Privacy Policy Terms of Service. Supergirl Vol. 3: Sanctuary (The New 52) Supergirl is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character was created by writer Otto Binder and designed by artist Al Plastino. During the s and the revolution of the Modern Age of ComicsSuperman editors believed the character's history had become too convoluted, and desired to re-establish Superman as "The Last Son of Krypton". Supergirl was thus killed during the limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths and retconned out of existence. In the decades following Crisisseveral characters unrelated to Superman used the Supergirl alias. The title paid homage to the original character's debut. As the current Supergirl, Kara Zor-El stars in her own monthly comic book series. In live Supergirl: Sanctuary(the New 52) Volume 3, Supergirl appeared in the film based on her character and was portrayed by Helen Slater. She also appeared in the series Smallvilleplayed by actress Laura Vandervoort. Supergirl is portrayed by Melissa Benoist on the show and also appears on other Arrowverse shows. Although Kara Zor-El was the first character to use Supergirl: Sanctuary(the New 52) Volume 3 name "Supergirl," DC Comics tested three different female versions of Superman prior to her debut. The first story to feature a female counterpart to Superman was " Lois Lane — Superwoman ," which was published in Action Comics 60 May In the story, a hospitalized Lois Lane dreams she has gained superpowers thanks to a blood transfusion Supergirl: Sanctuary(the New 52) Volume 3 the Man of Steel. She begins her own career as "Superwoman", complete with a version of Superman's costume. In the Superboy 78 story entitled "Claire Kent, Alias Super-Sister", Superboy saves the life of an alien woman named Shar-La, who turns Superboy into a girl, in retaliation for his disparaging thoughts about women drivers which she picked up telepathically. In Smallville, Clark claims to be Claire Kent, an out-of-town relative who is staying with the Kents. When in costume, he appears as Superboy's sister, Super-Sister, and claims the two have exchanged places. Once Superboy has learned his lesson about feeling more respect for Supergirl: Sanctuary(the New 52) Volume 3, Shar-La reveals the episode to be a dream which she projected into Superboy's mind. In Superman AugustJimmy Olsen uses a magic totem to wish a "Super-Girl" into existence Supergirl: Sanctuary(the New 52) Volume 3 a companion and aid to Superman; however, the two frequently get in each other's way until she is fatally injured protecting Superman from a Kryptonite meteor. At her insistence, Jimmy wishes the dying girl out of existence. DC used this story to gauge public response to the concept of a completely new super-powered female counterpart to Superman. When the city is doomed by a meteor shower, Kara is sent to Earth by her parents, Zor-El and Alura unnamed until later issuesto be raised by her cousin Kal-El, known as Superman. Supergirl adopted the secret identity of an orphan "Linda Lee", and made Midvale Orphanage her home. Supergirl Supergirl: Sanctuary(the New 52) Volume 3 Superman that she would keep her existence on Earth a secret, so that he may use her as a "secret weapon", but that didn't stop Supergirl from exploring her new Supergirl: Sanctuary(the New 52) Volume 3 covertly. Supergirl, from her debut onwards, became a regular backup strip in Action Comics. During her first quarter of a century Linda Danvers would have many professions, from student, to student advisor, to actor, and even TV camera operator. She shared Action Comics with Superman until transferring to the lead in Adventure Comics at the end of the s. In she finally moved to her own short-lived eponymous magazine, before DC merged its Supergirl, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen titles into a single anthology title named The Superman Family.

  • Myth, Metatext, Continuity and Cataclysm in Dc Comics’ Crisis on Infinite Earths
    WORLDS WILL LIVE, WORLDS WILL DIE: MYTH, METATEXT, CONTINUITY AND CATACLYSM IN DC COMICS’ CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS Adam C. Murdough 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 August 2006 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Marilyn Motz Jeremy Wallach ii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor In 1985-86, DC Comics launched an extensive campaign to revamp and revise its most important superhero characters for a new era. In many cases, this involved streamlining, retouching, or completely overhauling the characters’ fictional back-stories, while similarly renovating the shared fictional context in which their adventures take place, “the DC Universe.” To accomplish this act of revisionist history, DC resorted to a text-based performative gesture, Crisis on Infinite Earths. This thesis analyzes the impact of this singular text and the phenomena it inspired on the comic-book industry and the DC Comics fan community. The first chapter explains the nature and importance of the convention of “continuity” (i.e., intertextual diegetic storytelling, unfolding progressively over time) in superhero comics, identifying superhero fans’ attachment to continuity as a source of reading pleasure and cultural expressivity as the key factor informing the creation of the Crisis on Infinite Earths text. The second chapter consists of an eschatological reading of the text itself, in which it is argued that Crisis on Infinite Earths combines self-reflexive metafiction with the ideologically inflected symbolic language of apocalypse myth to provide DC Comics fans with a textual "rite of transition," to win their acceptance for DC’s mid-1980s project of self- rehistoricization and renewal.

  • “Why So Serious?” Comics, Film and Politics, Or the Comic Book Film As the Answer to the Question of Identity and Narrative in a Post-9/11 World
    ABSTRACT “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD by Kyle Andrew Moody This thesis analyzes a trend in a subgenre of motion pictures that are designed to not only entertain, but also provide a message for the modern world after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The analysis provides a critical look at three different films as artifacts of post-9/11 culture, showing how the integration of certain elements made them allegorical works regarding the status of the United States in the aftermath of the attacks. Jean Baudrillard‟s postmodern theory of simulation and simulacra was utilized to provide a context for the films that tap into themes reflecting post-9/11 reality. The results were analyzed by critically examining the source material, with a cultural criticism emerging regarding the progression of this subgenre of motion pictures as meaningful work. “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Communications Mass Communications Area by Kyle Andrew Moody Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2009 Advisor ___________________ Dr. Bruce Drushel Reader ___________________ Dr. Ronald Scott Reader ___________________ Dr. David Sholle TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ..........................................................................................................................

  • SUPERGIRL “End Title”
    SUPERGIRL “End Title” Music by Jerry Goldsmith -Supergirl (1984) ** [music ****] http://www.amazon.com/Supergirl-Limited-Helen- Slater/dp/6305842027/ref=sr_1_2?s=dvd&ie=UTF8&qid=1293764295&sr=1-2 [NOTE: This document was cut & pasted here from my very long DVD Collection analyses] Here is my YouTube video on the End Title that I created December 22, 2016: https://youtu.be/4hw9taS_5wE While the movie itself is a bit of super-stretched nonsensical entertainment, the music itself by Jerry Goldsmith deserved super-sized praise! I’ll later delineate some of the End Title cue. I am very happy Goldsmith had a chance to enter the Superman universe in terms of providing a score to compare with Williams’ excellent Superman score. Imagine if there was an alternate score to that movie (Goldsmith composing it) instead of the inferior Supergirl. It would be one of those probable realities that I wish I could enter and experience. Of course we already have a five-star super score by Goldsmith from the esteemed Star Trek universe (Star Trek:TMP) and it is difficult to 1 imagine Goldsmith coming up with an even better score for, say, Superman, but we will never know! The movie itself is pretty laughable, campy, kidsy and silly—but it has a certain degree of oh-what-the-heck fun! You really have to suspend any sense of logic in this film. For instance, when Kara (Supergirl, played by cute Helen Slater) rides the inter- dimensional vehicle Zalthar (Peter O’Toole) created to enter the outer reality of Earth, she was wearing her rather floral, flowing outfit.

  • What Superman Teaches Us About the American Dream and Changing Values Within the United States
    TRUTH, JUSTICE, AND THE AMERICAN WAY: WHAT SUPERMAN TEACHES US ABOUT THE AMERICAN DREAM AND CHANGING VALUES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES Lauren N. Karp AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Lauren N. Karp for the degree of Master of Arts in English presented on June 4, 2009 . Title: Truth, Justice, and the American Way: What Superman Teaches Us about the American Dream and Changing Values within the United States Abstract approved: ____________________________________________________________________ Evan Gottlieb This thesis is a study of the changes in the cultural definition of the American Dream. I have chosen to use Superman comics, from 1938 to the present day, as litmus tests for how we have societally interpreted our ideas of “success” and the “American Way.” This work is primarily a study in culture and social changes, using close reading of comic books to supply evidence. I argue that we can find three distinct periods where the definition of the American Dream has changed significantly—and the identity of Superman with it. I also hypothesize that we are entering an era with an entirely new definition of the American Dream, and thus Superman must similarly change to meet this new definition.
