In contrast with Banner, who found his Hulk powers to be a burden, Cho is a confident character who revels in his newfound abilities. He subsequently starred in his own miniseries, Heroic Age: Prince of Power. Amadeus Cho takes part in the Excello soap company's "young genius" contest put on by Pythagoras Dupree, winning easily. Dupree, who claims to be the world's sixth smartest man, tries to kill Cho to preserve his ranking. Cho's parents are killed, but Amadeus survives and goes on the run with a Vespa scooter and a coyote pup. When the Hulk saves him from some of Dupree's men, Cho considers the Hulk a friend and strictly views him as heroic and reactive to the aggression of others. Amadeus Cho has stated to Hercules, just before he first encountered Athena at her house, that he is Korean Americanand mentions to Athena later at an Olympian dinner when questioned about his namesake that, due to his parents' love for Mozart 's music and Methodist beliefs, they named him this. The character is next seen during the events of the crossover event, World War Hulkwhere he first comes across a de-powered Jen Walters. With the assistance of Namora they attempt and fail to stop the Hulk. The Incredible Hulk series is then retitled The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 Hercules from on, and the character's adventures as the sidekick of Hercules are detailed. Due to them helping the Hulk they go on the run, but are chased by Hercules' half-brother Ares. The character then participates in a number of adventures, including helping Hercules and other Earthly gods defeat the pantheon of Skrull gods during the Secret Invasion storyline. During this, Nightmare finds out Cho's greatest fears at the time is finding out that all the bad events in his life are his fault. It is revealed that Cho reminds Hercules of Hylas, a young companion who he lost during the Argonauts' voyage. Following this storyline the pair battle Amazonsled by Princess Artume, who need him to The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 an Atlantean tablet that will lead to the Omphalos. Amadeus is attracted to the Amazon warrior Delphyne Gorgonbut upon her becoming queen The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 is obliged to end any flirtation, to his sadness. Together with Athena, Amadeus and Hercules next confront the new head of the Olympians, Hera[8] and travel to the Underworld to rescue Zeus from Hades. There it is revealed that Cho's sister is still alive and missing. Upon learning this, and realizing that Athena had to have known this all along, he tearfully leaves Hercules, determined to find out what happened to his sister. Venturing to the town of The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1, Utah, he encounters former FBI Agent Sexton, who had contacted him shortly after The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 death of his parents, and does battle with Pythagoras Dupree, who claims to be the sixth-smartest man in the world. Cho realizes the incredible potential of his brain to serve as a 'hypercomputer', and figures out that Sexton is in fact Athena The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 disguise. Amadeus finally confronts Dupree in person, and learns that Dupree was not aware of Amadeus' sister being missing, meaning she is still missing. Amadeus also learns that his destiny is to be the new hero of the modern era of reason, and to stop the "primordial darkness" this is revealed to the reader to be the return of Amatsu-Mikaboshi. Dupree then challenges Amadeus to a specialized version of Russian roulette, which Amadeus refuses to do, leaving Dupree to simply shoot himself. After grieving about the situation, he then discovers the truth about Hera's mysterious "Continuum" project, which makes Athena and Amadeus both say in unison, "We need to get Hercules. Parallel to those stories, in the aftermath of the " Secret Invasion " storyline, the character is used by writer Dan Slott in his run on the Mighty Avengers series. Athena reveals to Cho that he is her choice to be the next Prince of Power, the "hero of the mind", as opposed to the hero of strength that Hercules represented. Furthermore, there cannot be more than one Prince of Power at any one time; this means that Hercules will soon meet his death. Cho vows to prevent this. Hercules successfully defeats Typhon, but Athena reveals to Hercules that he must now die and seemingly allows him to perish by destroying the Continuum, causing the Universe Hercules is in to be destroyed. She claims he must die so Cho can take over the group, and that he rid the world of monsters so that intelligence could take over. A funeral service is held at the Parthenon in Athens, where a tearful Amadeus demands Athena show herself and pay her respects. They share memories of their adventures with Hercules until Athena finally arrives. She reveals to Amadeus that he is the new leader of the Olympus Group. They are pitted against Skaar and Phobos The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 Artemis and Apollo. Nyx, goddess of night also arrives and chooses Nightmare as her mortal champion. Poseidon gives Namor his trident which greatly increases his power, and helps him in his fight against Skaar. Cho and Banner manage to get rid of Nightmare and convince Phobos not to fight them. The combatants turn against the gods and Phobos uses his power over fear to manipulate Hades The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 opening a portal to the Underworld. Amadeus travels into the land of the dead to look for Hercules and meets Persephone, wife of Hades. She tells him that Hades would not have allowed him in if Hercules' soul had been there. He tells her that he is not her champion, he is Hercules' champion, and that he will be using all the powers given to him to find Hercules. Athena is shown meeting with the Council of Godheads to discuss the new Heroic Ageand who should be selected to confront the coming darkness of Mikaboshi. Cho, now in charge of the Olympus Group, with Hebe working as his assistant, spends half a trillion dollars in order to have Bruce Banner build a device capable of scanning the multiverse to find Hercules. However, it is determined that this will take over 1,, years to work. After a battle with the GriffinCho is visited by Vali Halflingthe leader of the Pantheonwho proposes an alliance in order to gather the necessary ingredients to become as powerful as the Skyfathers: Hebe's ambrosiathe golden apples of Idunnthe spells of The Book of Thothand the amrita cup of Dhanavantari. Cho steals the list from Vali and goes to Asgard himself, only to find that Vali had already stolen the apples, framing him for the theft. Cho convinces Thor that he is innocent, and Thor then joins his quest to both stop Halfling and resurrect Hercules. With some additional assistance from Delphyne, who is now his girlfriend, Cho succeeds in thwarting Halfling and using the elixir to assume true godhood. However, he realizes that he is inadequate to wield this power permanently, and he instead transfers it to the returned Hercules, as Hercules warns that the Chaos King is coming. Amadeus Cho is among the characters present when Hercules warns the heroes of the coming of Amatsu- Mikaboshi. Amadeus Cho urges humanity to escape to an unpopulated and sealed-off continuum of The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 he knows. During the battle, they are attacked by samurai sharks. The others get angry because he was manipulating them and they turn down his offer. As part of the Marvel NOW! He convinces them that he is their god and to help save Shanna's life. Amadeus Cho told Shanna what the Neanderthal natives had explained to him. The machine powering the damping field was also powering a prison, one holding an ancient hostile alien presence. Realizing that Wolverine would be releasing this creature, Shanna raced to stop him. She arrived in time with Amadeus Cho right behind her and was able to stop Wolverine. Suddenly, Hulk appeared before them, however, and quickly entered a scuffle with Wolverine in which the machine was damaged anyway. Following an eight-month time skip as seen in the Time Runs Out storyline, Cho is seen as a member of the Illuminati. He is captured by a joint S. Eight months after the Secret Wars storyline, following an incident where the original Hulk absorbed a lethal amount of radiation, Cho used special nanites to remove the Hulk from Bruce Banner and place it into his body, allowing him to become his own version of Hulk. With the help of The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol. 1: Cho Time: Vol. 1 sister Maddy, he starts hunting down dangerous monsters that are loose on Earth, but is criticized for his irresponsible approach. During this time, he encounters She-Hulk and the second The Totally Awesome Hulk Vol.

    Why No Wonder Woman?

    Why No Wonder Woman? A REPORT ON THE HISTORY OF WONDER WOMAN AND A CALL TO ACTION!! Created for Wonder Woman Fans Everywhere Introduction by Jacki Zehner with Report Written by Laura Moore April 15th, 2013 Wonder Woman - p. 2 April 15th, 2013 AN INTRODUCTION AND FRAMING “The destiny of the world is determined less by battles that are lost and won than by the stories it loves and believes in” – Harold Goddard. I believe in the story of Wonder Woman. I always have. Not the literal baby being made from clay story, but the metaphorical one. I believe in a story where a woman is the hero and not the victim. I believe in a story where a woman is strong and not weak. Where a woman can fall in love with a man, but she doesnʼt need a man. Where a woman can stand on her own two feet. And above all else, I believe in a story where a woman has superpowers that she uses to help others, and yes, I believe that a woman can help save the world. “Wonder Woman was created as a distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to ʻa world torn by the hatred of men.ʼ”1 While the story of Wonder Woman began back in 1941, I did not discover her until much later, and my introduction didnʼt come at the hands of comic books. Instead, when I was a little girl I used to watch the television show starring Lynda Carter, and the animated television series, Super Friends.

BAKER Submitted to: Advisor: Christopher Gonzalez Committee: Tabetha Adkins Donna Dunbar-Odom Mike Odom Head of Department: M. Hunter Hayes Dean of the College: Salvatore Attardo Interim Dean of Graduate Studies: Mary Beth Sampson iii Copyright © 2017 Michael G. Baker iv ABSTRACT COSTUME CULTURE: VISUAL RHETORIC, ICONOGRAPHY, AND TOKENISM IN COMIC BOOKS Michael G. Baker, PhD Texas A&M University-Commerce, 2017 Advisor: Christopher Gonzalez, PhD Superhero comic books provide a unique perspective on marginalized characters not only as objects of literary study, but also as opportunities for rhetorical analysis. There are representations of race, gender, sexuality, and identity in the costuming of superheroes that impact how the audience perceives the characters. Because of the association between iconography and identity, the superhero costume becomes linked with the superhero persona (for example the Superman “S” logo is a stand-in for the character). However, when iconography is affected by issues of tokenism, the rhetorical message associated with the symbol becomes more difficult to decode. Since comic books are sales-oriented and have a plethora of tie-in merchandise, the iconography in these symbols has commodified implications for those who choose to interact with them. When consumers costume themselves with the visual rhetoric associated with comic superheroes, the wearers engage in a rhetorical discussion where they perpetuate whatever message the audience places on that image.

Newman A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Studies) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Richard Janko, Chair Professor Sara L. Ahbel-Rappe Professor Gary M. Beckman Associate Professor Benjamin W. Fortson Professor Ruth S. Scodel Bind us in time, O Seasons clear, and awe. O minstrel galleons of Carib fire, Bequeath us to no earthly shore until Is answered in the vortex of our grave The seal’s wide spindrift gaze toward paradise. (from Hart Crane’s Voyages, II) For Mom and Dad ii Acknowledgments I fear that what follows this preface will appear quite like one of the disorderly monsters it investigates. But should you find anything in this work compelling on account of its being lucid, know that I am not responsible. Not long ago, you see, I was brought up on charges of obscurantisme, although the only “terroristic” aspects of it were self- directed—“Vous avez mal compris; vous êtes idiot.”1 But I’ve been rehabilitated, or perhaps, like Aphrodite in Iliad 5 (if you buy my reading), habilitated for the first time, to the joys of clearer prose. My committee is responsible for this, especially my chair Richard Janko and he who first intervened, Benjamin Fortson. I thank them. If something in here should appear refined, again this is likely owing to the good taste of my committee. And if something should appear peculiarly sensitive, empathic even, then it was the humanity of my committee that enabled, or at least amplified, this, too.

The Ancient Greeks had one of the earliest known democracies, a rich literary tradition, and unique art and architecture, which we see copied all over the world and still used symbolically. Greek philosophy, medicine, science, and technology were all ahead of their time, and a familiarity with them is essential for understanding the world today—if for no other reason ABOUT THE OLYMPIANS BOOKS than because so much of our own culture, and even language, is based on Ancient Greek words and ideas.
