Harriet Earle is a PhD student at Keele University, under the supervision of Dr James Peacock and Dr Tim Lustig. Her research focuses on traumatic representation and conflict in American comics published since the end of the Vietnam War. She is especially interested in the comics form and artistic techniques – and how the form demands a new way of reading that can assist the author in their recreation of trauma.
