Crossmedia Adaptation and the Development of Continuity in the Dc Animated Universe
“INFINITE EARTHS”: CROSSMEDIA ADAPTATION AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONTINUITY IN THE DC ANIMATED UNIVERSE Alex Nader A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2015 Committee: Jeff Brown, Advisor Becca Cragin © 2015 Alexander Nader All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeff Brown, Advisor This thesis examines the process of adapting comic book properties into other visual media. I focus on the DC Animated Universe, the popular adaptation of DC Comics characters and concepts into all-ages programming. This adapted universe started with Batman: The Animated Series and comprised several shows on multiple networks, all of which fit into a shared universe based on their comic book counterparts. The adaptation of these properties is heavily reliant to intertextuality across DC Comics media. The shared universe developed within the television medium acted as an early example of comic book media adapting the idea of shared universes, a process that has been replicated with extreme financial success by DC and Marvel (in various stages of fruition). I address the process of adapting DC Comics properties in television, dividing it into “strict” or “loose” adaptations, as well as derivative adaptations that add new material to the comic book canon. This process was initially slow, exploding after the first series (Batman: The Animated Series) changed networks and Saturday morning cartoons flourished, allowing for more opportunities for producers to create content. References, crossover episodes, and the later series Justice League Unlimited allowed producers to utilize this shared universe to develop otherwise impossible adaptations that often became lasting additions to DC Comics publishing. -

"GOTHAM" Written by Bruno Heller 2Nd Network Draft
GOTHAM 2nd Revised Network Draft (013114) CLEAN Written by Bruno Heller "GOTHAM" Written by Bruno Heller 2nd Network Draft © 2014 Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. This script is the property of Warner Bros. Entertainment, Inc. No portion of this script may be performed, reproduced or used by any means, or disclosed to, quoted or published in any medium without the prior written consent of Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. TEASER FADE IN: EXT. GOTHAM CITY - DUSK (D/1) We’re ten stories above the street, perched on the edge of an old office building. A stone GARGOYLE gazes blindly at a majestic mountain range of Gothic stone spires and sleek glass towers under a darkening blue sky, bathed in the golden light of the setting sun. SELINA KYLE (14) - an elfin girl dressed in street Goth style, the future CATWOMAN - appears alongside the gargoyle and scans the streets below, a hunter searching for prey. Without any hesitation, she launches herself from the edge of the roof onto a fire escape one floor below and - using drainpipes, window ledges, and light fixtures - descends to street level with amazing nerve and agility. EXT. THEATER DISTRICT STREET. GOTHAM Imagine New York City’s Times Square in the 1970s and then turn the dial to eleven - squalid but sexy, dangerous but glamorous. Colorful GOTHAMITES and gawking TOURISTS watch TWO GANG MEMBERS brawling violently in the middle of the road. One gangster wears crude HOME MADE BODY ARMOR and wields a machete, the other wears a garish ZOOT SUIT and is armed with a hammer. Nobody notices Selina slide from a store awning onto the sidewalk. -

Comic Book Biography: Keith Giffen by Rik Offenberger
Comic Book Biography: Keith Giffen by Rik Offenberger It’s one of the better creator stories of the past couple of years. After a stretch where he could barely get a nod of recognition from Marvel or DC, Keith Giffen is experiencing a career renaissance rarely seen. While he was a major force to contend with in comics in the later ‘80s and ‘90s, thanks to his work on Legion of Super- Heroes and Justice League, both titles ultimately went through major shifts in tone, and as their directions changed, so did their writer. For a long-ish period, it seemed that Giffen was gone from comics as well. His name would pop up occasionally, but for the most part, comics seemed to have moved on, and Giffen wasn’t on the train. Give it a few years, and things do change. With a solid foundation based in translating popular manga series, and some new superhero work through Boom! Studios, Giffen is back in full force, overseeing not one, but two major events: Annihilation at Marvel and 52 at DC. It’s a comeback that would make not only any of Giffen’s contemporaries, but…well, any creator working in mainstream comics jealous. During some of his rare free time, we sat down with Giffen for a look back, around, and forward. Newsarama: Keith, let's just jump into it at the beginning - where did you study art? Keith Giffen: The Little Falls public library. I didn't really have any formal art training and it shows. The year I spent at the NY School of Visual Arts was a faux hippie, metaphysical nightmare and the night courses I took at the DuCret School only reinforced what I'd already pulled from the library's books. -
“Men in Tights, Women Who Fight: Gender, Race, & Superheroes”
Humanities Seminars Program Spring 2016 “Men In Tights, Women Who Fight: Gender, Race, & Superheroes” Monica J. Casper Details Tuesdays, 10 AM – Noon March 1 – April 5 (no class on March 15) Dorothy Rubel Room, UA Poetry Center [email protected] • (520) 621-1112 Description Superman, Wonder Woman, Spiderman, Batman, Captain America, Green Lantern, Iron Man, Black Widow--the list of America’s superheroes is long. Comic books, TV, and cinema have long built up the appeal of superheroes, and they remain ever popular. Embodiments of cultural meanings, social practices, and political imaginaries, superheroes creatively tell us stories about ourselves. Historically, representations of superheroes have been connected to national security and the Cold War, changing gender roles, racial stereotypes, and environmental issues. In this course, we attend to gender, race, and sex as they play out in the bodies, lives, and storylines of America’s superheroes. We ask, for example: What can Wonder Woman’s history tell us about gender and sex in the 20th century? How do Batman and Superman differently represent masculinity? What can Monica Rambeau, Storm, and Ms. Marvel tell us about intersections of race and gender? And what do superheroes reveal about national identity, cultural memory, and collective hope? Required materials are available at the UA Bookstore, except where otherwise noted. Week 1, March 1 Read Lepore, Jill. The Secret History of Wonder Woman. Vintage, 2015. ISBN- 10: 0804173400.

To Be a Superhero
Rabbi Joshua Samuels Congregation Beth Israel Erev Rosh Hashanah September 09, 2018 _____________________________________________________________________ To Be A Superhero It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s…. Yes, we all know it’s Superman. He will forever be my favorite of all super- heroes. There are just so many dimensions to this man. He’s incredibly strong. He can fly faster than a speeding bullet. He can reverse time. He can exhale ice. He has heat and X-ray vision. He is kind. He is always on the lookout for helping people in need. And he can get changed in a jiffy. Superman has got it all. There are no other superheroes, in my opinion, that compare to him. He’s the Muhammed Ali of superheroes: the greatest there ever was. While none can quite measure up to “The Man of Steel,” many other su- perheroes have very similar roots. Just think about it for a moment: Who created Superman, Batman, Spider- man, The Fantastic 4, The Avengers, The Incredible Hulk, Ant Man, Iron Man, Thor and Captain America? Jews! Jewish comic book writers and il- lustrators created nearly all of the most well-known superheroes we have come to love. Take for instance Superman’s creators. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, two Jewish kids from Cleveland, met in High School and developed their most famous character in 1933. Siegel’s parents fled pogroms in Lithuania around 1900, the same time my family came to America from Lithuania, and coincidentally, with the same exact surname. Joe Shuster’s parents came from Jewish families in Kiev and Rotterdam. -
Christina Hodson
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 2020 / 2:00 PM with Christina Hodson (Screenwriter/Co-Producer) You ever hear the one about the cop, the blonde, the psycho, and the mafia princess? Birds Of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is a twisted tale told by Harley herself, as only Harley can tell it. When one of Gotham’s most sinister villains, Roman Sionis, and his sadistic right-hand, Zsasz, put a target on a young girl named Cass, the city’s wicked underbelly is turned upside down looking for her. Harley, Huntress, Canary, and Renee Montoya’s paths collide and the unlikely foursome has no choice but to team up to take Roman down. Script to Screen is delighted to welcome screenwriter/co-producer Christina Hodson for a virtual Q&A. The conversation will be moderated by Pollock Theater Director Matt Ryan. This event will not include a film screening. Birds Of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) can be streamed in advance on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Google Play, HBO Max, Vudu, and Youtube. This event is sponsored by the Carsey-Wolf Center, the Department of Film & Media Studies, and the Scott Frank Fund for Screenwriting SCREENWRITER/CO-PRODUCER CHRISTINA HODSON Christina Hodson first transitioned from development executive to screenwriter in 2012. Her first three spec scripts were featured on the Black List three years in a row. The last of these, The Eden Project, was a sci-fi action script that sold to Sony in a bidding war. This development led to Christina joining the Transformers writers’ room for Paramount in 2015. -
