Erotic Comics v 2

The liberating underground comix of the 60s heralded an explosion in the genres of erotic comic art, and this volume picks up the story to show how European, American and Asian artists have explored the possibility of the form in the years since. Erotic Comics: A Graphic History Volume 2 examines how the form has become an international publishing phenomenon by showcasing artwork that has inflamed desires, incensed censors, and caused controversy. Well-known names covered include Alan Moore, Giovanna Casotto (whose work graces the cover), Tom of Finland and Milo Manara. This provocative title covers everything: the erotic comics explosion in America in the mid-80s; the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender comics scene; UK and European erotic comic creators since the 70s; and the Japanese hentai phenomenon. The future of erotic comics online is also explored in this fascinating and surprising volume.
