  • Historicizing the Liminal Superhero
    BOX OFFICE BACK ISSUES: HISTORICIZING THE LIMINAL SUPERHERO FILMS, 1989–2008 by ZACHARY ROMAN A DISSERTATION Presented to the School of Journalism and Communication and the Graduate School of the University of Oregon in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2020 DISSERTATION APPROVAL PAGE Student: Zachary Roman Title: Box Office Back Issues: Historicizing the Liminal Superhero Films, 1989–2008 This dissertation has been accepted and approved in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree in the School of Journalism and Communication by: Peter Alilunas Chairperson Janet Wasko Core Member Erin Hanna Core Member Benjamin Saunders Institutional Representative and Kate Mondloch Interim Vice-Provost and Dean of the Graduate School Original approval signatures are on file with the University of Oregon Graduate School. Degree awarded December 2020 ii © 2020 Zachary Roman iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Zachary Roman Doctor of Philosophy School of Journalism and Communication December 2020 Title: Box Office Back Issues: Historicizing the Liminal Superhero Films, 1989–2008 Although the superhero film became a dominant force in Hollywood early in the 21st century, the formation of the superhero genre can be attributed to a relatively small temporal window beginning in 1989 and ending in 2008. This dissertation argues that a specific group of superhero films that I call the liminal superhero films (LSF) collectively served as the industrial body that organized and created a fully formed superhero genre. The LSF codified the superhero genre, but that was only possible due to several industrial elements at play before they arrived. An increasing industrial appetite for blockbusters coming out of the 1970s, the rise of proprietary intellectual property after the corporate conglomeration that occurred at the end of the 20th century, and finally, the ability of the LSF to mitigate risk (both real and perceived) all led to this cinematic confluence.

En consecuencia, la hipótesis sostiene que el movimiento #MeToo, viralizado en el 2017, ha generado un cambio en la representación gráfica de las mujeres en los cómics de superhéroes. Por comprobarla, se ha realizado un análisis de contenido de veinticuatro números en total, seleccionando un personaje por editorial: Poison Ivy, Emma Frost y Jessica Priest, respectivamente. Se tomaron en consideración herramientas del lenguaje visual y su valor dentro del contexto narrativo. Igualmente, se realizaron entrevistas a una ilustradora de cómics, así como una especialista en cómics y estudios de género.

  • Violent Comic Books Influence Relational Aggression
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 447 365 CG 030 432 AUTHOR Kirsh, Steven J.; Olczak, Paul V. TITLE Violent Comic Books Influence Relational Aggression. PUB DATE 2000-08-00 NOTE 6p.; Poster presented at the Annual Conference of the American Psychological Association (108th, Washington, DC, August 4-8, 2000). PUB TYPE Reports Research (143) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Aggression; *Bias; Cognitive Processes; College Students; *Comics (Publications); Higher Education; *Violence ABSTRACT This paper assesses the impact that reading violent comic books has on hostile attributional bias using relationally aggressive scenarios. College students (N.85) read either very violent or mildly violent comic books. Participants rated the comic books on levels of violence, humor, interest level, and overall likeability. They also read five hypothetical stories in which a relationally aggressive event occurs to a child, but the intent of the provocateur is unclear. Participants then answered questions concerning the stories. Like previous research, results show that when using overt provocation situations trait hostility was significantly related to attributions about the provocateur. They also show that an individual with a chronically aggressive construct will typically demonstrate biased social information-processing. In addition, the results offer support for the contention that violent comic books influence the perception of relationally ambiguous provocation situations. When asked about the intent of the provocateur, participants reading the very violent comic book responded significantly more negatively than participants reading the mildly violent comic book. Thus, violent comic books appear to lead to a short term relational hostile attributional bias. Also, participants reading the violent comic book ascribed a more negative emotional state to the provocateur than participants reading the mildly violent comic book.(MKA) Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document.
