Comic Book New Releases April 17

April Update: We are now handling new release comics a bit differently. Most new release comics will be offered as "New" rather than assigned indivdual grades. A comic that we offer listed as "New" without a grade could fall anywhere between Very Fine and Near Mint unless otherwise specified in the listing. Many incentive variants and higher value new releases will continue to be assigned grades.

    1st printing. By James J Donahue. In recent years, studios like Marvel and DC have seen enormous success transforming comics into major motion pictures. At the same time, bookstores such as Barnes & Noble in the US and Indigo in Canada have made more room for comic books and graphic novels on their shelves. Yet despite the sustained popular appeal and the heightened availability of these media, Indigenous artists continue to find their work given little attention by mainstream publishers, booksellers, production houses, and academics. Nevertheless, Indigenous artists are increasingly turning to graphic narratives, with publishers like Native Realities LLC and Highwater Press carving out ever more space for Indigenous creators. In Indigenous Comics and Graphic Novels: Studies in Genre, James J. Donahue investigates the disparities of representation in the fields of comics studies and comics publishing. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8 1/2-in., 172 pages, Text (with B&W Illustrations). Cover price $25.00.
