which came out last month through Cambridge University Press.

This book considers how the American graphic novel has reshuffled the cards
of comics history, with prominent cartoonists as Chris Ware, Art
Spiegelman, Seth, Charles Burns, Daniel Clowes digging into comics archives
of comics to recover a common visual heritage and pass it on to new
readers. It studies the role of cartoonists as historians of their chosen
medium by analyzing the contexts and gestures for this making of comics
heritage.
