I'm Just a Comic Book Boy - Essays on the Intersection of Comics and Punk (Paperback)

Comics and the punk movement are powerfully and inextricably linked. Each has a do-it-yourself ethos and a rebellious spirit to defy authority that complements the other. Though this link seems obvious, this collection of insightful and provocative works provides for first time a thorough analysis of the intersections between comics and punk. It also seeks to expand the discussion beyond the standard US and UK punk scenes to include the influence punk has had on comics produced in other countries, such as Spain and Turkey. Exhaustively researched, this collection is an invaluable work for scholars and fans of comics and punk.
