Of course we all have happy memories of favourite childhood reading (Beano, Dandy, Eagle, Mad, Viz  -  the list is endless). But how aware are we that there is something inherently anarchic about comics? A huge variety have been produced over the centuries by British creators. It is a strong tradition that continues today. Some of the biggest names in comics - Alan Moore (Watchmen, V for Vendetta), Neil Gaiman (Sandman), Mark Millar (Kick-Ass) and Grant Morrison (Batman: Arkham Asylum) - are featured in this visually stimulating book (which accompanies a major exhibition at the British Library). But there are many, many more. And it is the diversity of content and form, as well as comics' ongoing relevance, which is a main focus. The seditious aspects of the comics tradition - adult, underground and 'alternative' material  -  is highlighted, alongside the superheroes who still dominate the scene. There is anarchy everywhere that you look!","brand":"Gravett, Paul \u0026 Dunning, John Harris","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":50751024922963,"sku":"XV80712357357","price":24.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"New","offer_id":50751024890195,"sku":"9780712357357","price":34.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/gravett-paul-dunning-john-harris-paul-gravett-comics-unmasked-2014-paperback-1155177989.jpg?v=1744226367","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.pro\/products\/paul-gravett-comics-unmasked-2014-paperback","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
