By Maaheen Ahmed.

Never before have comics seemed so popular or diversified, proliferating across a broad spectrum of genres, experimenting with a variety of techniques, and gaining recognition as a legitimate, rich form of art. Maaheen Ahmed examines this trend by taking up philosopher Umberto Eco's notion of the open work of art, whereby the reader (or listener or viewer, as the case may be) is offered several possibilities of interpretation in a cohesive narrative and aesthetic structure.

Ahmed delineates the visual, literary, and other medium-specific features used by comics to form open rather than closed works, methods by which comics generate or limit meaning as well as increase and structure the scope of reading into a work.

1st printing. Written by Thierry Smolderen. Art by Rudolph Dirks. The Origins of Comics: From William Hogarth to Winsor McCay, Thierry Smolderen presents a cultural landscape whose narrative differs in many ways from those presented by other historians of the comic strip. Rather than beginning his inquiry with the popularly accepted "sequential art" definition of the comic strip, Smolderen instead engages with the historical dimensions that inform that definition. His goal is to understand the processes that led to the 20th-century comic strip, the highly recognizable species of picture stories that crystallized around 1900 in the United States.

Both volumes of the WWII aerial combat classic now in one complete deluxe size hardcover edition!

A WAR IS A DIFFICULT THING TO KILL

The Second World War is almost over, but no one seems to have told the Germans - as Royal Air Force pilot Ja-mie McKenzie finds out when he's assigned to deadly shipping strikes along the enemy coast.

Flying the Mosquito fighter-bomber against heavily armed targets is dangerous enough at the best of times, but af-ter incurring the wrath of his vengeful commanding officer, Jamie is assigned the most unpopular navigator in the unit - not to mention the least reliable aircraft. Worse still, the commander's sights are firmly set on Jamie's beauti-ful young wife, Beth.

Writer Garth Ennis (A WALK THROUGH HELL, Preacher, The Boys) and artist Keith Burns (War Stories) reunite after the success of their series Johnny Red, presenting another tale of World War II aerial combat: featuring skies black with flak and enemy fighters, nail-biting low-level action, and the dark humor of men whose lives can be snatched away at any second... OUT OF THE BLUE.
