  • “Why So Serious?” Comics, Film and Politics, Or the Comic Book Film As the Answer to the Question of Identity and Narrative in a Post-9/11 World
    ABSTRACT “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD by Kyle Andrew Moody This thesis analyzes a trend in a subgenre of motion pictures that are designed to not only entertain, but also provide a message for the modern world after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The analysis provides a critical look at three different films as artifacts of post-9/11 culture, showing how the integration of certain elements made them allegorical works regarding the status of the United States in the aftermath of the attacks. Jean Baudrillard‟s postmodern theory of simulation and simulacra was utilized to provide a context for the films that tap into themes reflecting post-9/11 reality. The results were analyzed by critically examining the source material, with a cultural criticism emerging regarding the progression of this subgenre of motion pictures as meaningful work. “WHY SO SERIOUS?” COMICS, FILM AND POLITICS, OR THE COMIC BOOK FILM AS THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION OF IDENTITY AND NARRATIVE IN A POST-9/11 WORLD A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Communications Mass Communications Area by Kyle Andrew Moody Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2009 Advisor ___________________ Dr. Bruce Drushel Reader ___________________ Dr. Ronald Scott Reader ___________________ Dr. David Sholle TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ..........................................................................................................................

    UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS DEPARTAMENTO DE ESTUDOS ANGLÍSTICOS “9 into 7” Considerations on ‘V for Vendetta’: Book and Film. Luís Silveiro MESTRADO EM ESTUDOS INGLESES E AMERICANOS (Estudos Norte-Americanos: Cinema e Literatura) 2010 UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE LETRAS DEPARTAMENTO DE ESTUDOS ANGLÍSTICOS “9 into 7” Considerations on ‘V for Vendetta’: Book and Film. Luís Silveiro Dissertação orientada por Doutora Teresa Cid MESTRADO EM ESTUDOS INGLESES E AMERICANOS (Estudos Norte-Americanos: Cinema e Literatura) 2010 Abstract The current work seeks to contrast the book version of Alan Moore and David Lloyd‟s V for Vendetta (1981-1988) with its cinematic counterpart produced by the Wachowski brothers and directed by James McTeigue (2005). This dissertation looks at these two forms of the same enunciation and attempts to analise them both as cultural artifacts that belong to a specific time and place and as pseudo-political manifestos which extemporize to form a plethora of alternative actions and reactions. Whilst the former was written/drawn during the Thatcher years, the film adaptation has claimed the work as a herald for an alternative viewpoint thus pitting the original intent of the book with the sociological events of post 9/11 United States. Taking the original text as a basis for contrast, I have relied also on Professor James Keller‟s work V for Vendetta as Cultural Pastiche with which to enunciate what I consider to be lacunae in the film interpretation and to understand the reasons for the alterations undertaken from the book to the screen version. An attempt has also been made to correlate Alan Moore‟s original influences into the medium of a film made with a completely different political and cultural agenda.

  • Alan Moore V for Vendetta
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Humanities Commons Early draft of essay eventually published in Sexual Ideology in the Works of Alan Moore Comer 1 “Body Politics: Unearthing an Embodied Ethics in V for Vendetta” Todd A. Comer In light of the oft-made allegation that superheroes are in many respects carbon copies of the fascist world that they were consciously or unconsciously intended to oppose, V for Vendetta may be Alan Moore’s most direct commentary on the superheroic body and its desires. Intimations of fascism, of course, are everywhere in Moore’s work. The German soldier who shatters Alice’s mirror in Lost Girls, William Gull’s bird-like transcendence in From Hell, Superman’s repression of the too-earthy Swamp Thing in “The Jungle Line,” Moriarty’s cavorite- fueled journey toward heaven (and death) in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen—all speak to Moore’s critique of the superheroic tendency to marginalize the world and others. Moore and David Lloyd’s graphic novel is the most direct commentary on the superhero body if only because the body of the hero and villain are obnoxiously present, even as they strangely absent themselves. The novel appears to ground agency to an embodied totalitarian world in terms of (dis)embodiment. Agency is, of course, an issue of the body and its representation, but Moore and Lloyd get it wrong, at least on one overt level, by misunderstanding the ultimate goal of fascism and reproducing a notion of agency that merely reproduces on another level the (ontological) state that it presumes to counter.

  • Q33384 William Blake and Speculative Fiction Assignment 2
    Commentary on the Adaptation of Blake’s America: A Prophecy into a Series of Murals Inspired by Northern Irish Political Art and Popular Art Within the Graphic Novels of Alan Moore and Bryan Talbot. Joel Power 1 Overview Blake’s America: A Prophecy is a response to great social and political upheaval present at the end of the eighteenth century, and what Bindman calls a ‘revolutionary energy’2 in America and France. My mural adaptations focus on plates 8-10, a dialogue between this ‘revolutionary energy’, personified by 1 My images as they would appear in situ. 2 David Bindman, in William Blake, America a Prophecy, in The Complete Illuminated Books, ed. by David Bindman (London: Thames and Hudson, 2001), p. 153. INNERVATE Leading student work in English studies, Volume 8 (2015-2016), pp. 233-241 Joel Power 234 Orc, and Urizen in the guise of Albion’s Angel, before the poem turns into Blake’s ‘mythical version’3 of the American War of Independence. The genre of murals, as with those in Northern Ireland, create narratives ‘rich in evocative imagery’ presenting ‘aspirations, hopes, fears and terror’,4 telling of stories and legends between the past, present and future. The rebellious nature of the medium makes it an apt vehicle through which to adapt Blake’s work. Enriched with graphic imagery and intertextuality from Moore’s Promethea, Watchmen, V for Vendetta, Swamp Thing and Talbot’s The Adventures of Luther Arkwright, the three murals form part of a larger scale urban project which would reveal itself on city walls over a period of time, creating drama and intrigue.

  • From Pink to Red. V for Vendetta : Trans and Queer Resistance, Straightened Out
    From pink to red. V for Vendetta : trans and queer resistance, straightened out. Camille Akmut December 9, 2019 Abstract A gender-bending, queer, books and roses loving hero restored. The original work is introduced, successive erasures highlighted. 1 Introduction : queer heroes end up strangled Created (over) forty years ago, V for Vendetta has known a strange fate. Through various new editions, one film adaptation, and following pop culture re-appropriations, gradually most if not all traces of queer and transgender identities have been erased from Alan Moore's first hero. But, readers of "Vol. 1 of X" of the 1988 color original couldn't have been mistaken : they did not need much sense for imagination to come to other, very different conclusions... The cover let them know as much : "V FOR VENDETTA" appeared in boldest of pink. Black leather straps, make-up, a woman's wig, an expansive zebra carpet and even a chandelier (!). (Not even Sebastian's dresser was likely as camp, and a young Boy George's room must have looked not too different { when they had one.) It warned, in pink too : "for mature readers only". The introduction from 1988 (1981 reproduction?) came in defense of homosexuals and criticized the stigmatization of AIDS in Thatcher's England. In the 1990's edition, that introduction was replaced with a more main- stream and acceptable story about an episode of Lloyd at a bar, and references to the barman's wife. The original foreword was pushed back... The 2005 Hollywood movie starred glamour girl Nathalie Portman and returned 100 million$.

When the publishers cancelled Warrior in 1985 (with two completed issues unpublished due to the cancellation), several companies attempted to convince Moore and Lloyd to let them publish and complete the story. In 1988 DC Comics published a ten-issue series that reprinted the Warrior stories in color, then continued the series to completion. The first new material appeared in issue #7, which included the unpublished episodes that would have appeared in Warrior #27 and #28. Tony Weare drew one chapter ("Vincent") and contributed additional art to two others ("Valerie" and "The Vacation"); Steve Whitaker and Siobhan Dodds worked as colourists on the entire series. The series, including Moore's "Behind the Painted !
