Product Information

Comics have conquered America. From our multiplexes, where Marvel and DC movies reign supreme, to our television screens, where comics-based shows like The Walking Dead have become among the most popular in cable history, to convention halls, best-seller lists, Pulitzer Prize-winning titles, and MacArthur Fellowship recipients, comics shape American culture, in ways high and low, superficial, and deeply profound. In American Comics , Columbia professor Jeremy Dauber takes readers through their incredible but little-known history, starting with the Civil War and cartoonist Thomas Nast, creator of the lasting and iconic images of Uncle Sam and Santa Claus; the golden age of newspaper comic strips and the first great superhero boom; the moral panic of the Eisenhower era, the Marvel Comics revolution, and the underground comix movement of the 1960s and '70s; and finally into the twenty-first century, taking in the grim and gritty Dark Knights and Watchmen alongside the brilliant rise of the graphic novel by acclaimed practitioners like Art Spiegelman and Alison Bechdel. Dauber's story shows not only how comics have changed over the decades but how American politics and culture have changed them. Throughout, he describes the origins of beloved comics, champions neglected masterpieces, and argues that we can understand how America sees itself through whose stories comics tell. Striking and revelatory, American Comics is a rich chronicle of the last 150 years of American history through the lens of its comic strips, political cartoons, superheroes, graphic novels, and more.

Reviews
Dauber covers the entire landscape of American comics in this outstanding... thorough--and thoroughly entertaining--work., No detail escapes Dauber...A master storyteller, Dauber shows just how much there is to appreciate in this uniquely American history., With encyclopedic knowledge, Jeremy Dauber brilliantly excavates the story of this art form--warts and all--from its origins right up to the twenty-first century, and strikes cartoon gold. For anyone curious about a medium that's influenced and embedded itself in every part of our culture, American Comics is an essential guidebook. If you are already a connoisseur of comics, be prepared to be enlightened anew., [Dauber] pithily and accurately describes hundreds of individual strips and books, colorfully expanding the limits of conventional definitions. This...chronicle will not soon be matched, let alone surpassed., Sweeping....[C]omprehensive....Dauber's book sets itself apart, and comics enthusiasts will be enthralled., The first book about comics that covers events I was there for, where I'm not shaking my head at how wrong it is. A really good history of all the different strands of comics that came together over the last hundred and twenty years to become 'American Comics.', An entertaining and richly detailed new history of comics...[B]oth opinionated and frequently funny...[T]he story Dauber tells is a mighty one., An entertaining, big...comprehensive survey of the comics industry, from its inception in early twentieth-century newspapers to the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe megamovie crossover empire., Until now one could only dream of an engaging, analytic history encompassing the entire medium. That sounds like a job for Superman, but Jeremy Dauber has gotten there first...His perceptive, critical overview is enlivened by a jaunty style that bops from the political cartoons of Thomas Nast in the 1860s to the demise of an equally influential gadfly, Mad magazine, in 2018., 'This book,' writes Dauber...'tries to cover the whole shebang'...If anything, he understates his intent...[T]here's plenty of delight and revelation for comics fans...Dauber clearly knows and cherishes his subject, and readers who share his passion will find plenty to love., [Dauber is] a spry, humorous storyteller....[he] suggests that the story of American comics is 'right in the middle of its run.' If so, this is a very readable map of where it has been., With encyclopedic knowledge, Jeremy Dauber brilliantly excavates the story of this art form--warts and all--from its origins right up to the twenty-first century, and strikes cartoon gold. For anyone curious about a medium that's influenced and embedded itself in every part of our culture, American Comics is an essential guidebook. If you are already a connoisseur of comics, be prepared to to be enlightened anew., Jeremy Dauber...lets his love for the medium shine through....Dauber makes a compelling argument that we can view, through the lens of comics' content, how America sees itself
