Despite the boom in scholarship on comics studies on the one hand and memory studies on the other, the two fields rarely interact, especially when one moves beyond the representation of traumatic memories in comics. Through focusing on the roles played by styles and archives - in their physical and metaphorical manifestations - this edited volume offers an original intervention, highlighting the many ways of thinking about comics and memory. Bringing together scholars as well as cultural actors, this book establishes five key areas for understanding the complex interactions between comics and memory: memory styles, embodied memories, comics history, the archive, and archival practices. The contributions in these sections combine studies of European and North American comics and offer a representative overview of the main comics genres, including superheroes, Westerns, newspaper comics, autobiographical comics, comics reportage, and Francophone alternative comics.
