First, I Would Like to Explain My User ID

Preface I stubled across this PDF file a while back and thought it would be an excellent bonus to my comic book collecting ebook. This is a copy of the comic book that actually started it all for Superheroes. Action Comics #1, the first appearance of Superman came out in 1938. While the authors, a couple of teens Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster didn’t make much on it back then, for those who have one of the few copies left in existence (I have heard, less than 100) now, this comic book is worth a million dollars or more. 2010 became the year of the million dollar comic book. In February an 8.0 (Very Fine) copy sold for one million dollars. In March an 8.5 (Very Fine +) copy sold for 1.5 million dollars. Boy, how would it be to have that kind of disposable income! While this PDF file only contains a copy of the original Superman content, there was actually several more stories featured in the comic book itself. The stories therein were: "Superman" (pp. 1–13) by Siegel and Shuster. "Chuck Dawson" (pp. 14–19) by H. Fleming. "Zatara Master Magician" (pp. 20–31) by Fred Guardineer. "South Sea Strategy" (text feature, pp. 32–33) by Captain Frank Thomas. "Sticky-Mitt Stimson" (pp. 34–37) by Alger. "The Adventures of Marco Polo" (pp. 38–41) by Sven Elven. '"Pep" Morgan' (pp. 42–45) by Fred Guardineer. "Scoop Scanlon Five Star Reporter" (pp. 46–51) by Will Ely. "Tex Thompson" (pp. 52–63) by Bernard Baily. "Stardust" (p. 64) by "The Star-Gazer". "Odds 'N Ends" (inside back cover) by "Moldoff" (Sheldon Moldoff). And if you would like to read the rest of these stories in HTML format, then check out this link: http://xroads.virginia.edu/~ug02/yeung/actioncomics/cover.html But I do hope you enjoy having an electronic copy of the great grandfather, so to speak, of all American superheroes on your own hard drive.

Signature Date: 17/12/2020 ii iii ABSTRACT Since the development of the superhero genre in the late 1930s it has been a contentious area of cultural discourse, particularly concerning its depictions of gender politics. A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

PATRY, PATRY ON COPYRIGHT 22 § 7:52 (2007). 23 In the present case, Joanne Siegel and Laura Siegel Larson, the widow and 24 the daughter of Jerome Siegel, seek a declaration from the Court that they have 25 overcome these odds and have successfully terminated the 1938 grant by Jerome 26 Siegel and his creative partner, Joseph Shuster, of the copyright in their creation of 27 the iconic comic book superhero “Superman,” thereby recapturing Jerome Siegel’s 28 half of the copyright in the same. No small feat indeed. It requires traversing the 1 many impediments — many requiring a detailed historical understanding both 2 factually and legally of the events that occurred between the parties over the past 3 seventy years — to achieving that goal and, just as importantly, reckoning with the 4 limits of what can be gained through the termination of that grant.
