Con este volumen se contribuye al debate en torno a la salud de los jóvenes, que es relevante dentro de las ciencias sociales en general y de la antropología médica en particular, debido a la cantidad de elementos distintos que están implicados en los procesos de salud, enfermedad y atención de las poblaciones jóvenes, y de las sofisticadas relaciones existentes entre ellos. Asimismo también es un debate relevante porque tiene implicaciones públicas: las políticas de salud de los jóvenes tienen que estar basadas menos en prejuicios, estigmas o alarmismos sociales mas o menos coyunturales, y mucho más en un conocimiento riguroso y situado de las tan distintas realidades que configuran el campo de relaciones entre salud y jóvenes. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
In the popular imagination, zombies are scary, decomposing corpses hunting down the living. But since the 1930s, there have also been other zombies shambling across the panels of comic books--zombies that aren't quite what most people think zombies should be. There have been zombie slaves, zombie henchmen, talking zombies, beautiful zombies, and even zombie heroes. Using archival research into Golden Age comics and extended analyses of comics from the 1940s to today, Corpse Crusaders explores the profound influence early action/adventure and superheroic generic conventions had on shaping comic book zombies. It takes the reader from the 1940s superhero, The Purple Zombie, through 1950s revenge-from-the-grave zombies, to the 1970s anti-hero, Simon Garth ("The Zombie") and the |

gruesome heroes-turned-zombies of Marvel Zombies. In becoming immersed in superheroic logics early on, the zombie in comics became a figure that, unlike the traditional narrative uses of other monsters, actually served to defend the status quo. This continuing trend not only provides insight into the overwhelming influence superheroes have had on the comic book medium, but it also provides a unique opportunity to explore the ways in which zombiism and superheroism parallel each other. Corpse Crusaders explores the ways that truth, justice, and the American way have influenced the undead in comics and turned what is often a rebellious figure into one that works to save the day. |
