From the 1971 appearance of the Skywald Publications character "the Butterfly"--The first Black female superheroine in a comic book--to contemporary comic books, graphic novels, film, manga, and video gaming, a growing number of Black women are becoming producers, viewers, and subjects of sequential art. As the first detailed investigation of Black women's participation in comic art, Black Women in Sequence examines the representation, production, and transnational circulation of women of African descent in the sequential art world. In this groundbreaking study, which includes interviews with artists and writers, Deborah Whaley suggests that the treatment of the Black female subject in sequential art says much about the place of people of African descent in national ideology in the United States and abroad."--Publisher's description. 606 $aGraphic novels$xHistory and criticism 606 $aWomen in literature 606 $aAfricans in literature 606 $aAfrican American women in literature 606 $aComic books, strips, etc$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGraphic novels$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aWomen in literature. 615 0$aAfricans in literature. 615 0$aAfrican American women in literature. 615 0$aComic books, strips, etc.$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a741.5/973 700 $aWhaley$b Deborah Elizabeth$01622850 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811358003321 996 $aBlack Women in Sequence$93956931 997 $aUNINA
