War Comics by Mike Conroy
Examining how stories of conflict have been told in comics down the years, this book covers everything from EC Comics depictions of the "US Civil War" to Joe Saccos reportage on modern, assymmetric, conflicts. Comics from the First and Second World Wars are put in context, with their propaganda-driven plotlines and enemy-bashing superheroes, but the book also covers rebellious, anti-war, underground comix, horror comics, investigative journalism and more thoughtful mainstream developments such as Charleys War. "War Comics: A Graphic History" exposes this fascinating genre in all its many forms.| SKU | Unavailable |
