The output of the Marvel Conics Group in particular is literate, is both narratively and pbSlosophically sophisticated, and is ethically and morally responsible. Some of the narrative tecbntques found in the stories, such as the Spider-Man episodes, include foreshadowing, a dramatic fiction narrator, flashback, irony, symbolism, metaphor, Biblical and historical allusions, and mythological allusions.4MKM1 4 4 *********************************************************************** * Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made * * from the original document. * *********************************************************************** ) U SOEPANTMENTO, HEALD..

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository. 6086. https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/etd/6086 This Dissertation/Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by Scholarship@Western. It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository by an authorized administrator of Scholarship@Western. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Established in 2008 with the release of Iron Man, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has become a ubiquitous transmedia sensation. Its uniquely interwoven narrative provides auspicious grounds for scholarly consideration. The franchise conscientiously presents larger-than-life superheroes as complex and incredibly emotional individuals who form profound interpersonal relationships with one another. This thesis explores Sarah Hagelin’s concept of resistant vulnerability, which she defines as a “shared human experience,” as it manifests in the substantial relationships that Steve Rogers (Captain America) cultivates throughout the Captain America narrative (11). This project focuses on Steve’s relationships with the following characters: Agent Peggy Carter, Natasha Romanoff (Black Widow), and Bucky Barnes (The Winter Soldier).

  • The Phoenix/Jean Grey Across Time and Media Lenise Prater Films
    Gender and Power: The Phoenix/Jean Grey across Time and Media Lenise Prater Films based on comic books have been box-office successes in recent years, particularly the X-Men franchise, which is comprised of a trilogy and two prequels,1 and the X-Men trilogy. Through the characters of Jean Grey and Rogue these films represent women as largely unable to control their powers, and subsequently as significantly dangerous to men.2 Unfortunate- ly, these problematic representations of women are often explained, or even justified, by audience members who tacitly assume, given these films are based on comics of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, that these films will feature more conservative representations of gender. Even bloggers and journalists familiar with comic books offhandedly argue that the sexism in the movies is based on the sexism in the original comics. Journalist Jeff Al- exander, for example, argues that the inclusion of strong women in comic book movies is “an uphill battle,” because “so much of the original comic- book source material is inherently sexist and objectifying to begin with.”3 Similarly, blogger Wraith24, in a discussion of promotional poster for The Avengers, concludes “that even in 2012, the influences of old sexist comics is still quite prevalent.”4 Indeed, it would not, for example, be readily ac- ceptable to name a group of men and women “X-Men” in the year 2001, as is the case with the first movie, because using “man” to describe a group that is partly comprised of women does not make sense as it did in the COLLOQUY text theory critique 24 (2012).

    About Gilbert & Sullivan The Gilbert & Sullivan comic operas were composed between 1871 and 1896 in Victorian London. Their sparkling musical Gilbert & Sullivan Austin scores by Sir Arthur Sullivan and their dazzling lyrics by Sir William S. Gilbert have kept them popular throughout the English-speaking world ever since. They’ve been called the presents “Saturday Night Live” of their day for their satiric appeal, but they have proven universal and timeless in their comic and ironic treatment of human foibles through their “airy persifl age” and “innocent merriment.” And the popular appeal of the music has endeared them to millions who cherish “laughing song and merry dance.” They are arguably the most popular “musical comedies” ever written for the stage. Our Mission Entertaining and educating Texas audiences since 1976, Gilbert and Sullivan Austin is dedicated to spreading the topsy-turvy humor and joyful music of W. S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan.

KITT What was your score? If you're a baby boomer I'm sure it four outta four. The 60's not only are representative of great time for television but also for the auto industry. Design a promotion that features the feel good memories of a period we all remember. Whether firsthand or through music and TV or cars, the nostalgia factor will bring out legions of families. Believe me the young generation know who I am and their parents love to watch "their" favorite old show with em! What I'm offering is an "event" like no other. Professionally designed to bring in customers for you through every media outlet available. This promotion has a long term butterfly effect as each picture and autograph that leaves your dealership with YOUR logo on it, becomes a collectible item which is treasured. Please give it some thought. Ask around and know that the Munsters are the most heavily merchandised show ever. With new licenses issued for 2015 for model cars, shirts , dolls, etc. STILL!! Look forward to hearing from you. Greetings Car Enthusiasts !!! My name is Butch Patrick and I played Eddie on the classic TV show The Munsters.
