For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Spider-Man, the question and the meta-zone: exception, objectivism and the comics of Steve Ditko Abstract The idea of the superhero as justice figure has been well rehearsed in the literature around the intersections between superheroes and the law. This relationship has also informed superhero comics themselves – going all the way back to Superman’s debut in Action Comics 1 (June 1938). As DC President Paul Levitz says of the development of the superhero: ‘There was an enormous desire to see social justice, a rectifying of corruption. Superman was a fulfillment of a pent-up passion for the heroic solution’ (quoted in Poniewozik 2002: 57).

The BBC's Handling of Historic Sex Abuse
The BBC’s handling of historic sex abuse How four differing cases expose poor BBC governance ‘“A serial rapist and a predatory sexual abuser both hid in plain sight at the BBC for decades… The BBC failed you when it should have protected you. I am deeply sorry for the hurt caused… It seems to me that the BBC could have known. Just as powerful as the accusation “You knew”, is the legitimate question: “How could you not have known?”’ Director General of the BBC, responding to the Dame Janet Smith enquiry. (Hall, 2016) Jimmy Savile was one of the BBC’s biggest celebrity broadcasters from the 1960s to 1990s. Starting as the original presenter of Top of the Pops, his career reached its apogee with his primetime BBC1 show Jim’ll Fix It, which ran weekly for 3 months each year between 1975 to 1994, attracting up to 20m viewers. He was the “nation’s favourite uncle” (Hall, 2016), as he realised the dreams of 1,324 children on-screen (Tinniswood, 2017). He also raised over £40m for charities (Telegraph, 2011), earning him a knighthood. However, the Dame Janet Smith’s Independent Enquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (2016) concluded that he had raped at least 8 people and abused 64 others on BBC premises, including 37 under the age of 16. Including his charitable [sic] work in hospitals and schools, an estimated 450 victims were uncovered by the police’s Operation Yew Tree (NSPCC, 2013), making him one the UK’s most notorious sex offenders. The BBC and other organisations had evidence to prevent it at the time, and when allegations began stacking up in later years, he was given apparent VIP immunity (Smith, 2016). -
Sagt Mal Do Do.“ Unfreiwillig Komischer Höhepunkt: Bryan Adams, Der Einen Preis Als Bester Sänger Erhielt Und Die Frisur Des Selbstmörders Kurt Cobain Spazierentrug
Größe für die Musiksender, stärker auf den Newcomer. Viva ist erfolgreich in eine Lücke gestoßen, die MTV – 1987 vom US-Unternehmen Viacom auch in Europa gestartet – zu lange übersehen hatte. Während beim längst traditionellen Music-Awards-Spektakel in den USA die besten Songschreiber, Gagautoren, Choreographen und Popstars Jahr für Jahr ein furios-komisches Feuerwerk der Popkultur veranstalten, gab es in Berlin bloß schlechte Witze. Moderator Tom Jones fragte die Sängerin Neneh Cherry, ob sie Neneh Cheddar heiße – matter Applaus; Tom Jones zum Publi- kum: „Sagt mal Do Do.“ Unfreiwillig komischer Höhepunkt: Bryan Adams, der einen Preis als bester Sänger erhielt und die Frisur des Selbstmörders Kurt Cobain spazierentrug. Madonna, Michael Jackson und die Rolling Stones, die den diesjährigen US- Awards bizarre Auftritte schenkten, wurden in Berlin als Spitting Images verhöhnt.

May 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press
Jan 12 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) gathered in New York to celebrate the Great Detective's 158th birthday during the long weekend from Jan. 11 to Jan. 15. The festivities began with the traditional ASH Wednesday dinner sponsored by The Adventuresses of Sherlock Holmes at O'Casey's and continued with the Christopher Morley Walk led by Jim Cox and Dore Nash on Thursday morning, followed by the usual lunch at McSorley's). The Baker Street Irregulars' Distinguished Speaker at the Midtown Executive Club on Thursday evening was Dr. Lisa Sanders, author of a "Diagnosis" col- umn for the N.Y. Times and the technical advisor for the television series "House, M.D."; the title of her talk was "Is Holmes Crazy As a Fox, or Just Plain Crazy?", and you will be able to read her paper in the next issue of The Baker Street Journal. The William Gillette Luncheon at Moran's was well attended, as always, and featured Donny Zaldin and Hartley Nathan in a Sherlockian "Carnac the Mag- nificent" skit and the Friends of Bogie's at Baker Street (Paul Singleton, Sarah Montague, and Andrew Joffe) in a Sherlockian tribute to the centenary of the sinking of the Titanic. The luncheon also was the occasion for Al Gregory's presentation of the annual Jan Whimsey award (named in memory of his wife Jan Stauber) for the most whimsical piece in The Serpentine Muse last year; the winner (Karen Murdock, author of "Do You Write Like Arthur Conan Doyle?") received a certificate and a check for the Canonical sum of $221.17. -
