The rise of literary discourse surrounding comics and graphic novels call for a refinement of methods for analyzing them. I develop means for analyzing comics as material image-text-objects, filling a gap in most comics media-specific analysis which focuses on text and image. The approaches to image-text-objects that I develop come from art comics, the most striking area of activity in comics today. Art comics are independent comics which experiment with comics formal devices, visual conventions, and materiality to create stand-alone and deeply integrated media objects. Art comics, in how their activating energy is to explore what comics can be and do, reveal new formal possibilities for comics objects, and use those formal innovations to explore perspectives from marginalized people. The way in which art comics integrate the materiality and cultural norms of their containing medium into their narratives further directs us to new insights into how print media, visual media, hybrid digital-analog media, and social media function.I begin with the convergence of art comics and artist's books. In both their image-text-object integration and in their cultural position, comics have assumed the democratic artistic position that the artist's book once sought to fill. With this in mind, I put artist's book scholarship and art comics in conversations to develop new frameworks for studying the objecthood of comics, explicating pagina-panels, rhythm, the page turn, platform self-reflexivity, novelty elements, and metaphoric associations with medium as frameworks for comics analysis. In their usage of these elements of bookishness, art comics point to a future of print. Print art comics also point to new approaches to comics visuality. I show how dwelling emerges as a means to account for the experience of visual immersion in work by Joe Sacco and Frank Santoro, and how alternation between reading and seeing via moments of abstraction functions in work by Lynda Barry and C.F. To paint a fuller picture of the image-text-object, I turn to the small press risograph printing community, a major nexus for art comics. Through interviews with printmakers and hand on printing, I reveal the power of risograph for the small press, and explore both how it has reshaped the field of art comics and the way we conceive of analog and digital medias. Digital comics also function as image-text-objects; Jaakko Pallasvuo's comics use self-reflexive attention to Instagram as a platform to critique its cultural politics and social system. Ultimately, this project intervenes in contemporary critical discourse by directing scholars to more accurate means for accounting for the power of comics as objects; by bringing art comics, an underrepresented and often marginalized area of comics activity, into the academic sphere; and by emphasizing comics as a vital means of theorizing how a range of mediums function.
