Acesso em: 5 dez. 2022.e- 2179-5282http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/21657This qualitative research aims to analyze the pharmaceutical manufacture of the subject in two comics by Andre Dahmer by utilizing an interpretive method. The theoretical framework is based on the works of Foucault (1995a, 1995b, 1996, 2003, 2009) and Le Breton (2003) while the comic book theory uses the works of Eisner (2001; 2005) and Ramos (2009). In the research process, we discuss the routine and commonplace use of psychotropic drugs in healthy people. In these analyzed comics, the use of drugs, such as Ritalin, that aim to control, dominate, change the mood failed to adjust and discipline young adults and children. Lastly, we propose some aspects related to the power relations, resistance, and others.porAcesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/QuadrinhosFármacosSujeitosComicsDrugsSubjectArtigo10.3895/rl.v17n20.2784
