Few resources currently exist showing the cross-disciplinary aspects of comics. Some of the chapters examine the use of Wonder Woman during World War II, the development and culture of French comics, and theories of Locke and Hobbs in regards to the state of nature and the bonds of community. More so, the continual use of comics for the retelling of classic tales and current events demonstrates that the genre has long passed the phase of for children's eyes only. Additionally, this anthology also weaves graphic novels into the dialogue with comics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Annessa Ann Babic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1611475562\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781611475562\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fairleigh Dickinson University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/11\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2014","brand":"Annessa Ann Babic","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44125018128639,"sku":"9781611475562","price":121.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7464a24e-3d89-4075-b444-798414c3ea9b.jpg?v=1687440154","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/comics-as-history-comics-as-annessa-ann-babic-9781611475562","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
