Abstract
For anyone interested in the cultural history of Soviet politics, or comics studies and the history of cartooning more broadly, John Etty’s first book is perhaps less a book than a landmark. One of the latest volumes in the University Press of Mississippi’s “Comics Studies and Popular Culture” series, it stands out from the pack on its own merits as a work of scholarship as well as being an ideal companion volume to another of the series, Jose Alaniz’s Komiks: Comic Art in Russia (2010).
