Comic and Scholarship

The semester is over and now we will get to the hard work of considering the good, the bad, and the ugly of the class this semester. While I and my colleague felt good about some of the aspect of the class, we struggled with others. We will touch base about what the future holds later. What I really want to do is point out that overall, our efforts are paying off. This October our article on the transition from pulp era adventure magazine to golden age comics will be published in Studies in American Culture. If that was not enough, this month we were quoted in CNN.COM story on the Ten Cent Plague, a new book about the anti-comic scare of the 1950s. Follow the link for more information.
