More archiving comments! Incredible!
ReplyDeleteThe idea of citing comics in academic papers is fascinating to someone who grew up in an era where comics were not considered worthy of any recognition. (Once in college, for a brief assignment,I wanted to compare/contrast Swamp Thing's journey through Hell to save Abby with Dante's Inferno. It was summarily shot down.) So kudos to everyone who brings them in to their thesis projects or other papers.
But I am afraid to ask about Volume numbers in the citations as it picked the scab of archiving collections again.
How do you cite volumes? By true title name? Or by main word.
Is it 'The Mighty Thor' volume 1? Or just Thor Vol 1?
It is 'The Daring New Adventures of Supergirl Vol 1'? Or 'Supergirl' Volume 2?
And what if a book changes name midway?
Does 'Saga of the Swamp Thing' Vol 1 become 'Swamp Thing' Vol 2 once the name changes? Or does the whole thing get put under the name 'Swamp Thing' Vol 2?
Thanks for making me buy another Excedrin for this latest headache!
This is the topic THAT WILL NEVER END ! ! ! ! !
