Banal as a speech bubble - the adjective "comics" as genre specification
Kořínek, Pavel
The terminological confusion that is still present when considering the nature of comics (is it a genre, perhaps even literary a form or a medium?) is reflected in the usage of the adjective "komiksový" (comics, the adjectival form which in Czech refers specifically to comics) in texts of various media. This description is commonly used as a characterization that usually refers to specific formal, genre-based or subject-based similarities. However, in most cases this adjectival notation only revives genre stereotypes, or non-systematically marks the source medium of adapted material. Do "comics radio shows", "theatre comics" or "comics movies" exist? As the article argues, the most common reasons for labelling other-media texts as comics are: 1. formal proximity of the media involved, 2. the superhero genre, 3. animation or cartoon technique, 4. humour, dottiness, sometimes even the perceived qualitative inadequacy of the text under review.
