Female Cartoonists in the United States: Bad Girls and Invisible Women: Routledge Studies in Gender, Sexuality, and Comics
Autor Hélène Tisonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2023
From rabid feminists to blundering teenagers to dyke avengers and pregnant butches, from political satire to memoirs to troubling sexual tales, from caricature to the clear line, from realism to minimalism and abstraction – they have done it all. This book looks at the work of over thirty authors who have challenged the boys’ club of comics in the US and whose stories shed a revealing light on contemporary society, through countercultural ripostes to the patriarchy, raw or humorous confessions, deconstruction of femininity, stories of vulnerability that offer powerful counterpoints to the "super bodies" of mainstream comics, non-white and queer cartoonists "drawing back" and more.
This is a key title for students and scholars in the fields of Comics Studies, Literature and Women and Gender Studies.

Recenzii
"In this illuminating book, Hélène Tison looks at the work of various US women cartoonists from the 1970s to the present. Tison examines individual talents, but also turns her lens on these artists’ collective contribution to the evolving medium of comics, and to the ongoing conversations about the politics of gender. An indispensable guide to anyone seriously interested in comics."
