This book is part of a nuanced two-volume examination of the ways
in which violence in comics is presented in different texts,
genres, cultures and contexts. Representing Acts of Violence in
Comics raises questions about depiction and the act of showing
violence, and discusses the ways in which individual moments of
violence develop, and are both represented and embodied in comics
and graphic novels. Contributors consider the impact of gendered
and sexual violence, and examine the ways in which violent acts can
be rendered palatable (for example through humour) but also how
comics can represent trauma and long lasting repercussions for both
perpetrators and victims. This will be a key text and essential
reference for scholars and students at all levels in Comics
Studies, and Cultural and Media Studies more generally.
