It starts with the \u201c<em>vintage<\/em>\u201d comic, with a slightly retro flavor, inspired by the reassuring tranquility of American daily life in the 1950s which, whether real or presumed, nonetheless contributed to strengthening the spirit of a country that after World War II had entered another war, ongoing and silent, like the \u201c<em>cold<\/em>\u201d conflict against the Soviet Union. It then continues with the more authorial graphic novel phenomenon, exploring themes such as love, sexuality, creativity, discrimination, and independence, traversing the psychedelia of the 1970s, taking on the role of a political manifesto of a new <em>beat generation<\/em> that from the Bay Area of San Francisco believed and felt it could contribute to writing new pages for the society of the future, ultimately settling into underground comics and the contemporary mainstream scene of <strong>Marvel<\/strong> and <strong>DC Comics<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-663x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-85027\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-663x1024.jpg 663w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-194x300.jpg 194w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-768x1187.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-994x1536.jpg 994w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-1325x2048.jpg 1325w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-600x927.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blog.artsupp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Afua-Richardson.-2018.-Marvel-Comics-\u2013-Shuri-2.-Variant-Cover-scaled.jpg 1656w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/><figcaption>Afua Richardson. 2018.
