Global Print Movement

"Global Print Movement" explores LGBTQ representation in comics across Japan, Brazil, and Europe, revealing how these narratives both reflect and shape societal attitudes. The book delves into diverse cultural contexts to examine how LGBTQ characters and themes are presented, received, and interpreted.

Comics offer critical insights into cultural acceptance, resistance, and the evolution of LGBTQ rights. The book argues that LGBTQ representation in comics is culturally contingent, varying with artistic freedom, narrative tone, and audience engagement. For example, censorship regulations significantly impact artistic expression in different regions.

The book begins with theoretical frameworks and regional comic history, then analyzes comics from Japan, Brazil, and Europe, comparing LGBTQ portrayal, narrative themes, and critical reception. This unique, comparative approach sets "Global Print Movement" apart by bringing together perspectives often studied separately.

The book uses mixed-methods, including content analysis, creator/reader interviews, and academic research. It culminates in a comparative analysis, drawing conclusions about the global landscape of LGBTQ representation in sequential art and identifying areas for advocacy.
