Ian Gordon explains how similar humor played out in comic strips across different cultures and humor styles. By examining Skippy and Ginger Meggs, the book shows a good deal of similarities between American and Australian humor while establishing some distinct differences. In examining the French translation of Perry Winkle, the book explores questions of language and culture. By shifting focus to a later period and looking at the American and British comics entitled Dennis the Menace, two very different comics bearing the same name, Kid Comic Strips details both differences in culture and traditions and the importance of the type of reader imagined by the artist."--Publisher's description. 650 0 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $x Social aspects. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85028867 650 0 $a Humor in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh95003235 650 0 $a Humor in children. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85062947 651 0 $a United States $x Humor. 651 0 $a Australia $x Humor. 651 0 $a France $x Humor. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Humor. 830 0 $a Palgrave studies in comics and graphic novels. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2017028428 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171221035646.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B1BAFAF6E61D11E7AB1B6A7197128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
