Vol. 38 No. 2 (2022): The representation of the city in comic books

The theme of the representation of space in comics is interesting because it is a cross-cutting subject, but one that can be applied according to different cultural and stylistic sensibilities; it allows reflection to be anchored in a specific context by linking it to perception and personal experience. This theme allows us to reflect on the relationship between the space represented and the space of representation, that of the board and the square. In this issue we are interested in space as a living environment, in space that is lived and perceived rather than strictly architectural space, which often becomes an intimate space, linked to the experience of the authors and/or characters.
