RESUMO Este trabalho teve como objetivo adquirir conhecimentos mais profundos em relação às histórias em quadrinhos, a fim de conhecer seus elementos e linguagem. Assim sendo possível aplicar o sense, com o intuito de potencializar a leitura do quadrinho, tornando a experiência imersiva e gerando uma empatia com os personagens e com os sentimentos exprimidos na história. Para tal, se empregou métodos de pesquisas, coleta de dados e etapa processuais e o estudo do Design Sinestésico, ao qual foi extraído o conceito da utilização dos cinco sentidos, o sense. Com intenção de viabilizar soluções para que o sense fosse aplicado, possibilitando um estudo que ocorra a viabilização da exploração dos sentidos em uma mídia que é predominantemente visual e que haja uma exploração maior da utilização de mais sentidos nas histórias em quadrinhos. Palavras-chave: História em quadrinhos, Sense, Design, Produção gráfica ABSTRACT This project had as objective to acquire a deeper knowledge related to graphic novels, in order to know its elements and language.

The exhibit grew out of initial discussions between GEM President Melissa (Missy) Bowersox and Davis three years earli- er. They had lamented together the absence of a force like the late writer-editor Dwayne McDuffie, and together they seized on the idea of Milestones. “When Missy asked me to curate something, the easiest way to go was to do Milestones retrospective because Milestone has always been inclusive.

ABSTRACT FATAL ATTRACTIONS: AMERICAN COMIC BOOKS AND THE AIDS CRISIS June 2015 Sean A. Guynes, B.A., Western Washington University M.A., University of Massachusetts Boston Advisor: Aaron Lecklider, Ph.D. Second Reader: Rachel Rubin, Ph.D. Between 1988 and 1994 American comic books engaged the politics, problematics, and crises of the AIDS epidemic by inserting the virus and its social, cultural, and epidemiological effects on gay men into the four-color fantasies of the superhero genre. As the comic-book industry was undergoing major internal changes that allowed for more mature, adult storylines, creators challenged the Comics Code Authority’s 1954 sanction against the representation of homosexuality to create, for the first time, openly gay characters. Creators’ efforts were driven by a desire to recognize the reality of gay men’s lived experiences, especially crucial in the epidemic time of the AIDS crisis.

  • Comics Studies Here And
    20 “Am I Doing the Right Thing?” Milestone Comics, Black Nationalism, and the Cosmopolitics of Static Sean Guynes-Vishniac Milestone Media’s Static (1993–1997) was an unprecedented dramati- zation of the complexity of black youth subjectivity in comics. Static addressed major youth concerns, such as drugs, sex, sexuality, violence, and physical and mental health. Attaching itself to Milestone’s mul- ticultural sensibility and reecting the company’s goal to bring black experiences to mainstream comics, Static made black youth central to confronting issues facing American youth and black communities in the 1990s. In the pages of Static, black youth didn’t generate the problems but rather, in the form of the black superteen Static and through his friendships with black and white men and women, black youth and their cross-racial relationships became the locus for confronting social prob- lems. Despite being a comic steeped in the multicultural ethos of the 1990s and of Milestone’s particular multicultural mission, the specic role of blackness and of Static’s relationship to black politics was never far from the comic’s narrative. In fact, although Eric Grifn, the founder of the Afrocentric comics publisher Ania, declaimed that, “Basically what Milestone does is create white characters painted Black. They’re not culturally aware” (qtd. in Brown 49), it would not be hyperbolic to say that Static was all about grappling with what it meant to be black in urban America. Following the example of several recent works of comics scholarship by Jose Alaniz, André M. Carrington, and Ramzi Fawaz that have quite usefully problematized the representation and political potential of “dif- ference,” or what Fawaz (quoting intellectual historian David Hollinger) dubs “negotiating the experience of otherness” in superhero comics (16), I argue that the series Static unfolded a cosmopolitan project that staged transformative encounters between characters of different colors, creeds, genders, and sexualities.
