Resumen en inglés

The transnational phenomenon known as the British Invasion of comics demonstrates how deeply stereotypes and expectations relative to nationality can shape the way artistic practices develop and the way people speak about them. Constant references to the Britishness of the “Invaders” suggest an essentialized, unproblematic view of nationality; however, as I have shown, both Americanness and Britishness are in fact highly complex objects that the authors of the Invasion articulate within a transnational framework, both in their works and in the paratextual discourse they build around it. By questioning the stereotypes associated with both countries, they shed light on the cultural, commercial and ideological weight of national representations.< Leer menos
