Postfazione. Sul senso della novità nelle narrazioni seriali

Today we often hear about seriality and its great success. But in these conversations, often interested in showing their media skills, updates on the latest success story or the affirmation of a radical chic taste for lesser-known products, it is rare to hear the troubles of Orlando, the fate of the first comic heroes or the exciting love adventures in the now vintage world of photo novels. Thing of which we have spoken instead in this volume, where the very different manifestations textual investigations, the different approaches compared, the various facets highlighted by the individual essays, they integrated themselves to form an articulated totality and consistent. And in retrospect, a series of transversal characteristics emerge that emerge from the reading and that we can only retrace and consider accordingly as foundational and characterizing elements of serial products.
