Riassunto:
During a time of unprecedented political, social, and cultural upheaval in U.S. history, one of the fiercest battles was ignited by a comic book. In 1963, the San Francisco Chronicle made 21-year-old Dan O'Neill the youngest syndicated cartoonist in American newspaper history. As O'Neill delved deeper into the emerging counterculture, his strip, Odd Bodkins, became stranger and stranger and more and more provocative, until the papers in the syndicate dropped it and the Chronicle let him go. The lesson that O'Neill drew from this was that what America most needed was the destruction of Walt Disney. O'Neill assembled a band of rogue cartoonists called the Air Pirates (after a group of villains who had bedeviled Mickey Mouse in comic books and cartoons). They lived communally in a San Francisco warehouse owned by Francis Ford Coppola and put out a comic book, Air Pirates Funnies, that featured Disney characters participating in very un-Disneylike behavior, provoking a mammoth lawsuit for copyright and trademark infringements and hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages. Disney was represented by one of San Francisco's top corporate law firms and the Pirates by the cream of the counterculture bar. The lawsuit raged for 10 years, from the trial court to the US Supreme Court and back again.
The novelist and essayist Bob Levin recounts this rollicking saga with humor, wit, intelligence, and skill, bringing alive the times, the issues, the absurdities, the personalities, the changes wrought within them and us all. Includes never-before seen art from the Air Pirates archives! Two excerpted chapters of this book in The Comics Journal in 2001 proved to be one of the magazine's most popular features in recent memory. Black-and-white illustrations throughout.

Condizione: Wie neu. 266 S. / p. Aus dem Vorbesitz des libertären Dokumentaristen Hans-Dieter Heilmann, wie meist kleine Beilagen und Bleistiftanstreichungen, insgesamt aber immer ein sehr gutes Exemplar / From the previous ownership of the libertarian documentarist Hans-Dieter Heilmann, as mostly small inserts and pencil annotations, but overall always a very good copy - The first comprehensive book about the most celebrated and misunderstood First Amendment controversy of the late 20th Century, "The Pirates and the Mouse: Disneys War Against the Counterculture" chronicles the groundbreaking litigation between the Disney entertainment empire and a group of rag-tag underground cartoonists who called themselves the Air Pirates. In the late 1960s, the Walt Disney Company dominated the pop culture landscape. A group of talented underground comic cartoonists decided that the cultures salvation required the destruction of Walt Disney; to that end, they proceeded to publish a series of quasi-pornographic, satirical Comic books starring the companys most famous characters. Disney sued, and the resulting litigation marked forever the significant and irrpassable boundaries that divide two different, competing visions of America ( from the backcover ) - CONTENTS -- The Voice of Revolution Raised -- Fascism Lost the War -- San Francisco Loves Lunatics -- Bad Taste Would Be Blood Dripping What If We Dropped More Pianos -- A Lifestyle of Their Own -- For Every Little Head, A Cap of Mickey Mouse -- Stamp Out the Seditious and Heretical; Encourage Literature and Genius -- Enter the Big, Fucking, Sick Machine -- Part of the Reason Was To Be Wise Asses -- Kiss This Underground Stuff Good-Bye -- A Big, Hairy Freak on Acid -- While C.J.
