Abstract
Drawing on comic-theoretical discussions of the comics medium's structural queerness – to be determined, above all, in its specific materiality, the media-constitutive figure of repetition, the interlinear reading and, thus, the particular possibilities of a re-reading of (human) bodies – this article demonstrates a posthuman-queer reading of comics. To this end, the comic-theoretical bases are given a new perspective through Karen Barad's elaborations on Nature's Queer Performativity. Subsequently, productively re_dis-arranging readings of bodies in comics are traced. As examples serve Ken Dahl's Monsters, Martin tom Dieck and Jens Balzer's Salut, Deleuze!, Regina Hofer's Blad, and Anke Feuchtenberger's Das Haus.
