Art: Overall, pretty solid. Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Volume 2 the shift of the JLA themes, looked dark but well done. I also enjoyed the violence as this event feels like a major zombie outbreak. I also liked the Rogue stuff a lot, both sad, and well done. Flash family was solid too. What didn't work: Wonder Woman story is okay at best. To easy to guess what will happen. Also, some of the JLA story was boring. Overall, a pretty solid contributing chapter to a fun event. Volume 1 was better but this is a 3 out of 5. Dec 30, Bradley rated it it was amazing Shelves: fantasygraphic-novelsshelfsci-fi. I have to admit, I'm really liking the storyline now. This kinda kicks the whole Marvel Zombies in the ass. There's some real stories going on and it really warms the cockles. It's Flash all the way, baby. Feb 28, Sesana rated it liked it Shelves: comicssuperhumans. I'll get JSA out of the way: didn't care for it. This is probably because I had little to no background in these characters and the team in general, at least in part. On the other hand, I really enjoyed the Flash storyline, even though I'm on shaky ground there Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Volume 2 it comes to backstory. Maybe it's because the Rogues, at least Captain Cold and Weather Wizard, are getting interesting to me, and the writing did a good job of juxtaposing Flash and Captain Cold. Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Volume 2 Wonder Woman story was, of course, my favorite, even though the storyline was much more fragmented. This was probably out of necessity: Wonder Woman ended up playing a fairly prominent role in the main Blackest Night story, so Rucka ended up writing her scenes scattered throughout instead of one storyline, like the Flash and JSA books. But I really enjoy his take on Wonder Woman, so I still really liked it. As a whole, Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Volume 2 collection rates 3. Apr 16, Stephen rated it really liked it Shelves: graphic-novels-and-comicszombies. I will repeat some of what I have said before. Blackest Night is possibly the best crossover event in comics at the very least it is the best I have read so far. So, this book does continues the more personal, Earth-bound perspective of the epic space war going on as part of the Blackest Night. Like the previous volume, it gets very personal and deeply emotional. This volume includes some of the best battles in the non-space centered collections in Blackest Night. There are lots of crazy surprises. In short, this is brilliant comic writing. May 13, Shannon Appelcline rated it liked it Shelves: comicscomics-dc. The JSA story offers nice reminders of the team's origins and the Jesse Quick plotline is even quite touching, but beyond that there's the usual zombie fighting and a one-time deus ex machina [6. Better than its predecessor, but still mediocre. Jan 21, Nico rated it liked it Shelves: green- lanternscomics-and-graphic-novels. I liked some parts, I was bored through other parts. Quite a few parts. I admit I had to do some searching Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Volume 2 some new faces for me and for some I had forgotten the details of. In general I just didn't get into this volume like I have through other collections from this event. There was very little adrenaline, I didn't have my emotions ripped out in the same way This probably had something to with the fact that I haven't read much of Flash on his own and that I'm rather ambivalent about Meh. This probably had something to with the fact that I haven't read much of Flash on his own and that I'm Blackest Night: Black Lantern Corps Volume 2 ambivalent about Wonder Woman as a character in general sorry Sarah so the foundation and love for the characters wasn't cemented in the same way it was when I read the Bats or Teen Titans story arcs. Also I didn't give a single shit about The Rogues. They could've left out that entire plot line and I probably would've been happier. I did enjoy reading more of Flash though. I like the mix of humour with the deep care for their family and friends they all exhibit. I've been meaning to give Barry and Wally the time they deserve and pick up some of their individual runs to delve deeper into those arcs, so this definitely pushes me forward towards that. Overall though, this was a bit of a miss. Jan 11, Nicole Shelby rated it it was amazing Shelves: comics. Tangential tales It was kind of fun having some old-school comic art via Scott Kolins.

Endogenous Presidentialism James A. Robinson and Ragnar Torvik NBER Working Paper No. 14603 December 2008 JEL No. H1 ABSTRACT We develop a model to understand the incidence of presidential and parliamentary institutions. Our analysis is predicated on two ideas: first, that minorities are relatively powerful in a parliamentary system compared to a presidential system, and second, that presidents have more power with respect to their own coalition than prime ministers do. These assumptions imply that while presidentialism has separation of powers, it does not necessarily have more checks and balances than parliamentarism.

    Lioi, Anthony. "Icons of Survival: Metahumanism as Planetary Defense." Nerd Ecology: Defending the Earth with Unpopular Culture. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2016. 169–196. Environmental Cultures. Bloomsbury Collections. Web. 25 Sep. 2021. <http:// dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781474219730.ch-007>. Downloaded from Bloomsbury Collections, www.bloomsburycollections.com, 25 September 2021, 20:32 UTC. Copyright © Anthony Lioi 2016. You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 6 Icons of Survival: Metahumanism as Planetary Defense In which I argue that superhero comics, the most maligned of nerd genres, theorize the transformation of ethics and politics necessary to the project of planetary defense. The figure of the “metahuman,” the human with superpowers and purpose, embodies the transfigured nerd whose defects—intellect, swarm-behavior, abnormality, flux, and love of machines—become virtues of survival in the twenty-first century. The conflict among capitalism, fascism, and communism, which drove the Cold War and its immediate aftermath, also drove the Golden and Silver Ages of Comics. In the era of planetary emergency, these forces reconfigure themselves as different versions of world-destruction. The metahuman also signifies going “beyond” these economic and political systems into orders that preserve democracy without destroying the biosphere. Therefore, the styles of metahuman figuration represent an appeal to tradition and a technique of transformation. I call these strategies the iconic style and metamorphic style. The iconic style, more typical of DC Comics, makes the hero an icon of virtue, and metahuman powers manifest as visible signs: the “S” of Superman, the tiara and golden lasso of Wonder Woman.

It argues that this connection was not integral to the character as he was originally created, but was imposed by later writers over time and mainly for cinematic adaptations. This thesis also tracks the history of how Christians and churches viewed Superman, as the film studios began to exploit marketing opportunities by comparing Superman and Jesus. This thesis uses the methodological framework of intertextuality to ground its treatment of the sources, but does not follow all of the assumptions of intertextual theorists. iii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness. Superman was created in 1938, but the character developed significantly from his earliest incarnations.

Overcrowded, overbuilt, and overshadowed by a continuous air of menace, this gothic nightmare is a breeding ground for the depraved, the indifferent, and the criminally insane. Its also the object of one mans obsession. Witness to the brutal murder of his parents, Bruce Wayne has dedicated his life to protecting this city, taking a form to inspire hope in the innocent...and fear in the guilty. He is the masked vigilante known as the Batman. Now the battlefield has changed. Leveled by a massive earthquake that left thousands dead and millions more wounded, Gotham City has been transformed into a lawless wilderness -- a No Mans Land -- where the survivors are turning against one another, and where the citys protectors are torn by a crisis that may consume them all. I first read Batman: No Mans Land in 2000. As a Batgirl/Barbara Gordon fan, I was beyond thrilled when I picked it up and discovered it began as narrated by Barbara, in her role as Oracle. NML held a greater depth and respect for her character than I had ever come across, and I was immediately hooked.

    Misfit (DC Comics) Misfit's writer Gail Simone later revealed that she had wanted to explore Misfit's real origin, but was unable to do so before DC Comics rebooted their comics and started the New 52 series. Simone explained a in a short interview that Misfit was actually born on Gemworld and had been a princess of the Ruby House. She was sent to Earth to hide after her real family was murdered. Although her memory was erased, she retained her power to 'bounce' (teleport) as well as her fighting skills. Creation. Misfit (Charlotte "Charlie" Gage-Radcliffe) is a fictional character in the DC Comics Universe. She first appeared in Birds of Prey #96 (September 2006) as a wannabe Batgirl, before taking on her own identity as Misfit. Misfit debuts as a shadowy figure, wearing a homemade variation of Barbara Gordon's classic Batgirl costume, accurate enough to be mistaken for the original article at night.

  • Why Wonder Woman Matters
    Why Wonder Woman Matters When I was a kid, being a hero seemed like the easiest thing in the world to be- A Blue Beetle quote from the DC Comics publication The OMAC Project. Introduction The superhero is one of modern American culture’s most popular and pervasive myths. Though the primary medium, the comic book, is often derided as juvenile or material fit for illiterates the superhero narrative maintains a persistent presence in popular culture through films, television, posters and other mediums. There is a great power in the myth of the superhero. The question “Why does Wonder Woman matter?” could be answered simply. Wonder Woman matters because she is a member of this pantheon of modern American gods. Wonder Woman, along with her cohorts Batman and Superman represent societal ideals and provide colorful reminders of how powerful these ideals can be.1 This answer is compelling, but it ignores Wonder Woman’s often turbulent publication history. In contrast with titles starring Batman or Superman, Wonder Woman comic books have often sold poorly. Further, Wonder Woman does not have quite the presence that Batman and Superman both share in popular culture.2 Any other character under similar circumstances—poor sales, lack of direction and near constant revisions—would have been killed off or quietly faded into the background. Yet, Wonder Woman continues to persist as an important figure both within her comic universe and in our popular consciousness. “Why does Wonder Woman matter?” To answer this question an understanding of the superhero and their primary medium, the comic book, is required, Wonder Woman is a comic book character, and her existence in the popular consciousness largely depends on how she is presented within the conventions of the comic book superhero narrative.

  • What Superman Teaches Us About the American Dream and Changing Values Within the United States
    TRUTH, JUSTICE, AND THE AMERICAN WAY: WHAT SUPERMAN TEACHES US ABOUT THE AMERICAN DREAM AND CHANGING VALUES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES Lauren N. Karp AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Lauren N. Karp for the degree of Master of Arts in English presented on June 4, 2009 . Title: Truth, Justice, and the American Way: What Superman Teaches Us about the American Dream and Changing Values within the United States Abstract approved: ____________________________________________________________________ Evan Gottlieb This thesis is a study of the changes in the cultural definition of the American Dream. I have chosen to use Superman comics, from 1938 to the present day, as litmus tests for how we have societally interpreted our ideas of “success” and the “American Way.” This work is primarily a study in culture and social changes, using close reading of comic books to supply evidence. I argue that we can find three distinct periods where the definition of the American Dream has changed significantly—and the identity of Superman with it. I also hypothesize that we are entering an era with an entirely new definition of the American Dream, and thus Superman must similarly change to meet this new definition.
