Jimbo
A futuristic punk ventures through a madcap, dystopian fantasia in this astounding work of comics literature by a celebrated artist and illustrator.Gary Panter is one of America s great creative forces: the illustrator for the trailblazing punk magazine Slash, set designer for the legendary TV show Pee-wee s Playhouse, and one of the wildest, most innovative comics artists of all time. Jimbo: Adventures in Paradise is a leap into the uproarious life of Panter s ever-cheerful punk everyman, Jimbo, and a perfect introduction to Panter s ever-shifting style. Amid a jumbled cityscape of rundown New York City streets and futuristic Los Angeles freeways, Jimbo crowd-surfs at a riot, makes amends with Ernie Bushmiller s Nancy, and rescues his pal Smoggo s sister from giant cockroaches, all while the world teeters between extravagance and apocalypse.Veering from the crude to the elegant, the wise to the funny, Jimbo: Adventures in Paradise proves Panter is a master of cartooning, and still way ahead of the rest of us.- Shop: buecher

Grower, Hörbuch, Digital, 44min
In his punchy, fast-moving act, Brett Hamil can be dumb, angry, opinionated, or amazed, but he always tries to make comedy that generates maximum laughter and excludes no one. He talks about sex, psychedelics, his "dog entourage", marrying into secular Judaism, and what it means to feel trapped in one's beard. The Seattle Weekly said, "Hamil stands as the city's premiere political comic". The Stranger called him "a truly treasured ham". Brett Hamil was raised the son of a Southern preacher and a stay-at-home mom in the swampy suburbs of Central Florida. He grew up, got a semiworthless degree, worked a series of bizarre and backbreaking jobs, and eventually moved to the exact opposite end of the country. He now lives in Seattle with his wife and two dogs, all of whom he found on the Internet. After dabbling in just about every creative outlet he could think of (painting, writing, cartooning, playing saxophone in a postrock band), Hamil settled on stand-up nine years ago, and he's been doing it hard ever since. He tours all over the US and Canada doing comedy, and he's performed at Bumbershoot Arts and Music Festival (Seattle), Bridgetown Comedy Festival (Portland), and the Northwest Comedy Fest (Vancouver). He's also a columnist and cartoonist for City Arts Magazine, and his sketch videos have received hundreds of thousands of views and appeared on websites like Upworthy and The Daily Dot. His political commentary videos have earned him a local following and spun off into a semimonthly talk show, The Seattle Process with Brett Hamil. Language: English. Narrator: Brett Hamil.

A Curious Man: The Strange and Brilliant Life of Robert 'Believe It or Not!' Ripley , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 716min
A Curious Man is the marvelously compelling biography of Robert “Believe It or Not” Ripley, the enigmatic cartoonist turned globetrotting millionaire who won international fame by celebrating the world's strangest oddities, and whose outrageous showmanship taught us to believe in the unbelievable.As portrayed by acclaimed biographer Neal Thompson, Ripley’s life is the stuff of a classic American fairy tale. Buck-toothed and cursed by shyness, Ripley turned his sense of being an outsider into an appreciation for the strangeness of the world. After selling his first cartoon to Time magazine at age eighteen, more cartooning triumphs followed, but it was his “Believe It or Not” conceit and the wildly popular radio shows it birthed that would make him one of the most successful entertainment figures of his time and spur him to search the globe’s farthest corners for bizarre facts, exotic human curiosities, and shocking phenomena.Ripley delighted in making outrageous declarations that somehow always turned out to be true - such as that Charles Lindbergh was only the sixty-seventh man to fly across the Atlantic or that “The Star Spangled Banner” was not the national anthem. Assisted by an exotic harem of female admirers and by ex-banker Norbert Pearlroth, a devoted researcher who spoke eleven languages, Ripley simultaneously embodied the spirit of Peter Pan, the fearlessness of Marco Polo and the marketing savvy of P. T. Barnum.In a very real sense, Ripley sought to remake the world’s aesthetic. He demanded respect for those who were labeled “eccentrics” or “freaks” - whether it be E. L. Blystone, who wrote 1,615 alphabet letters on a grain of rice, or the man who could swallow his own nose.By the 1930s Ripley possessed a vast fortune, a private yacht, and a 28 room mansion stocked with such “oddities” as shrunken heads and medieval torture devices, and his pioneering firsts in print, radio, and television were tapping in ungekürzt.

Red Lines
A lively graphic narrative reports on censorship of political cartoons around the world, featuring interviews with censored cartoonists from Pittsburgh to Beijing.Why do the powerful feel so threatened by political cartoons? Cartoons don't tell secrets or move markets. Yet, as Cherian George and Sonny Liew show us in Red Lines, cartoonists have been harassed, trolled, sued, fired, jailed, attacked, and assassinated for their insolence. The robustness of political cartooning--one of the most elemental forms of political speech--says something about the health of democracy. In a lively graphic narrative--illustrated by Liew, himself a prize-winning cartoonist--Red Lines crisscrosses the globe to feel the pulse of a vocation under attack.A Syrian cartoonist insults the president and has his hands broken by goons. An Indian cartoonist stands up to misogyny and receives rape threats. An Israeli artist finds his antiracist works censored by social media algorithms. And the New York Times, caught in the crossfire of the culture wars, decides to stop publishing editorial cartoons completely. Red Lines studies thin-skinned tyrants, the invisible hand of market censorship, and demands in the name of social justice to rein in the right to offend. It includes interviews with more than sixty cartoonists and insights from art historians, legal scholars, and political scientists--all presented in graphic form. This engaging account makes it clear that cartoon censorship doesn't just matter to cartoonists and their fans. When the red lines are misapplied, all citizens are potential victims.- Shop: buecher

Moomin Book 1 (eBook, PDF)
The enchanting comic strip that introduced adult readers to the wonderful world of Moomin Tove Jansson is revered around the world as one of the foremost children's authors of the twentieth century for her illustrated chapter books regarding the magical worlds of her creation, the Moomins. The Moomins saw life in many forms but debuted to its biggest audience ever on the pages of world's largest newspaper the London Evening News, in 1954. The strip was syndicated in newspapers around the world with millions of readers in 40 countries. Moomin Book One is the first volume of Drawn & Quarterly publishing plan to reprint the entire strip drawn by Jansson before she handed over the reigns to her brother Lars in 1960. This is the first time the strip will be published in any form in North America and will deservedly place Jansson among the international cartooning greats of the last century. The Moomins are a tight-knit family - hippo-shaped creatures with easygoing and adventurous outlooks. Jansson's art is pared down and precise, yet able to compose beautiful portraits of ambling creatures in fields of flowers or rock-strewn beaches that recall Jansson's Nordic roots. The comic strip reached out to adults with its gentle and droll sense of humor. Whimsical but with biting undertones, Jansson's observations of everyday life, including guests who overstay their welcome, modern art, movie stars, and high society, easily caught the attention of an international audience and still resonate today.- Shop: buecher

Comic Empires: Imperialism in Cartoons, Caricature, and Satirical Art
Comic empires is a unique collection of new research exploring the relationship between imperialism and cartoons, caricature, and satirical art. Edited by leading scholars across both fields, the volume provides new perspectives on well-known events, and also illuminates little-known players in the 'great game' of empire. The volume contains a wealth of contributions from noted as well as emerging experts. Keren Zdafee and Stefanie Wichhart both examine Egypt (in the turbulent 1930s and during the Suez crisis, respectively); David Olds and Robert Phiddian explore the decolonisation of cartooning in Australia from the 1960s; Fiona Halloran, the foremost expert on Thomas Nast (1840-1902), examines his engagement with US westward expansion; the overseas imperialism of the United States is analysed by Albert D. Pionke and Frederick Whiting, as well as Stephen Tufnell; Shaoqian Zhang takes a close look at Chinese and Japanese propagandising during the conflict of 1937-45; and David Lockwood interrogates the attitudes of David Low (1891-1963) towards British India. Some of the finest comic art of the period is deployed as evidence, and examined seriously - in its own right - for the first time. Readers will find cartoons on subjects as diverse as the Pacific, Cuba, and Cyprus, from Punch, Judge, and Puck. Egyptian, German, French, and Australian comic art also enriches this innovative collection. Accessible to students of history at all levels, Comic empires is a major addition to the Studies in Imperialism series, as well as standing alone as an innovative and significant contribution to the ever-growing field of comics studies.- Shop: buecher

The Peanutbutter Sisters and Other American Stories
An immigrant weaves a new, surreal Americana, complete with bubblegum fights and bomb queens. Rarely does a new talent arrive in the medium as unmistakably distinct as Rumi Hara. With immersive art and a clear-eyed storytelling rhythm, her uncategorizable debut, Nori, put her playful cartooning on display. Her new collection, The Peanutbutter Sisters and Other American Stories, delights with equal mischievousness. The Peanutbutter Sisters is a glorious balance of contradictions, at once escapism and realism, science fiction and slice of life. Two students explore the urban landscape while following Newton Creek, the polluted Queens-Brooklyn border. As they do, they plan a traditional Japanese play with contemporary pop culture. Another story features an intergalactic race of all living things set in the year 2099 and is a dazzling treatise on the environment and journalism. Yet sometimes the fantastical collides with the quotidian in the same story. A man struggling with vertigo during quarantine encounters a world of sexual revelry whenever he has a dizzy spell. The Peanut Butter sisters ride a hurricane into New York City and yet aren't able to hitch a ride back with a whale due to a heavily polluted ocean. Hara's magical realist tendencies and diverse cast of characters all contort the tropes of the American comics canon. Yet above all else, her innate control of the comics language-her ability to weave the absurd with the real on such a charming and commanding level-is refreshingly unrivaled.
