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).

  • Movie Review: ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp’
    Movie Review: ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp’ NEW YORK — There’s plenty of humor and action in the fast-paced sci-fi adventure “Ant-Man and the Wasp” (Disney). What’s noticeably lacking is any exposition or guidance for those not already familiar with the characters and their relationships from 2015’s “Ant-Man” and 2016’s “Captain America: Civil War.” While the film can still be enjoyed on its own, newcomers will feel somewhat left out as a result. One example of the potential confusion awaiting novices is the fact that, when we first encounter him, Scott Lang aka Ant-Man (Paul Rudd, who also co-wrote the script) is approaching the end of a two-year sentence of house arrest. That’s the consequence, we learn, at least by implication, of his activities in the latter of the two previous movies. But specifics on what exactly he did are not shared. Whatever his wrongdoing, Scott — whose alter ego, thanks to a high-tech suit, can shrink or grow at will — is now anxious to focus on serving his time and raising his young daughter, Cassie (Abby Ryder Fortson). Scott’s good resolutions are undermined, however, when his predecessor as Ant- Man, Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), and Pym’s daughter, Hope (Evangeline Lilly), aka the Wasp, draw him into their quest to rescue Hope’s mother, Janet (Michelle Pfeiffer), the original Wasp. Janet been stuck for decades in the Quantum Realm, a kind of subatomic limbo. To retrieve her, the trio will have to do battle with two principal enemies: Sonny Burch (Walton Goggins), a petty gangster out to profit from Pym’s technological breakthroughs, and Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), a victim of Pym’s past misdeeds.

  • International Literary Program
    PROGRAM & GUIDE International Literary Program LISBON June 29 July 11 2014 ORGANIZATION SPONSORS SUPPORT GRÉMIO LITERÁRIO Bem-Vindo and Welcome to the fourth annual DISQUIET International Literary Program! We’re thrilled you’re joining us this summer and eagerly await meeting you in the inimitable city of Lisbon – known locally as Lisboa. As you’ll soon see, Lisboa is a city of tremendous vitality and energy, full of stunning, surprising vistas and labyrinthine cobblestone streets. You wander the city much like you wander the unexpected narrative pathways in Fernando Pessoa’s The Book of Disquiet, the program’s namesake. In other words, the city itself is not unlike its greatest writer’s most beguiling text. Thanks to our many partners and sponsors, traveling to Lisbon as part of the DISQUIET program gives participants unique access to Lisboa’s cultural life: from private talks on the history of Fado (aka The Portuguese Blues) in the Fado museum to numerous opportunities to meet with both the leading and up-and- coming Portuguese authors. The year’s program is shaping up to be one of our best yet. Among many other offerings we’ll host a Playwriting workshop for the first time; we have a special panel dedicated to the Three Marias, the celebrated trio of women who collaborated on one of the most subversive books in Portuguese history; and we welcome National Book Award-winner Denis Johnson as this year’s guest writer. Our hope is it all adds up to a singular experience that elevates your writing and affects you in profound and meaningful ways.

  • Manomyth: Why Super Political Challenges Produce Supermen and Exclude Superwomen
    MPCA 2009 Convention Submission The American MANomyth: Why Super Political Challenges Produce Supermen and Exclude Superwomen Dr. J. Richard Stevens ([email protected]), University of Colorado at Boulder Dr. Christopher Bell ([email protected]), University of Colorado at Boulder Abstract: The election of 2008 proved a significant moment for the role of popular culture in political decision-making, particularly for comic books. As Jewett and Lawrence have observed, the American Monomyth is an influential narrative for activating attitudes of justice, dealing with cultural threats and establishing social norms. However, the American Monomyth appears to be exclusively masculine in structure, perhaps explaining why there is more support for a minority “hero” in the American psyche than for a female. This paper reviews 283 portrayals of sitting American presidents in American comic books and analyzes the differences between those portrayals, the portrayals of Barack Obama and John McCain, and the portrayals of Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin and Michelle Obama. While most U.S. public official portrayals emphasize the public office (and often as dependent upon super-powered intervention), Obama and McCain actually take on characteristics of the superhero archetype. In particular, the “origin stories” of McCain and Obama presented in the IDW and Antarctic Press biographies make use of the classic superhero trope, while similar comic depictions of the female public figures struggled to fit the established conventions of the genre. The researchers consider similarities between the birth of the superhero archetype during the Great Depression and the 2008 economic meltdown to consider the environment that produced the superhero associations, and consider the potential ramifications in electorate expectations for the superheroic framing of America’s commander-in-chief, as well as its inability to transfer superheroic traits to female figures.

  • A Loss-Of-Function and H2B-Venus
    Freyer et al. BMC Developmental Biology (2015) 15:38 DOI 10.1186/s12861-015-0086-5 METHODOLOGY ARTICLE Open Access A loss-of-function and H2B-Venus transcriptional reporter allele for Gata6 in mice Laina Freyer1, Christian Schröter2, Néstor Saiz1, Nadine Schrode1, Sonja Nowotschin1, Alfonso Martinez-Arias2 and Anna-Katerina Hadjantonakis1* Abstract Background: The GATA-binding factor 6 (Gata6) gene encodes a zinc finger transcription factor that often functions as a key regulator of lineage specification during development. It is the earliest known marker of the primitive endoderm lineage in the mammalian blastocyst. During gastrulation, GATA6 is expressed in early cardiac mesoderm and definitive endoderm progenitors, and is necessary for development of specific mesoderm and endoderm-derived organs including the heart, liver, and pancreas. Furthermore, reactivation or silencing of the Gata6 locus has been associated with certain types of cancer affecting endodermal organs. Results: We have generated a Gata6H2B-Venus knock-in reporter mouse allele for the purpose of labeling GATA6- expressing cells with a bright nuclear-localized fluorescent marker that is suitable for live imaging at single-cell resolution. Conclusions: Expression of the Venus reporter was characterized starting from embryonic stem (ES) cells, through mouse embryos and adult animals. The Venus reporter was not expressed in ES cells, but was activated upon endoderm differentiation. Gata6H2B-Venus/H2B-Venus homozygous embryos did not express GATA6 protein and failed to specify the primitive endoderm in the blastocyst. However, null blastocysts continued to express high levels of Venus in the absence of GATA6 protein, suggesting that early Gata6 transcription is independent of GATA6 protein expression.
