This work takes an in-depth look at the world of comic books
through the eyes of a Native American reader and offers frank
commentary on the medium's cultural representation of the Native
American people. It addresses a range of portrayals, from the
bloodthirsty barbarians and noble savages of dime novels, to
formulaic secondary characters and sidekicks, and, occasionally,
protagonists sans paternal white hero, examining how and why Native
Americans have been consistently marginalized and misrepresented in
comics. Chapters cover early representations of Native Americans in
popular culture and newspaper comic strips, the Fenimore Cooper
legacy, the ""white"" Indian, the shaman, revisionist portrayals,
and Native American comics from small publishers, among other
topics.
