How do series work?

To create a series or add a work to it, go to a 'work' page. The 'Common Knowledge' section now includes a 'Series' field. Enter the name of the series to add the book to it.

Works can belong to more than one series. In some cases, as with Chronicles of Narnia, disagreements about order necessitate the creation of more than one series.

Tip: If the series has an order, add a number or other descriptor in parenthesis after the series title (eg., 'Chronicles of Prydain (book 1)'). By default, it sorts by the number, or alphabetically if there is no number. If you want to force a particular order, use the | character to divide the number and the descriptor. So, '(0|prequel)' sorts by 0 under the label 'prequel.'

What isn't a series?

Series was designed to cover groups of books generally understood as such (see Wikipedia: Book series). Like many concepts in the book world, 'series' is a somewhat fluid and contested notion. A good rule of thumb is that series have a conventional name and are intentional creations, on the part of the author or publisher. For now, avoid forcing the issue with mere 'lists' of works possessing an arbitrary shared characteristic, such as relating to a particular place. Avoid series that cross authors, unless the authors were or became aware of the series identification (eg., avoid lumping Jane Austen with her continuators).

Also avoid publisher series, unless the publisher has a true monopoly over the 'works' in question. So, the Dummies guides are a series of works. But the Loeb Classical Library is a series of editions, not of works.

Simultaneously with their release of Click! 4 Eurotica issued this handsome hardback compilation of the previous three books, then out of print. Three elements connect the three tales within. One is the sumptuous art of Milo Manara, worshipper of the female form, the second is Claudia, ashamed possessor of a spectacular female form, and third is the device providing the title. It’s a transmitter, that when activated transforms Claudia into the personality she suppresses, that of a raging sexual beast. Beyond that and their erotic theme the three books are very different in tone.

The first and best dates from the 1980s, and is a slapstick farce punctuated by sexual interludes. It’s beautifully illustrated (see sample page) in a fittingly comedic style and shows Manara still developing as an artist despite well over a decade of published work behind him when he produced the book. There’s a greater obsession with tight background detail than in the sequels, and a greater attention to the continuity, which concludes with a twist ignored for the following work.

A greater freedom or obsession with the sexual content characterises the second volume, published seven years after the first in 1991. Manara lingers on the female form, extends the sex sequences and worships at the alter of his own drawings. These are beautiful studies, sometimes having more in common with fine art life drawings than comics, and the final copulation sequence on the roof of a tower block is stunningly drawn. It’s the art that holds Manara’s interest, and any story here is just the peg upon which to hang his fantasies. Matters remain unresolved for those who care about such things in an erotic graphic novel.

Click! 3 is positively unpleasant in places. While there’s a slim justification for the title device unleashing what’s already within, there’s absolutely none for the opening sequences of a woman being beaten and anally abused. Within the narrative needs what requires establishing could have been handled in an infinite number of more sensitive ways. More story content is applied to Click! 3, enabling Manara to vary his locations and settings, but it’s of the shaggy dog variety. Don’t expect an awful lot in the way of coherence.

Watch pretty little liars eng sub ep. So, three beautifully drawn but flimsy stories from a master artist, but everyone will have their own moral viewpoint on the content.

This volume is long out of print and commanding exorbitant prices. The best way forward for anyone wanting the stories without paying that is to pick up the first volume of Manara Erotica, which includes all three plus the sequel, but in black and white. It’s a tricky decision, as the books have been re-coloured from the primitive work applied to the original English publications, and the colour now does the art some form of justice. The inducement of the Dark Horse anthology is new and considerably improved translations by Kim Thompson.
