Although they are increasingly finding their audience in museums and galleries, appearing in exhibition catalogs, luxuriously designed albums and magnificent facsimile editions, they are still more: entertainment. The US-American superhero comic in particular is an entertainment product whose complexity, depth, and internal coherence no other mainstream medium in the 20th or 21st century has achieved.\nComics have a long tradition – and mainstream comics actively draw from the rich pool of stories that have been published for decades. The comic books of publishers DC and Marvel, in particular, have been continuing the sagas of their superheroes for over 80 years. Every month. In hundreds of publications. To this day.\nThe amount of comic knowledge that readers need to keep up with the developments of these comic universes is immeasurably large and continues to grow unchecked. But who still understands all the quotes, allusions, and parodies? Why do these stories still find an audience, radiating beyond the comic medium into television and cinema?\nThis book attempts to provide answers using two comic masterpieces. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Batman and Son exemplify a way of storytelling in which past, long-forgotten stories are connected to new, widely branching myths. Conceptually sophisticated. Graphically advanced. And damn entertaining.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783962340131\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e German\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e Used - Like New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Comic-Helden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48156705751377,"sku":"M6-H5QH-CWWT","price":17.21,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0797\/3791\/3681\/products\/61WRJUzsMqL.jpg?v=1709617448","url":"https:\/\/comic-helden.shop\/en-de\/products\/wissen-und-erschliessen-lesarten-bild-textlicher-verweise-im-superhelden-comic-bildnarrative-studien-zu-comics-und-bilderzahlungen","provider":"Comic-Helden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
