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.

    HOW SUPERMAN DEVELOPED INTO A JESUS FIGURE CRISIS ON INFINITE TEXTS: HOW SUPERMAN DEVELOPED INTO A JESUS FIGURE By ROBERT REVINGTON, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Robert Revington, September 2018 MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies McMaster University MASTER OF ARTS (2018) Hamilton, Ontario, Religious Studies TITLE: Crisis on Infinite Texts: How Superman Developed into a Jesus Figure AUTHOR: Robert Revington, B.A., M.A (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Travis Kroeker NUMBER OF PAGES: vi, 143 ii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies LAY ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness. It argues that this connection was not integral to the character as he was originally created, but was imposed by later writers over time and mainly for cinematic adaptations. This thesis also tracks the history of how Christians and churches viewed Superman, as the film studios began to exploit marketing opportunities by comparing Superman and Jesus. This thesis uses the methodological framework of intertextuality to ground its treatment of the sources, but does not follow all of the assumptions of intertextual theorists. iii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness. Superman was created in 1938, but the character developed significantly from his earliest incarnations.

  • A Cat-Tales Companion
    A Cat-Tales Companion The Companion is a diverse, and not especially well-organized collection of snippets, rantings, and extras connected to the Cat Tales series: The recipes for d’Annunzio’s Shrimp Arrabiatta, the real life models for Nirvana the ocelot, how ‘Pheromones’ got his name, and what really happened at Clark Kent’s bachelor party. These items are divided roughly into the following categories: Catverse: Cat-Tales continuity, shown in purple DCU: DC continuity, shown in blue Reality: From the real world, or the real world’s history, pop culture, or literature A Girls’ Gotta Protect Her Reputation Catverse Cat Tails or Cat Tales Cats have tails, and tales are stories, so when Selina mounted her one-woman show, she thought Cat Tales was a cute play on words. Thus began her first flirtation with the legitimate world, where it turned out, the mass of people aren’t nearly as quick- witted as Batman. Fearing that the unwashed masses would not get the pun, the geniuses in the marketing office had the first run of programs made up as Cat Tales (no hyphen), while the ticket stock was printed Cat-Tales, the press release read Cat Tails, and the souvenir sweatshirts had Cattails. The 9-to-5ers responsible for this tangle all brought their issues to Selina, who didn’t care one way or the other. By this time the posters and window cards had arrived, reading Cat-Tails. When the mass of publicists, marketing directors, box office staffers, & business managers presented themselves at her dressing room door, Selina informed them that the tip of a cracked bullwhip accelerates to 1100 feet per second.
