Paz, amor e dinheiro: Uma análise dos hippies e yuppies no arco "origens" de "Hellblazer"

Abstract

This work aims to use Sequential Art to analyze the cultural representations of the 1980s, focusing particularly on the hippie and yuppie groups depicted in the first part of the comic book series Hellblazer. The selected stories were written by the British author Jamie Delano for the American company DC Comics. For the development of this research, a historical analysis was conducted on the evolution of comic books and the historical period from 1960 to 1990, along with interdisciplinary approaches to better examine the research subject. The findings demonstrate that comic books have potential for historical analysis and reveal how stereotypes have been perpetuated in other media. It is concluded that comic books play an important role in constructing visual identity and shaping collective memory regarding narratives of the past.
