María José Álvarez Faedo VºBº: Oviedo, 2012 To comic book creators of yesterday, today and tomorrow. The comics medium is a very specialized area of the Arts, home to many rare and talented blooms and flowering imaginations and it breaks my heart to see so many of our best and brightest bowing down to the same market pressures which drive lowest-common-denominator blockbuster movies and television cop shows. Let's see if we can call time on this trend by demanding and creating big, wild comics which stretch our imaginations. Let's make living breathing, sprawling adventures filled with mind-blowing images of things unseen on Earth. Let's make artefacts that are not faux-games or movies but something other, something so rare and strange it might as well be a window into another universe because that's what it is.

Some entries have been removed, added, or modified to better fit this format. The DC universe is long and storied one, in more ways than one. It’s a universe filled with adventure around every corner, not least among them on Earth, an unassuming but cosmically significant planet out of the way of most space territories. Heroes and villains, from the bottom of the Dark Multiverse to the top of the Monitor Sphere, endlessly struggle for justice, for power, and for control over the fate of the very multiverse itself.

  • Preparation for the Final Crisis by Fernando Chaij
    Foreword The Pacific Press ® Publishing Association has supplied for its constituents a very fine book entitled Preparation for the Final Crisis by Fernando Chaij. We believe that the study of this book is important to every Seventh-day Adventist in this late hour of earth’s history. In order to make its study more meaningful, we strongly recommend the use of these study outlines by our churches—pastors and lay leaders alike. Elder C. J. Ritchie, a seasoned and competent Bible scholar, has prepared these studies to coincide with the pagination and the chapters in Dr. Chaij’s book. We are often asked by church elders for material that can be used in prayer meeting studies. We heartily recommend this outline to our church elders and pastors for prayer meeting studies and Bible conferences. Note the words of Ellen G. White: "As we near the close of this world’s history, the prophecies relating to the last days especially demand our study."—Testimonies to Ministers, page 116. "The perils of the last days are upon us, and in our work we are to warn the people of the danger they are in. Let not the solemn scenes which prophecy has revealed be left untouched. If our people were half awake, if they realized the nearness of the events portrayed in the Revelation, a reformation would be wrought in our churches, and many more would believe the message."—Ibid., p. 118. Our General Conference president and the recent evangelistic councils emphasize a heart preparation for the finishing of God’s work in all the world.

La crítica . el análisis del discurso no es ni puede ser ”interno”, porque ni siquiera podemos identificar lo que hay que describir en una superficie discursiva, sin tener hipótesis sobre las condiciones pro- ductivas. (Eliseo Verón, ”El sentido como producción discursiva”, 1993, 127.) En los últimos años descendió sobre los lectores, incluso sobre aquellos que pertenecemos a la Santa Iglesia de Grant Morrison, una general sensación de que el trabajo superheroico del escocés está perdiendo su sentido. O al menos su carácter utópico. Hay varias etapas en la carrera de Morrison y si me pongo a delinearlas a todas acá y extenderme en sus características podríamos tener un artículo el doble de largo1 pero se puede sintetizar lo siguiente: de 1996 hasta su retorno a DC en el 2005 se desarrolla la primer gran etapa de Morrison como adalid del optimismo y la creación exagerada, pop, psicodélica, absurda y un poco naif del mundo de los superhéroes. El Morrison que antes que teorizar en sus entrevistas, cumple y hace, que trae 1 Además se podría hablar de dos líneas simultáneas todo el tiempo: por un lado su trabajo independiente y por otro su trabajo superheroico. Sin embargo estas dos líneas se entrecruzan y polinizan de forma cruzada de forma constante: no se puede pensar en New X-Men (y Marvel Boy) sin Seaguy, no se puede pensar en JLA sin The Invisibles, no se puede pensar en Multiversity sin Annihilator y Nameless.
