It is hard to discuss the current film industry without
acknowledging the impact of comic book adaptations, especially
considering the blockbuster success of recent superhero movies. Yet
transmedial adaptations are part of an evolution that can be traced
to the turn of the last century, when comic strips such as "Little
Nemo in Slumberland" and "Felix the Cat" were animated for the
silver screen. Representing diverse academic fields, including
technoculture, film studies, theater, feminist studies, popular
culture, and queer studies, Comics and Pop Culture presents more
than a dozen perspectives on this rich history and the effects of
such adaptations. Examining current debates and the questions
raised by comics adaptations, including those around authorship,
style, and textual fidelity, the contributors consider the topic
from an array of approaches that take into account representations
of sexuality, gender, and race as well as concepts of
world-building and cultural appropriation in comics from Modesty
Blaise to Black Panther. The result is a fascinating re-imagination
of the texts that continue to push the boundaries of panel, frame,
and popular culture.
