These three panelists consider how the medium of comics works from a
variety of international approaches. Jasleen Kandhari (University of
Oxford) considers the influence of the master of modern Sikh art, Sobha
Singh, on the representation of the gurus in Sikh comics using the
iconographic approach to the study of works of art. Nabanita Mitra (Women's
Christian College) situates the daring exploits of Bahadur (The Brave One),
a quintessential Indian super-cop comics hero, in the context of 1970–80s
India from banditry to espionage. Abhilasha Gusain (Indian Institute of
Technology Roorkee) analyses two graphic narratives by Clement Baloup,
Vietnamese Memories: Leaving Saigon and Vietnamese Memories: Little Saigon,
to outline the various potential strategies and techniques comics can
employ to sensitize readers to the sufferings of others and make them
hospitable to life narratives from the margins.
