E-grāmata: Routledge Companion to Gender and Sexuality in Comic Book Studies

"Yet another milestone in Aldamas overturning of long held misconceptions that the world of comics and graphic novels lacks space for marginalized voices and diverse perspectives, this collection is essential reading for anyone studying and, more importantly, making comics. While taking a comprehensive look back at gender and sexuality in cartooning of the past, the carefully curated essays suggest a future for comics where previously underrepresented voices will all have equal opportunity to take center stage"

Matt Silady, Eisner-nominated comics creator and Chair of the MFA in Comics program, California College of the Arts

"A veritable cornucopia of sophisticated, intersectional analysis that digs deep into the history of the comics industry and the sequential art medium to examine how gender and sexuality have shaped our understanding of storytelling, our worldview, and ourselves. This is a necessary compendium that will continue to push comics forward."

Barbra Dillon, Fanbase Press Editor-in-Chief

"With its overarching intersectional framework used to investigate a medium uniquely suited for both personal exploration and collective expression, this volume goes way beyond a clichéd understanding of comics as a playground for pulp anxieties. A remarkably comprehensive tome on an elusive subject!"
