Description

"Establishing the comic genre as a cousin to Arthurian myth, Spenser, and Shakespeare, this work uses comics to inform readings of The Faerie Queene, The Tempest, Malory's Morte and more, while employing authors like Ben Johnson to help explain comics by Alan Moore, Jack Kirby, and Grant Morrison"--Provided by publisher.
