They employ a cultural studies approach with different theoretical frameworks ranging from debates within comics studies, film and media theory, postcolonialism, feminism, economics, multimodality, aging, aesthetics, memory studies, food studies, and sound studies, among others. Scholars and students working in these areas will find the book to be an insightful and impactful resource.
Manolito Four-Eyes
"Nobody knows me as Manolito Garca Moreno, not even Big Ears Lopez, and he's my best friend; even though sometimes he can be a dog and a traitor (and other times, a dog traitor), he's still my best friend and he's a whole lotta cool. In Carabanchel-that's the name of my neighborhood in Madrid, in case I haven't told you-everyone knows me as Manolito Four-Eyes." "Don't try to be different," says Manolito's mother. But he can't help it - he doesn't have to try. Whether he's fighting over the One-and-Only Susana; trying not to fight with Ozzy the Bully; telling his entire life story to the school psychologist; or discovering the true meaning of World Peace-10-year-old Manolito is a real original. As he'd say, in the worldwide world, there's nobody like him And for the first time, this best-selling phenomenon from Spain is available in English.
