 and became the flagship title for DC’s new Vertigo imprint. Vertigo’s publications contributed heavily to the mainstream cultural revaluation of comics as graphic novels, and critics such as Candace West have argued that Sandman in particular was instrumental here due to the attention the series received from mainstream media such as Rolling Stone magazine.

  • JM. Dematteis
    BIBLIOGRAFIA ITALIANA DI J. M. DeMATTEIS A cura di: Gabriele ʿTermidoroʾ Perlini - mail: [email protected] Prima stesura: ottobre 2009 - Secondo aggiornamento: gennaio 2021 Ritenuto uno dei più grandi scrittori di Spider-Man, secondo solo a Stan Lee, il nome di J. M. DeMATTEIS è legato indissolubilmente alle gestioni ragnesche degli anni ʿ90 grazie ai cicli di storie in coppia con Sal Buscema e Mark Bagley, cui si annoverano i capolavori "The Child Within ", "Best Of Enemies " e "The Gift ". Scrivendo di un Peter Parker più adulto e massiccio come mai sino ad allora, l'autore si era aggiudicato qualche anno prima il successo grazie alla tragica saga "Kraven's Last Hunt " mentre, poco dopo, sarà la volta della miniserie "The Lost Years ". Sul fronte editoriale opposto si trovano lavori più divertenti ed ironici quali la Justice League International, scritta nella seconda metà degli anni ʿ80 insieme al fidato Keith Giffen, che ha valso alla coppia la nomination per l'Eisner Award come miglior albo singolo grazie al primo numero della loro gestione. Sempre per le più note case editrici americane di fumetti si ricordano gli indelebili cicli di Captain America e The Defenders per la Marvel ed i personaggi mistici della DC quali The Spectre, Dr. Fate, The Phantom Stranger e la Justice League Dark. Brevi incursioni si sono comunque avute anche in personaggi più classici come Batman e Superman. Per le case editrici minori citiamo la sfortunata Abadazad, The Stardust Kid, Hero Squared e The Life And Times Of Savior 28. Difficile poi dimenticare i progetti più personali dell'autore come l'evocativo Moonshadow, Blood: A Tale, Mercy, Seekers Into The Mystery e l'autobiografico Brooklyn Dreams.

Suurennuslasin alla ovat erityisesti angloamerikkalaiset sarjakuvaromaanit ja kognitiiviset henkilöhahmoteoriat. Tutkimuskysymykset kiteytyvät siihen, kuinka irralliset kuva- ja tekstielementit yhdistetään ajatusrakennelmiksi, jotka sekä muistuttavat että eivät muistuta käsityksiämme todellisista ihmisistä. Koska sarjakuvahahmoista ei ole luotu aiempaa teoriaa, tutkimuksessa luetaan ristiin yhtäältä kirjallisuuden henkilöhahmoteorioita ja toisaalta yleistä sarjakuvateoriaa. Aluksi E.M. Forsterin, W.J. Harveyn, Baruch Hochmanin ja Aleid Fokkeman näkemysten pohjalta kootaan yhtenäinen, lukijan kognitioihin ja merkkidataan perustuva henkilöhahmokäsitys.

    SAVAGE DRAGON: WARFARE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Erik Larsen | 128 pages | 20 Jun 2017 | Image Comics | 9781534303638 | English | Fullerton, United States Savage Dragon: Warfare PDF Book Though he had only been semi-active before, the Dragon officially resigns from the S. Following this, the Dragon fights a Dr. In these appearances, the character of the Dragon remained basically the same as it had been in Graphic Fantasy , with a few details modified such as the inclusion of his wife, who was dead in his previous incarnation. The Fiend can possess living bodies, and his powers are fueled by the capacity for hate of those possessed. Richard Richards' office building. Read a little about our history. Thankfully, his healing factor would mend him back together, and eventually, he would take down the original Overlord in a particularly violent way as revenge. The collection featured stories by the four remaining Image founders Erik Larsen, Todd McFarlane , Marc Silvestri , and Jim Valentino returning to the characters they first created for the company. Initially debuting in a three-issue miniseries, the Savage Dragon comic book met with enough success to justify a monthly series, launched in After a number of serious incidents, including the murder of the superhero Mighty Man and the brutal mauling of SuperPatriot , Darling takes drastic action. As Erik Larsen is occasionally wont to do, Savage Dragon speeds things up—not in the breakneck, action-orgy kind of way that we saw last month, but in order to bring the story up-to-date, since it unfolds in real time and in a real-ish facsimile of the world.
