Philosophy of Comics is an introduction to these philosophical questions. In exploring the history and variety of the comics medium- Sam Cowling and Wesley D. Cray chart a path through the emerging field of the philosophy of comics. Drawing from a diverse range of forms and genres and informed by case studies of classic comics such as Watchmen- Tales from the Crypt- and Fun Home- Cowling and Cray explore ethical- aesthetic- and ontological puzzles- including:  - What does it take to create-or destroy-a fictional character like Superman? - Can all comics be adapted into films- or are some comics impossible to adapt? - Is there really a genre of 'superhero comics'? - When are comics obscene- pornographic- and why does it matter?  At a time of rapidly growing interest in graphic storytelling- this is an ideal introduction to the philosophy of comics and some of its most central and puzzling questions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a PRESALE.
