In the span of five years, the balance of power in the comic book field had changed dramatically. Industry leader Dell had fallen out of favor thanks to a 1962 split with client Western Publications that resulted in the latter producing comics for themselves—much of it licensed properties—as the widely-respected Gold Key Comics. The stuffily-named National Periodical Publications—later better known as DC Comics—had seized the number one spot for itself al- though its flagship Superman title could only claim the honor of

Yet, while fan-centred franchises and crowdfunding projects have garnered some scholarly attention, there has been less discussion of the ways that gender, race, and sexuality intersect with media production and marketing.

    ‘Yes, But What Have You Done for Me Lately?’: Intersections of Intellectual Property, Work-for-Hire, and The Struggle of the Creative Precariat in the American Comic Book Industry © 2019 By Ora Charles McWilliams Submitted to the graduate degree program in American Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Henry Bial Germaine Halegoua Joo Ok Kim Date Defended: 10 May, 2019 ii The dissertation committee for Ora Charles McWilliams certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: ‘Yes, But What Have You Done for Me Lately?’: Intersections of Intellectual Property, Work-for-Hire, and The Struggle of the Creative Precariat in the American Comic Book Industry Co-Chair: Ben Chappell Co-Chair: Elizabeth Esch Date Approved: 24 May 2019 iii Abstract The comic book industry has significant challenges with intellectual property rights. Comic books have rarely been treated as a serious art form or cultural phenomenon. It used to be that creating a comic book would be considered shameful or something done only as side work. Beginning in the 1990s, some comic creators were able to leverage enough cultural capital to influence more media. In the post-9/11 world, generic elements of superheroes began to resonate with audiences; superheroes fight against injustices and are able to confront the evils in today’s America. This has created a billion dollar, Oscar-award-winning industry of superhero movies, as well as allowed created comic book careers for artists and writers.

  • Blurring Boundaries, Crossing Divides: an Interview with Will Brooker
    . Volume 10, Issue 1 May 2013 Blurring boundaries, crossing divides: An interview with Will Brooker Bethan Jones and Lucy Bennett Abstract: In February 2013, media scholar Professor Will Brooker launched My So Called Secret Identity; a collaborative web-comic (with work from Sarah Zaidan and Suze Shore, amongst others) that offers a different depiction of women in comics than was largely evident in previous works. As writer of the comic, Brooker blurs and crosses the divides between fan, producer and academic. In this interview, we explore these issues, while also touching upon Brooker’s work in fan studies and the current state of the field, the somewhat limited representations of gender in comics, and how MSCSI is engaging successfully and innovatively with an online readership. Keywords: Comics, fandom, gender, social media, feminism. Introduction Media scholar Will Brooker has written widely on modern pop culture and fandom, although he is perhaps best known for his academic work on Batman, including 2003’s Batman Unmasked and the more recent Hunting The Dark Knight (2012). Recently, however he has also taken on Batgirl who, he writes, has always seemed a wasted character: ‘I wanted to like Barbara [Gordon]. I just wasn’t getting much to work with’ (http://mindlessones.com/2011/11/09/from-killer-moth-to-killing-joke-batgirl-a-life-in- pictures). In the same blog post on the Mindless Ones website Brooker undertook a visual analysis of the character’s history, detailing the tropes inherent in comics about superheroines and the apologetic, self-consciously klutzy tone in which Barbara Gordon’s voice is written: ‘There’s the constant reminder, from her own narration, that maybe Barbara simply isn’t good enough even to tackle low-level thugs.
