@frederikbk.bsky.social
Lecturer in English and Film @edinburghnapier.bsky.social. Author of Chester Brown (https://edushare.ing/C) and Serial Selves (https://edushare.ing/D) + editor of Chicago: A Literary History (https://edushare.ing/E).
I just received my author copies of this exciting volume. It contains 8 short comics about migration by a super-talented group of cartoonists, who worked with academics to create the narratives, and the resulting book exhibits an incredibly diverse approach to comics-making.

It's not often that you get to send two book manuscripts off on the same day, but I've just submitted the final proofs for "Chester Brown," out in April from @upmississippi.bsky.social, & the revisions for "Crossing Lines: Comics about Human Migration," out sometime next year from U of Toronto P 🎉

’Super-Girls of the Future’ is out today! Ask a librarian to get you a copy (or buy it here www.routledge.com/p/book/97810...) if you’re into superhero comics, girlhood studies, comics studies, Ahmedian affect theory, or just want to know why and how Ms Marvel changed super-girls as we knew them.
