Abstract
“This chapter will use gothic theory to analyse the uses of spatiality in the landscapes of three contemporary comics and especially their links to temporality (given the time-as-space narratology of comics). After noting the (more traditional) strategies used in From Hell (Alan Moore/Eddie Campbell, 1988–89) and The Invisibles (Grant Morrison/various, 1996–2002), the main discussion will focus on The Walking Dead (Robert Kirkman/Charlie Adlard, 2003–present). Although set in diverse cultures and eras, these comics seem peculiarly gothic in their treatments of time and space.”
