This book explores the field of Comics Studies in South Asia,
illuminating an art form in which there has been a much-documented
explosion of recent interest. A diverse group of scholars from
Asia, Europe, and North America examine aesthetics, politics, and
ideology in sequential art about South Asia and South Asian
America. The book features contributions which address gender
violence; authoritarian politics; caste discrimination;
environmentalism; racism; and urban street art, amongst others. The
unique interdisciplinary span of the volume considers mass popular
comic books as well as the graphic novel. This edited volume would
be of interest to those studying the influence of graphic novels,
graphic narratives, and comic books in South Asia, as well as
researchers interested in what these forms might have to say about
important issues in society. This book was originally published as
a special issue of the South Asian Review journal.
