A freelance cartoonist, John also teaches cartooning to children and is the publisher and editor of Stay Tooned! Magazine, considered the trade journal of the craft. The Comic Mode The comic strip provides a colorful and humorous respite from the serious and often tragic news that precedes it. There are many reasons for reading the “funny pages”; from the basic need to be entertained, to the desire to escape for a moment into what seems a playful combination of a joke and a sequence of images that illustrate the nonsense and play that generates it. Yet, what really constitutes the “comic” in a comic strip? Are they simply funny, as in Blondie, Garfield or Hagar the Horrible? Or do we sense underlying tones of irony, satire, political and social commentary as evidenced in Doonesbury, Non Sequitur, and Between Friends? How are we to understand the double entendre, the sting of wit or the twist of the absurd that infuses so many contemporary comic strips? It would seem that as in dreams, there are many levels to the comic mode. On the first take, the superficial or manifest appeal generates a smile or laughter. But as with many dreams and good jokes, there is the second take, a latent need to establish or defy meaning as embedded within the structure of the images themselves. The paradox or playfulness of the comic strip partially lies in discovering the truth in the nonsensical aspects of day-to-day living.

I am extremely grateful to them all for allowing me to draw on their memories to piece together the complex and entertaining story of the various papers covered in this book. First and foremost I must thank the former staff members of Look and Learn and Fleetway Publications (later IPC Magazines) for making themselves available for long and often rambling interviews, including Bob Bartholomew, Keith Chapman, Doug Church, Philip Gorton, Sue Lamb, Stan Macdonald, Leonard Matthews, Roy MacAdorey, Maggie Meade-King, John Melhuish, Mike Moorcock, Gil Page, Colin Parker, Jack Parker, Frank S. Pepper, Noreen Pleavin, John Sanders and Jim Storrie. My thanks also to Oliver Frey, Wilf Hardy, Wendy Meadway, Roger Payne and Clive Uptton, for detailing their artistic exploits on the magazine. Jenny Marlowe, Ronan Morgan, June Vincent and Beryl Vuolo also deserve thanks for their help filling in details that would otherwise have escaped me. David Abbott and Paul Philips, both of IPC Media, Susan Gardner of the Guild of Aviation Artists and Morva White of The Bible Society were all helpful in locating information and contacts.

  • An Investigation Into the Opinions of Public Library Staff
    AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE OPINIONS OF PUBLIC LIBRARY STAFF ON HOW AND WHERE A GRAPHIC, COMIC, AND CARTOON COLLECTION SHOULD BE SHELVED A study submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Librarianship at THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD by EMILIEBETH ARWEN CADDY September 2009 Abstract Background: In 2006, after a two year review, the Dewey Decimal Classification System [DDCS] decided that all graphic novels, cartoon strips, comic books, manga, fotonovelas, caricatures, and similar material should be stored under one classification code in the Dewey run – 741.5. Literature from before and after this date however, shows that librarians find it extremely difficult to decide where to shelve their graphic collections, and suggests that few if any choose to use the DDCS method. Aims: The study aimed to test whether the DDCS method of classifying, and by extension shelving, graphic novels etc. was adequate by gathering the opinions of librarians across the UK on how and where they currently shelve their graphic novels etc. and what they would do if they were given complete freedom. The hypothesis was that librarians would prefer a method of shelving closer to fiction practice, such as alphabetical or genre-based, to the DDCS method. Methods: The study used a form of triangulation, focusing mainly on an online questionnaire, but also using observational research and interviews. The questionnaire was distributed using snowball sampling and the data collected was analysed using simple data analysis including the creation of graphs. There were seventy respondents to the questionnaire. In addition to questions on shelving practice, respondents were also asked about their fears over content and complaints.

  • Comics Redux
    COMICS REDUX GARY WRIGHT AND Ross B. SHEPAN The University of Texas at Tyler For the past one hundred years, the American public has been entertained by the daily and the Sunday newspaper comic strips. The comics are now recognized as a legitimate and unique pop art form that chronicles the American culture. Research con- cerning reading interests and preferences provide evidence that the comics have a particular attraction to school age children. Reading research also provides evidence that comic art medium can be a viable instructional and recreational component in pub- lic and private schools' literacy curricula. The daily and Sunday comics possess a number of attributes that make them appealing to students and appropriate for instruction. Research evidence is cited that supports the accessibility, the suitability, and the read- ability of the comics' section of newspapers. This article provides a primary focus on the readability levels of 58 contem- porary comic strips and cites specific web pages where weekly comics can be viewed. Blondie and Dagwood, celebrating their irony and foreshadowing, not from great 75th anniversary in the comics, make room literary works but from the odd collection for a score of houseguests from comicdom. of characters that inhabited the funny Can anyone imagine Hagar the Horrible, pages.
