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.

Women in Comics II'
Contents Welcome to Comics Forum 2 Programme 3 Abstracts 5 Profiles 13 Contributor Comics 19 Message from the Chair of 'Women in Comics II' Last year the first 'Women in Comics' Conference was held at The New Hall Collection, Murray Edwards College, University of Cambridge. It was a great success and as I was told 'everyone loves a sequel', I am delighted to be chairing 'Women in Comics II', here in Leeds Art Gallery on 18th November 2010. This 'Women in Comics II' conference, like its predecessor, celebrates the growing interest in women in comics, in women reading comics, in women writing about comics, in women making comics. Our aim at these conferences is to be supportive of creative and academic endeavours in all these fields. The atmosphere we engender is one of mutual interest and encouragement, to benefit the continued growth in this community. There is wonderful array of speakers lined up for today's conference. I am particularly delighted by the range of nationalities present on the panels, and the opportunity to bring together different generations of women creators. Thanks go to those who have travelled extensively to be here, including Maureen Burdock from New Mexico, and The Danish Penneveninder (Penfriends), Monica Hee Eun Jensen, Rikke Hollaender, Karen Hansen and Ina Kjoelby Korneliussen. It is also a great honour to welcome Suzy Varty to 'Women in Comics II'. Her publication 'Heroine', was the first all women's comic to be published in the UK in 1977, and is the front cover of our programme. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone on the 'Women in Comics' Committee, including Catriona MacLeod and Rikke Platz Cortsen, for expertly managing the call for papers, Nicola Streeten for her technical skills, Dr Laurence Grove for his advice and support, Dr Mel Gibson for her support and suggestions, and our volunteers Harriet Kennedy and Emily Rabone. -
A Case Study – Film Marketing and 'Judge Dredd'
TEACHERS’ NOTES This guide has been written for use at GCSE, A Level and GNVQ for Media and Communication Studies, Design and Technology and Business Studies. This guide is written in two parts: Part one, A Case Study – Film Marketing and ‘Judge Dredd’, encouraged the students to look at film marketing with specific reference to ‘Judge Dredd’. The information and tasks within this section aim to provide an insight into the planning and preparation of a film marketing campaign. Part two, Background to the Film ‘Judge Dredd’, provides the teacher and students with an insight into the origins of and themes dealt with in the character Judge Dredd. THE FILM Based on the lead character of the popular science-fiction comic ‘2000 AD’, the film ‘Judge Dredd’ is directed by Danny Cannon and stars Sylvester Stallone in the title role. The film will be released in the UK on 21 July 1995. SYNOPSIS In the Third Milennium the face of the earth had been virtually destroyed by uncontrollable disasters – earthquakes, fires and floods. Only a few cities remain, humanity itself turned as violent as the planet. Civilisation threatened to collapse. And then… a solution was found. The crumbling legal system was merged with the overburdened police, creating a powerful and efficient hybrid. These new guardians of society had the power to dispense both justice and punishment. They were judge, jury and executioner… and Dredd (Sylvester Stallone) is the most awesome of them all. PART ONE: A CASE STUDY – FILM MARKETING AND ‘JUDGE DREDD’ ‘Judge Dredd’, starring Sylvester Stallone is released in Britain on 21st July 1995. -
