Sinossi

"Narrative Tone Balance" explores the crucial balance between realism and representational styles in comic storytelling, especially when dealing with sensitive LGBTQ+ themes. The book argues that skillfully manipulating artistic and narrative techniques is essential for conveying complex themes without resorting to harmful stereotypes. Did you know that comics possess a unique capacity for both exaggerated expression and subtle nuance? The book emphasizes the need for creators to be aware of the historical context of LGBTQ+ representation in media, where characters have often been marginalized or misrepresented.

 
The book begins by defining key concepts like realism, representation, and tone within comics. It then examines how these elements shape the reader's understanding and emotional response. Subsequent chapters delve into specific techniques for achieving tonal balance, such as character design, dialogue, and visual metaphor. Case studies of both successful and unsuccessful LGBTQ+ representation in Anglophone comics are analyzed.

 
This study uniquely focuses on the interplay between realism and representation, providing targeted analysis and practical recommendations. It bridges film & television studies, social sciences, and comic studies, offering insights relevant across disciplines concerned with social justice. The book's approach is supported by textual and visual analysis, along with interviews. Ultimately, it aims to provide a comprehensive guide for navigating representation in comics, fostering a more nuanced and empathetic approach to storytelling.

    The closest you'll ever get to seeing someone actually wear their hearts on their sleeves is in Texas, every fall, at the local high school homecoming game. 
    They're called homecoming mums. They are as bodacious as football, as irresistible as a juicy rumor, and as deep as a momma's love. Over a hundred years ago when the custom began, mum was short for chrysanthemum, a typical corsage that boys gave to girls before taking them to the big football game. But through the decades, mum went from a simple abbreviation to a complicated shorthand for an eye-popping tradition that’s as ingrained in the culture as it is confounding to outsiders. 
    Through her original photography and collection of stories from across and beyond the Lone Star State, Amy J. Schultz takes us deep in the heart of mum country. You’ll meet kids who wear them, parents who buy them, and critics who decry them as just another example of consumerism gone wild. But mostly, you’ll discover that just like every ritual which stands the test of time, someone is keeping the tradition alive. Someone like Mom.
