COMIC RELIEF

What comic books or graphic novels are a good read?

I have been out of the comic book world for 15 years and a friend recommended Josh Whedon’s Astonishing X-men vol 1 – 4. I loved it and looking for more comic books that are just a fun read with great art. What do you recommend?

I personally loe astonishing x men by josh whedons story line. I loe how kitty pryde sacrafises her self to save the world and infuses to a bullet. I would recommend spidergirl that is a great read about the future of alot of the marvel charecters especialy spiderman. This is a summary of the story.

Good Apollo, I’m Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through The Eyes of Madness $4.22 There’s a lot to be said for continuity and high concept, and Coheed and Cambria have invented an elaborate geeky parallel sci-fi world that spread over four CDs. If you follow the story line, it unfolds like some punk Harry Potter series; equally ambitious and didactic and almost as tightly written as the Moody Blues’ “Days of Future Passed.” You can also listen to each of the albums without a th…

Graphic Novels and Multimodal Literacy $138.61 Graphic novels have attracted much media attention in recent years. Blockbuster movies based on graphic novels and the popularity of manga have increased their visibility. Bookstore sales and library circulations of graphic novels have risen markedly. Having lost the stigma of the lowly comic book, graphic novels are firmly entrenched in pop culture. This book examines high school students responses to an art graphic novel and how those responses change after students learn conventions employed in the comic format. Readers responses were analyzed based on Rosenblatts theory transactional analysis, Isers theory of gap filling, and Cullers theory of conventions, plus Kresss concept of multimodal literacy framed in semiotic theory. Meshing print literacy and visual literacy, graphic novels exemplify a type of multimodal text requiring multimodal literacy skills. Acquiring these skills is essential to be considered literate in the 21st century. This book provides a rationale for teachers to expand the concept of literacy beyond print by including a variety of multimodal texts such as graphic novels in the curriculum.

Graphic Novels: A Fun Read. $115.71 The graphic novel is not new; it seems to have its root in the comic book and illustrative book medium. Today, though, this medium is enticing many readers who may not otherwise read to pick up a book and read. Many of these readers are considered reluctant or perhaps have poor English language skills for whatever reason. I reviewed several district statistics and then went on to review several books that had been seen in libraries and in the collections of books sent to teachers for review. From that I developed a survey for both students and librarians. Results from those surveys were mixed. While the conclusions were not definitive, I felt that the effort was worth the work. Students have much more to teach me as I continue to interact with them. Author: Flom, Joanne C.
