Collection of academic articles in comics studies. Starts with a great comic strip introducing the collection itself followed by comic panels drawn by the authors of the articles themselves. Very cool!

Articles I liked:

“There Is a Man with a Typewriter”: Deadpool as Existential Antihero, Breaking the Fourth Wall of Meaningful Existence by YASEMIN J ERDEN

This article contains both: a compelling argument for Deadpool being an existential antihero and an explanation on what those two terms actually mean that anyone can understand.
