Myth, Metatext, Continuity and Cataclysm in Dc Comics’ Crisis on Infinite Earths
WORLDS WILL LIVE, WORLDS WILL DIE: MYTH, METATEXT, CONTINUITY AND CATACLYSM IN DC COMICS’ CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS Adam C. Murdough A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2006 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Marilyn Motz Jeremy Wallach ii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor In 1985-86, DC Comics launched an extensive campaign to revamp and revise its most important superhero characters for a new era. In many cases, this involved streamlining, retouching, or completely overhauling the characters’ fictional back-stories, while similarly renovating the shared fictional context in which their adventures take place, “the DC Universe.” To accomplish this act of revisionist history, DC resorted to a text-based performative gesture, Crisis on Infinite Earths. This thesis analyzes the impact of this singular text and the phenomena it inspired on the comic-book industry and the DC Comics fan community. The first chapter explains the nature and importance of the convention of “continuity” (i.e., intertextual diegetic storytelling, unfolding progressively over time) in superhero comics, identifying superhero fans’ attachment to continuity as a source of reading pleasure and cultural expressivity as the key factor informing the creation of the Crisis on Infinite Earths text. The second chapter consists of an eschatological reading of the text itself, in which it is argued that Crisis on Infinite Earths combines self-reflexive metafiction with the ideologically inflected symbolic language of apocalypse myth to provide DC Comics fans with a textual "rite of transition," to win their acceptance for DC’s mid-1980s project of self- rehistoricization and renewal. -

Gal Gadot Wears the Legendary Tiffany &
Gal Gadot Wears the Legendary Tiffany & Co. Elsa Peretti® Bone Cuff in her New Film, Wonder Woman 1984, in Theaters and Streaming on HBO Max December 25 | 1 Official Trailer, Wonder Woman 1984 Wonder Woman 1984 premieres Christmas Day and features Gal Gadot reprising her iconic role as Wonder Woman and alter ego Diana Prince. In the Patty Jenkins directed film, Gadot, as Prince, is wardrobed in the legendary Tiffany & Co. Elsa Peretti® Bone cuff in 18k yellow gold, a nod to Wonder Woman’s indestructible cuffs and a tribute to Prince’s real self—a hero. “Elsa Peretti® Bone cuff is still, to this day, the most stunning piece of jewelry that I’ve ever seen. I first became aware of this work of beauty when I received a small one as a gift from an ex’s mother. I loved it immediately, but even still, many years later when I glimpsed an editorial shot of someone wearing the long Bone cuff online, I didn’t realize it was related, and obsessively searched for what it was. When I found out it was Peretti’s extended cuff, it sealed the collection as a masterwork of adornment. My love of the cuffs became magically relevant when I directed the Wonder Woman films, as they marry perfectly with the character. As a result, we featured them as the one piece of jewelry that Diana Prince would choose in Wonder Woman 1984. It looks absolutely stunning on her, and I can’t wait for the world to see it featured in that way.” — Patty Jenkins The groundbreaking Elsa Peretti® design was introduced 50 years ago and perfectly contours to the wrist, showcasing the ergonomic sensuality that informs all of Peretti’s Tiffany & Co. -
“The Piece Was Made to Demonstrate the Strength
ATCOOPER SUMMER/FALL 2020 THE COOPER UNION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE AND ART “The piece was made to demonstrate the strength and determination that the Class of ’24 has to create artwork and collaborate across the distance that currently separates us. Instead of highlighting an individual, like a typical college commitment post, the goal of this work was to show a united trio of artists, each as important as the other in accomplishing unified goals. For me, this piece is a clear declaration of my intent to not only overcome but also to harness the unique challenges that we now face and create engaging work.” —Clyde Nichols, Class of 2024, School of Art PERSISTENCE & RESILIENCE The image on the front cover came to our attention via Instagram in May, when Clyde Nichols, an incoming first-year student in the School of Art, first posted it as his “I’m going to Cooper Union!” announcement. He provided the text in a subsequent email explaining the intent of the work. The other two students, Anahita Sukhija and Innua Anna Maria (seated) are also incoming School of Art first-years. Clyde’s work exemplifies the Cooper spirit of surpassing limitations by bringing determined, creative individuals together, whether physically or metaphorically, to build something bigger than themselves. This issue of At Cooper aims to capture that same spirit as it has played out during one of the most extraordinary periods in the 161-year history of The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art. In March, of course, the entire campus shut down—a Cooper first—due to COVID-19. -
Lycra, Legs, and Legitimacy: Performances of Feminine Power in Twentieth Century American Popular Culture
LYCRA, LEGS, AND LEGITIMACY: PERFORMANCES OF FEMININE POWER IN TWENTIETH CENTURY AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE Quincy Thomas A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Francisco Cabanillas, Graduate Faculty Representative Bradford Clark Lesa Lockford © 2018 Quincy Thomas All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor As a child, when I consumed fictional narratives that centered on strong female characters, all I noticed was the enviable power that they exhibited. From my point of view, every performance by a powerful character like Wonder Woman, Daisy Duke, or Princess Leia, served to highlight her drive, ability, and intellect in a wholly uncomplicated way. What I did not notice then was the often-problematic performances of female power that accompanied those narratives. As a performance studies and theatre scholar, with a decades’ old love of all things popular culture, I began to ponder the troubling question: Why are there so many popular narratives focused on female characters who are, on a surface level, portrayed as bastions of strength, that fall woefully short of being true representations of empowerment when subjected to close analysis? In an endeavor to answer this question, in this dissertation I examine what I contend are some of the paradoxical performances of female heroism, womanhood, and feminine aggression from the 1960s to the 1990s. To facilitate this investigation, I engage in close readings of several key aesthetic and cultural texts from these decades. While the Wonder Woman comic book universe serves as the centerpiece of this study, I also consider troublesome performances and representations of female power in the television shows Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the film Grease, the stage musical Les Misérables, and the video game Tomb Raider. -
