To create a comic is not to illustrate words, but to create narrative diagrams and transform strokes into imaging words. The infinite array of possibilities that the merging of text and pictures provides is a garden of forking paths that critics have just started to explore. This is an art that operates as the crossroads of various disciplines, but whose specifications require a thorough understanding of its unique mechanisms. The explosion of experimental works and the incorporation of previously marginal (or nonexistent) genres and themes in comics have enriched an already fruitful art in ways that continue to surprise both readers and critics. This collection of essays offers a space of reflection on the cultural, social, historical, and ideological dimensions of comics. With this in the background, the book focuses on three main areas: the origins and definitions of comics; the formal tools of the medium; and authors and their works. The historical and formal approach to comics, as shown here, is still essential and the debate about the origins and definition is still present, but two thirds of this collection formulate other treatments that scholars had not started to tackle until recently. Does this mean that the study of comics has finally reached the necessary confidence to abandon the artistic legitimization of the medium? Or are they just new self defense mechanisms through alliances with other fields of academic interest? This book will add to the debate on comics, as did the international conference that led to it. It provides a channel of communication with an art, a two-headed medium that, like the god Janus, operates as a hinge, as a meeting point, as a bridge between pictorial and literary expression.

It’s spring break, and Max and Chad are thrilled to be in North Platte to visit Carly and Molly for a whole week! Carly can’t wait to introduce her cousins to her friend, Kate. Fun, here we come! But, before the fun hardly starts, Aunt Susie and Carly volunteer the whole group to clean out Kate’s great-grandma’s apartment? Her PINK apartment? Bye-bye fun. This is the Double Cousins we’re talking about, though, and as usual, they manage to turn it all into an adventure and a mystery. Buffalo Bill himself gave Kate’s Pawnee ancestor a very special wedding present—a necklace that came from the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia. But where is it? And Earl, Slim’s old buddy from his train jumping days, sure seems like a nice guy, but will he tempt Slim to go back to that old life? And what about Shelly, Kate’s cousin? There’s something not quite right there, either. When some money goes missing, they ALL fall under suspicion. Can they find the Russian Jewels, finish the job they’ve started at Gigi Pinky’s, and figure out who the real thief is before it all blows up in their faces? Come join the hijinks and make some new friends along with Max, Carly, Molly, and Chad.
