	Review of Considering MAUS by Ole Frahm
		He has published a lot of articles on the history of comics, not to mention the many references in MAUS to comic book producers like Harvey Kurtzman or Will Eisner – but what he has done is supposedly “not exactly a comic book“.
		A few examples: As so many others she is arguing that MAUS due to the fact it belongs in a way to the comics there has to be something comic in it.
		The not existing discourse on comics in the academic world is not the only explanation for this lack on knowledge why MAUS is telling the story it is telling only as a comic book and with all the means of a comic book.

		The underground comics of the previous decade had helped demolish some of the barriers to more adult work, and the emergence of “direct market” comics shops opened a niche for small presses, many of which were doing this kind of work.
		Comics are not merely a collection of images, but a collection of images placed in deliberate — though not necessarily chronological — order.
		Comics are well suited to that role because of the inherent narrative properties of the medium.

		When the American Library Association invited acclaimed comic book artist Jeff Smith and three fellow artists to its annual meeting in 2002, the quartet huddled beforehand and agreed that this was their best —— and perhaps only — chance to pitch comics to an influential group of tastemakers.
		In fact, the artists heard that comics and their book-length cousins, graphic novels, were the only books for which circulation was up.
		Many comics historians believe this relegated comics to life as a lesser genre, fit only for kid-friendly superhero story lines.

	CJR March/April 2005: Essay
		Now comics, or graphic, journalism is turning up in daily newspapers, where its inherent subjectivity contrasts sharply with the newsroom’s dispassionate prose — another round in the debate over what journalism should be in the twenty-first century.
		In the October 10, 2004, issue of The Edmonton Journal, for example, David Staples and Jill Stanton used the comics format to tell the story of Dave Eamer, a Canadian truck driver who lost the use of his legs in a highway accident and went on to become North America’s first paraplegic long-distance trucker.
		Perhaps not to be outdone by the competition, Willamette Week, a weekly paper in Portland, adopted the comics format for record reviews and interviews with bands.

	IGN: The Horror Geek Speaks: Cannibal Holocaust
		Civilized man (embodied through the four journalists for the most part—although also through the members of Monroe's group as well) is the ultimate villain here—he casually slaughters animals (a turtle, a muskrat, a snake, a pig, etc.) and kills and rapes the supposed "savages".
		At least part of the reason Cannibal Holocaust still trumps BWP can be traced directly back to their inspirations: Deodato drew his from the work of Gaultiero Jacopetti and Franco Prosperi—the forefathers of the whole "mondo" documentary movement thanks to their films such as Mondo Cane.
		So, while the core of Deodato's second theme—that media is ultimately capable of being manipulated by the people behind the camera—has lost some of its punch over the past twenty-five years, the rest of the film hasn't.

		When Holocaust denier David Irving demanded a libel trial in England, the nature of history itself was at stake.
		In her book "Denying the Holocaust" Lipstadt had written that Irving was "one of the most dangerous spokespersons for Holocaust denial," a man who twisted evidence "until it conforms with his ideological leanings and political propaganda." When the book appeared in Britain, Irving sued both Lipstadt and her publisher, Penguin Books.
		As D.D. Guttenplan points out in "The Holocaust on Trial," one of two new books about the case, there is no need, as there is in the United States, for the claimant to show that the words were used "in reckless disregard" of the truth.

		Finkelstein's theory that the memory of the Nazi Holocaust is being abused for political, moral and financial flmail could only spring from a deep-rooted anti-Zionism and/or his own personal psychological problems, most American intellectuals silently seem to agree.
		Today I did get some positive feedback, though, from professor Raul Hilberg, an expert on the Holocaust and a conservative Republican at that, so since I am a person of the left, his support cannot be partisan.

		Denigrating the Jewish Holocaust is an Indian thing these days, among leftist Indian leaders that is. One might expect Indians to have affinity with Jews, by the common plight, of being unwanted, but Ahenakew doesn’t see it.
		The defining characteristic of the Holocaust is the number who died, not the manner in which they resisted.
		Again, this is irrelevant to the definition of "Holocaust." Check the dictionary if you don't believe me. See if it says anything about the victims being natives rather than immigrants or pacifists rather than warriors.

		So Holocaust denial at best comes down to a debate about how many people were torn from their families and killed -- not whether.

		And because he often puts himself into his comics -- as a harried, disheveled chainsmoking, middle-age man (or mouse) -- he has the kind of outsized personality that a nascent art form needs to give it visibility.
