\"Please<\/a><\/p>\n

The other day I met a new co-worker and spoke to her for quite awhile about a variety of topics. I was wearing my glasses during this conversation. The following day, it was raining, high winds blowing sheets of cold water into my face. Without the miniature windshield wipers that come in so handy for glasses-wearers in cartoons, I popped in my contact lenses. Sans glasses, I walked into the same co-worker\u2019s office and greeted her, to which she responded, \u201cWho are you?\u201d<\/p>\n

Nerd that I am, my first thought was, \u201cMaybe it is<\/em> plausible that Superman could pass as Clark Kent. Those damn tricky glasses!\u201d<\/p>\n

In these moments (there have been others, my sister-in-law included, who don\u2019t recognize me, or in a funny sort of way become almost suspicious of me, when I am without my glasses) of putting myself in Superman\u2019s shoes, I experienced a twinge of curious desire to see myself as a comic book hero. Vietnamese, freckles, glasses and all.<\/p>\n

Shattered:\u00a0 The Asian American Comics Anthology<\/em> allows for Asian Americans to do just that. Released in November 2012, Shattered<\/em> was compiled by the same team\u2014Jeff Yang, Parry Shen, Keith Chow, and Jerry Ma\u2014who brought you Secret Identities:\u00a0 The Asian American Superhero Anthology<\/em> in 2009. The new anthology collects a broad spectrum of genres and styles that exceeds the bounds of the superhero focus of the last collection.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What unites these diverse works of art and literature is the anthology\u2019s prefatory mission statement to \u201creimagine one of five archetypes frequently associated with Asians in media and popular culture:\u00a0 The Brute, the Brain, the Temptress, the Alien, and the Manipulator.\u201d The works are divided into five chapters that correspond with these identified stereotypes, and the editors\u2019 preface instructs the audience to read the anthology from beginning to end. I\u2019m not sure how necessary it is to do so or how effective the categorization is, given that many of the better works address more than just one of the aforementioned stereotypes. Perhaps the intentions of organizing the book in that fashion would be more compelling if the editors–all accomplished artists and\/or writers in their own right–would have elaborated on how and why they chose to focus on those five archetypes. Nevertheless, the more important point is that the express purpose of the collection is to address, and hopefully combat, the media\u2019s perpetuation of centuries-old racist stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Thankfully the anthology represents some of the ethnic diversity within the umbrella term of \u201cAsian American\u201d by including authors, artists, and characters of East Asian, Southeast Asian, and South Asian heritage. This is a positive direction that future works and collections can follow in terms of representing diverse classes, gender identities, and sexualities within Asian America as well.<\/p>\n

The book includes work from relatively well-known names such as Gene Yang of American Born Chinese<\/em> fame and author of Level Up<\/em>, previously reviewed on diacritics<\/a>, as well as Phil Yu, a.k.a. Angry Asian Man<\/a>. Yet it was interesting for me to gain exposure to works by artists and writers with whom I am not as familiar.<\/p>\n

As with any anthology, some works are more satisfying than others. Many of the comics address marginalization, loneliness, and shifts in identity that are both voluntary (disguises, undercover ops, etc.) and involuntary (the radioactive mutations without which a comics anthology would be incomplete).\u00a0 The works also meet a range of different reading and teaching purposes. For instance, Kripa Joshi\u2019s one-page \u201cMiss Moti, Shattered\u201d is rather explicit or introductory in its address of the effects of immigration and identity crises.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Others address similar topics and themes, but articulate them within more complex narratives that span from superheroic or science fictional epics to exercises in realism. A few representing the former, Shattered <\/em>includes comics such as Parry Shen and Jeremy Arambulo\u2019s \u201cHide and Sikh\u201d about Asian American scientists working for the U.S. government and, with the exposure to radioactive agents in Area 52, transforming into powerful, yet marginalized mutants who struggle to find cool comic book-y catch phrases; Jamie Ford and A.L. Baroza\u2019s \u201cA Cut Above\u201d in which a rogue, saw-wielding student goes on a mission for an \u2018A\u2019; Tanuj Chopra and Alice Meichi Li\u2019s tale of seduction at a casino on the moon; and Roger Ma, Dheeraj Verma and Tak Toyoshima\u2019s \u201cQi Lai!\u201d in which Shaolin monks are entrenched in an epic battle against zombies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

In the latter camp of realistic stories, Shattered<\/em> serves up Michael Kang and Edmund Lee\u2019s tale of a young Korean American man\u2019s struggles with gang violence and imprisonment; Keith Chow and Jef Castro\u2019s \u201cPeril\u201d addresses disputes over Arizona\u2019s immigration policies; Fred Chao\u2019s strip about an almost rooftop kiss that sends him thinking about the deeper should\u2019ve, would\u2019ve, could\u2019ve moments in his life; Joy Osmanski and Yasmin Lang\u2019s narrative about a young girl dealing with the family-cleaving loss of a sibling.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Some of my other favorites blended the epic and mundane, reality and fantasy. In Daniel Jai Lee and Dafu Yu\u2019s \u201cHeroes Without a Country:\u00a0 Tokyo Rose,\u201d a shapeshifting Asian woman has a showdown with Hitler. A story equally, if not more so, entertaining albeit in an entirely different context is Tak Toyoshima\u2019s \u201cOccupy Ethnic Foods,\u201d which portrays Asian, Jewish, and Mexican food products coming to life on the shelves to fight against their segregation to the \u201cEthnic Foods\u201d aisle in the supermarket. The packages of ramen and various cans of sauces even have little arms, with fists raised in protest.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The aforementioned short strips and excerpts from longer works are presented in black and white, but there is a full-color gallery of character sketch collaborations. One noteworthy for the diacritics audience is titled \u201cRevolution Shuffle,\u201d illustrated by GB Tran<\/a>, author and artist of Vietnamerica<\/a><\/em>, and written by Bao Phi<\/a>, the prolific and powerful spoken word poet whose most recent publication is S<\/em>\u00f4ng I Sing<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0 In their collaboration, Tran and Phi contribute to the current zombie apocalypse narrative craze.<\/p>\n

(I am pausing here to resist an intense urge to ramble about how much I love the AMC television adaptation of The Walking Dead <\/em>and\u2014spoiler alert, if you\u2019re behind on Season Three episodes\u2014how glad I am that Lori was killed off, though not by zombified fetus as I\u2019d hoped. Sigh.)<\/p>\n

Tran and Phi envision an American zombie apocalypse as an epidemic for which Asia is blamed, calling attention to the Yellow Peril ideology prevalent during the 19th<\/sup> century and still at work in contemporary media\u2014I mean did anyone see Contagion<\/em>? Sheesh!\u00a0 As a result, the Asian Americans in Tran and Phi\u2019s post-apocalyptic U.S. are corralled into \u201ccontainment camps, where they serve as human bait to lure the undead away.\u201d As a warrior against such historically rooted forces of discrimination, internment, and violence, the protagonist, Lydia Tran and her right-hand man, California Nguyen (badass name, right?) instigate a revolution to overthrow the walking dead. And the living. Da da dum!!!! Check out Tran\u2019s illustration below of the heroine Lydia seen through the gaping hole of a zombie\u2019s brain. And Lydia wears glasses too! (I wonder if people have trouble recognizing her when she takes her glasses off…) What\u2019s not to like?<\/p>\n

Though the comics can be hit and miss, Shattered<\/em> is a welcomed, valuable foundation for Asian American comics, both in terms of reading and studying. The volume is conducive for students and educators alike, as the editors offer discussion guides and opportunities to bring the Secret Identities Universe (that\u2019s right, watch out, Marvel!) into schools. Check out the\u00a0<\/span>Shattered\u00a0<\/em>editors’ website at\u00a0<\/span>www.secretidentities.org<\/a>. \u00a0Beyond that website, there exists a<\/span>n increasing number of print and digital resources on how to utilize comics to teach both linguistic and cultural literacy, as well as higher order critical thinking skills. And in my experience as an educator, assigning comics has been remarkably useful in taking the first, most important step of getting students interested in reading.\u00a0\u00a0If you pick up a copy of Shattered<\/em>, the editors also offer contact info and websites for all of the contributors, allowing us–as readers, educators, and students–to become part of the growing movement of Asian American comics and literature.<\/p>\n
