Some chapters focus on comic superheroes, from lesser-known protagonists like Cyborg and Helen Killer to classics such as Batgirl and Batman; many more explore the amazing range of graphic narratives revolving around disability, covering famous names such as Alison Bechdel and Chris Ware, as well as less familiar artists like Keiko Tobe and Georgia Webber. The volume also offers a broad spectrum of represented disabilities: amputation, autism, blindness, deafness, depression, Huntington's, multiple sclerosis, obsessive-compulsive disorder, speech impairment, and spinal injury. A number of the essays collected here show how comics continue to implicate themselves in the objectification and marginalization of persons with disabilities, perpetuating stale stereotypes and stigmas. At the same time, others stress how this medium simultaneously offers unique potential for transforming our understanding of disability in truly profound ways."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008100153 650 0 $a Graphic novels $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a People with disabilities in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh94007843 650 7 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869145 650 7 $a Graphic novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00946656 650 7 $a People with disabilities in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01057365 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM $x General. $x General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM $x Comics & Graphic Novels. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x People with Disabilities. $2 bisacsh 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 700 1 $a Foss, Chris, $d 1963- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2015052465 700 1 $a Gray, Jonathan W., $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2012054200 700 1 $a Whalen, Zach, $d 1979- $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2008000658 830 0 $a Literary disability studies. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2016053527 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171223053527.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A9C928D8E7B011E78369235E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
