Go, Read: Charles Hatfield On The State Of Comics Studies (From Transatlantica)

Longtime
CR writing-about-comics pal Charles Hatfield
has put his forthcoming article about the state of comics studies on his shared blog for all to see, and if you have any interest in the subject at all it's worth a read. I'm not sure how much interest I have, honestly, but this statement sounds right on: "... academics have professional needs and priorities that are peculiar to the profession, and it's my belief that comics studies in the academy must grapple more deliberately with those needs and priorities. Frankly, I think we're going to have separate out our fandom connections from what we need and what we hope to accomplish as academics."
