Through a study about Joe Sacco s series Palestine and his books Notes from a defeatist and Footnotes in Gaza, this research aims to show how the art of the comics emerges as an appropriate language to address a complex issue as the conflict between Arabs and Jews in dispute for the Palestinian territory. Based on the Identity approach, considering how the journalist and cartoonist Joe Sacco, Maltese by birth, cosmopolitan by vocation, constructs a narrative that highlights the otherness, establishing a productive counterpoint to understand this conflict in the Middle East: from the perspective of those that, by Western corporations that emerged, were thrown to the mists of oblivion. From the new perspectives provided by various historiography strands, as the Intellectual History and Cultural Studies, aggregate to a rich conceptual framework for research on manned imagery issue, it is possible to envision new paradigms that can be incorporated into the research on the topic in order to enter the HQ universe into contemporary historiography discussions. Theme whose interest is piqued by naturally transcends the clichés for this conferred a priori. It is understood by commonplace in this case the sphere of entertainment, which includes mostly symbolic products disseminated on a large scale marketing purposes and for leisure.
