ABSTRACTIn Summer 2023, we sat down with Terri Libenson, New York Times bestselling author of The Pajama Diaries and the Emmie and Friends series. She shared with us a bit about her early interest in comics, her journey into comics-making, and the difference in her readers as a comic strip creator, and a middle-grade cartoonist. Together we think about what it is about the form that lends itself so well to processing traumatic experiences in a way that can be both creative and therapeutic. We also discussed her process, what she’s currently reading, and we hear a little about her upcoming work and what she still wants to do in her series.KEYWORDS: Girlsmiddle-gradetherapypsychologythought bubble Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Notes1.

This article offers a practical and theoretical exploration of a (highly) specialised type of comics re-mediation, namely, audio described (AD) comics for the Blind and Partially Sighted (BPS). Building on relevant work in comics studies and translation studies, it is argued that translation activity, broadly seen to include interlingual as well as intersemiotic translation (Jakobson 1959), helps rewrite original works. Translation is defined as a blend, or a hybrid mental space combining characteristics of source and target contexts. As such, it entails the imbrication of personal memory, collective memory and the diffusion of a translator’s memory in linguistic codes, social milieus, textual traditions and digital capabilities at play. AD exhibits the same blend logic in that it selectively contains visual source-text information in target-text audio performance. An exploratory comics AD pilot project at The Cartoon Museum (London) serves as an exemplar. The project consists of three phases: a focused interview with the creative team (describer, curator, comic artists); scripting and performance of three AD samples; and collecting feedback from BPS visitors. The project reveals how collective memory started to form in this dialogic process and, ultimately, which aspects of AD practice may be deemed to be effective.

ABSTRACTThe present research aims at tracing the human-machine interaction and interpersonal relationship in the substantial realm of modern car culture with a focus on human beings’ dependency on cars as petro-products through Monster Motors (2015) by Brian Lynch and Nick Roche. With allusions to maestros of horror viz. Frankenstein and Dracula, this comic details the adventures of ace mechanic Vic Frankenstein and his android assistant IGOR against the vampire car Cadillacula which sucks gasoline out of other cars. In his triangular theory of love, proposes three components of love, viz. Intimacy, passion, and commitment. Modern car culture manifests in people’s love for cars. Thus, this research is an attempt to showcase people’s affinity with cars as an implication of their affinity with petroleum through Sternberg’s three components of love. Thus, the research establishes the aggressive consumption of petroleum used in cars as a derivative of Sternberg’s passion component and machine-intimacy of humans as a synonym of petro-intimacy based on intimacy component. Subsequently, the research investigates the decision/commitment component of Sternberg in relation to understanding humans’ determination for cars/petro-products. Here, it scrutinises that petro-horror- an attempt to represent oil’s increasing ubiquity (Tulsi 2020, 159–181) – is a conscious choice that humans make in promoting the car culture.KEYWORDS: Theory of lovemodern car culturepetro-horrorpetro-passionpetro-products Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.

伦菲尔德被描绘成一个汽车迷,他瞥见了德古拉城堡里传说中的仆人伦菲尔德。杰基尔是一辆智能汽车,在黑暗的小巷里变得相当巨大和怪异。“先生”这个名字。“混合”是指其功能的混合。此外,这款巨大的交通工具是对r·l·史蒂文森1886年的哥特式小说《化身博士》中同名人物的颂歌。林奇将隐形轿车描述为一种邪恶的生物,具有与周围环境融为一体的强大能力。它的特点是一个骗子和骗子,唯一的弱点是失去装甲进入隐身模式。这是对H.G. Well的《看不见的人》(Wells引文,1897)的一个典故。Wheelwolf是指神话中的狼人。根据林奇的说法,迷你范赫尔辛是亚伯拉罕·范赫尔辛的怪物车外观,他是德古拉的不懈追逐者,帮助结束了德古拉的统治。根据林奇的说法,艾普丽尔是亚伯拉罕·范·赫尔辛的女儿,也是米尼凡·赫尔辛的人类伴侣。根据Statista研究部门(Citation2023)的数据,全球汽车销量从2018年的6670万辆左右增长到2022年的6720万辆左右。莫罗这个角色可能参考了h·g·韦尔的小说《莫罗博士岛》(Wells引文,1896)中同名的角色。莫罗是一位声名狼藉的生理学家,以他可怕的活体解剖实验而闻名。林奇饰演的莫罗怂恿弗兰肯斯坦“造一个人”来协助他。因此,典故可能是一种可能性。沥青是砾石、岩石和被沥青粘在一起的泥土的混合物。汽油是从石油中提炼出来的可燃液态碳氢化合物的混合物。石油现实主义是“石油在日常生活中几乎无处不在,试图使我们的石油主体性陌生化或变得陌生”的想法(Bellamy citation, 2017,260)。人们通常认为,在社会关系中主观构建的亲密关系是为了使其顺利运作。“自我包含他人”(IOS)是衡量个体之间亲密程度的图形工具,由Aron、Aron和Smollan在一篇被高度引用的论文(Aron et al.)中开发。《人格与社会心理学杂志》上的一篇论文。根据Shimp和Maden (Citation1988)的观点,消费者客体关系是“消费者与消费对象(产品、品牌、商店等)形成关系,其范围从反感的感觉到轻微的喜爱,一直到人与人之间的关系,相当于爱”(163)。“Orang Minyak”,在马来语中被粗略地翻译为“油人”,是一种传说中的超自然生物,因在夜间绑架妇女,然后强奸并杀害她们而臭名昭著。人们相信这种生物身上覆盖着一层闪亮的黑色油——很可能是原油——来隐藏它的身份。汽车恐怖,混合了机械和神话来表示汽车人格化的恐怖,是斯蒂芬·金小说的一贯主题,从夜班(1978)开始。在逻辑和数学中,传递律是“if aRb and bRc, then aRc”,其中R是一个特定的关系,a、b、c是变量/对象。

ABSTRACTThis article examines two recent Israeli webcomics and explores how each has introduced new modes of graphic communication in Israeli comics. Both are rooted in the Israeli cultural milieu but they reject the forms and substance traditionally associated with Israeli comics and graphic novels. In particular, I analyse Barlev’s use of anthropomorphism and Nachmany’s use of superhero parody in order to offer novel critiques of Israeli society while also expanding the range and scope of the Israeli comic book and graphic narrative marketplace. I conclude the article by offering a tentative assessment of what it is about webcomics that has facilitated both of these works and how Nachmany’s and Barlev’s popularity can lead to future novel expressions in Israeli comics.KEYWORDS: Webcomicsanthropomorphismsuperhero parodyIsraelIsraeli comics Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.

By early January 2023, the coalition began implementing a comprehensive legal reform put forward by Yariv Levin, the Minister of Justice, and Simcha Rothman, the chair of the Constitution, Law and Justice committee.

ABSTRACTIn this essay, I will examine the co-existence of different styles of drawing in Stone Fruit by Lee Lai (Lai, 2021). I will argue that this graphic novel uses two styles of drawing to produce different space times which can be better understood through a discussion of Bakhtin’s idea of the Chronotope. (Bakhtin 2011) I will compare this use of drawing to the drawing styles present in Onwards Towards Our Noble Deaths by Shigeru Mizuki (Mizuki and Allen, 2011) and argue that these comics use style to activate different chronotopic space times in order to deepen the reader's understanding of the interpersonal relationships between characters. I will consider the implications for both the drawn and drawing body in these comics, in the context of the history of naturalistic forms of representational drawing in manga and the practice of genre-splicing and ‘swiping’ in alternative comics. I will examine ways in which the movement between two styles of drawing form a structuring element of these narratives and argue that this movement is essential to communicating the meaning of these comics.KEYWORDS: Narrative drawing theorydrawing stylechronotopesgraphic novelsmanga Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).
在这篇文章中,我将研究李来(Lai, 2021)在《核果》中不同风格的绘画共存。我认为这部图画小说使用了两种绘画风格来产生不同的时空,这可以通过讨论巴赫金的时空概念来更好地理解。(Bakhtin 2011)我将把这种绘画的使用与Shigeru Mizuki (Mizuki and Allen, 2011)在《向我们高贵的死亡前进》中呈现的绘画风格进行比较,并认为这些漫画使用风格来激活不同的时间空间时间,以加深读者对人物之间人际关系的理解。我将考虑这些漫画中绘制的和绘制的身体的含义,在漫画中表现绘画的自然主义形式的历史背景下,以及在另类漫画中进行类型拼接和“滑动”的实践。我将研究两种绘画风格之间的运动形成这些叙事的结构元素的方式,并认为这种运动对于传达这些漫画的意义至关重要。关键词:叙事绘画理论;绘画风格;时代性地形小说;

ABSTRACTThis essay explores the haunting shadows of coloniality through the lens of shame and grief. Highlighting the graphic novel Grass by Keum Suk Gendry-Kim, I trace the diasporic linkages between gendered violence, colonial amnesia, and the patriarchal silencing of the stories of ‘comfort women.’ I argue that the search for legibility and homecoming trouble shame, grief, and memory. Shame and the female body play a central role in the narrative and visual framework of Gendry-Kim’s graphic novel.

摘要本文透过羞耻与悲伤的镜头,探索殖民时代挥之不去的阴影。我以Keum Suk Gendry-Kim的图画小说《草》为重点,追溯了性别暴力、殖民失忆症和父权制对“慰安妇”故事的沉默之间的流散联系。“我认为,对易读性和返乡感的追求会带来羞耻、悲伤和记忆。羞耻和女性身体在Gendry-Kim的漫画小说的叙事和视觉框架中发挥了核心作用。它挑战我们重新考虑我们对历史的理解,通过参与破坏历史的羞耻。这种另类的记忆档案很重要,因为它们阐明了历史框架的排除因素,从女性的角度记录了关于家庭、流散、流离失所及其后果的故事,这些故事被置于战争遗留下来的挥之不去的阴影中。关键词:性别暴力、慰安妇小说、羞耻、悲伤披露声明作者未发现潜在的利益冲突。kim Keum-Suk Gendry-Kim (Citation2019), Grass, 8.2。Theresa Hak Kyung Cha,听写,33.3分。二战期间“慰安妇”所经历的跨代创伤在冷战时期的营地(kijichon)女性中引起了反响。被称为“阴影中的女人”的慰安妇和营地妇女都参与了国家批准的军队卖淫活动,突出了厌女症和父权制。二战期间和之后的父权结构以民族主义的名义操纵历史,转移和抹去这些女性的尸体。参见高木J.

ABSTRACTThe concept of liminality is fundamentally borrowed from anthropology to explore its application in literary and cultural studies, which remains largely understudied to this date. Liminality essentially signifies a state of in-betweenness characterised by significant factors, such as uncertainty, ambiguity, anxiety, loss of previous values, identity-crisis, isolation and dilemma. The present paper intends to investigate the tropes of liminality in the graphic novel as well as its application to understand the process of transformation of the protagonist as expressed through grids, gutters and panels by employing Victor Turner’s ‘Theory of Liminality’. Further, the later part is dedicated to explore the silhouettes of activism using Turner’s concept of ‘anti-structure’, through the theme of vegetation visible throughout the novel. The present work not only attempts to trace the liminality of the protagonist in Gendry-Kim’s Grass(2019) but also ventures into establishing the liminal status of the genre of graphic novel itself. The study, thus, presents us an opportunity to explore one of the aggressively silenced and traumatic histories of ‘comfort women issue’ through the lens of Gendry-Kim’s recently published graphic novel Grass(2019).KEYWORDS: LiminalityVictor turneranti-structuregraphic novelsexual violencetrauma Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

Comics and graphic novels have not typically been foregrounded in accounts of Anthropocene fictions. This article argues that speculative comics are particularly suited to visualizing the Anthropocene through their verbal-visual strategies for representing multiple scales of space and time. Defined as the era in which human-driven processes have become detectable in the Earth’s geological record, the concept of the Anthropocene has also been challenged by postcolonial and Indigenous theorists for presuming an undifferentiated humanity responsible for ecological crises. Speculative comics offer strategies for representing multiple scales of space and time that call into question the ‘human’ as a geological force. While autobiographical and documentary comics represent the scale of individual human experience, speculative comics feature nonhuman spaces and times on multiple, asynchronous scales. This article first contextualizes the representation of space and time in speculative Anglophone comics from early superhero comics to the contemporary period, then focusing on three case studies drawn from contemporary Anglophone comics: Grant Morrison and Chris Burnham’s Nameless (Citation2015), Warren Ellis and Jason Howard’s Trees (2014–2016, 2020), and Ram V and Filipe Andrade’s The Many Deaths of Laila Starr (2021).

In visual narratives like comics, the most overt form of perspective-taking comes in panels that directly depict the viewpoints of characters in the scene. We therefore examined these subjective viewpoint panels (also known as point-of-view panels) in a corpus of over 300 annotated comics from Asia, Europe, and the United States. In line with predictions that Japanese manga use a more 'subjective' storytelling style than other comics, we found that more manga use subjective panels than other comics, with high proportions of subjective panels also found in Chinese, French, and American comics. In addition, panels with more 'focal' framing, i.e. micro panels showing close ups and/or amorphic panels showing views of the environment, had higher proportions of subjective panels than panels showing wider views of scenes. These findings further show that empirical corpus analyses provide evidence of cross-cultural variation and reveal relationships across structures in the visual languages of comics.
