  • Wakanda Rising: Black Panther and Commodity Production in the Disney Universe
    Wakanda rising: Black Panther and commodity production in the Disney universe > Shenid Bhayroo Department of English, St Joseph’s University Philadelphia, Philadelphia, United States of America [email protected] ABSTRACT This article examines the superhero film Black Panther as a cultural commodity produced and distributed within an industrial capitalist system. The film has not only generated millions of dollars for the Disney Company, but has also stoked collective imaginations and energised the agency of audiences with its portrayal of the Afrofuturistic utopia, the kingdom of Wakanda, untouched by the ravages of colonialism and ruled by benevolent leaders endowed with superpowers. The film, is currently ranked first in terms of its lifetime gross revenues in the categories of comic book adaptation and superhero film and is the most successful of the Marvel Cinematic Universe characters’ films so far. Black Panther’s many firsts in the superhero genre reflect its non-financial feats: first to feature an almost entirely Black cast; first top-grossing film with an almost entirely Black cast; and biggest debut for an African American director (Disney 2018a). I demonstrate that while Black Panther showcases the work of African American filmmakers, storytellers and artists, and recognises Afrofuturism narratives, the film is also a commodity that sustains the system that produced it. Recognising and establishing the connections between commodity, cultural production and economics also offers a chance to identify opportunities for counter-hegemonies and challenges to the systemic erasure of Afro-histories. Keywords: Afrofuturism; Black Panther; commodity; Walt Disney Company; Marvel Comic Universe; political economy. Number 33, 2019 ISSN 2617-3255 page 01 of 20 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2617-3255/2018/n33a3 Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) Introduction On 16 February 2018, four months after its record-setting opening weekend in the United States, global box office receipts forBlack Panther reached $1.4 billion.

  • DC: the Fourth World a Jumpchain CYOA by Heavensanon There Came a Time When the Old Gods Died! the Brave Died with the Cunning!
    DC: The Fourth World A Jumpchain CYOA By HeavensAnon There came a time when the Old Gods died! The brave died with the cunning! The noble perished, locked in battle with the unleashed evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust! The final moment came with the fatal release of the indescribable power — which tore the home of the Old Gods asunder — split it in great halves — and filled the universe with the blinding death-flash of its destruction! In the end there were two giant molten bodies, spinning slow and barren — clean of all that had gone before — adrift in the fading sounds of cosmic thunder... Silence closed upon what had happened — a long, deep silence — wrapped in massive darkness... it was this way for an age... THEN—THERE WAS NEW LIGHT! So begins the saga of the Fourth World and the beings that inhabit it, advanced aliens who embody concepts of the worlds below them, the New Gods. Within this world exists two sister planets – the paradise of New Genesis, and the living hell of Apokolips. The lord of Apokolips, the tyrannical Darkseid, seeks the Anti-Life Equation which will give him complete dominance of all creation by snuffing out free will entirely. The forces of New Genesis, led by wise Highfather, continually skirmish with Darkseid’s forces and seek to stop him from completing his mad agenda. In the past, a truce was brokered between these two forces...in exchange of their own sons as hostages, Highfather and Darkseid bargained their own family to ensure a ceasefire between the two.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications THE BRAND AND THE BOLD: CARTOON NETWORK’S BATMAN: THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD AS COMICS-LICENSED CHILDREN’S TELEVISION A Thesis in Media Studies by Zachary Roman © 2011 Zachary Roman Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2011 The thesis of Zachary Roman was reviewed and approved* by the following: Matthew P. McAllister Professor of Communications Thesis Advisor Barbara Bird Associate Professor of Communications Jeanne Lynn Hall Associate Professor of Communications Marie Hardin Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT This thesis critiques the animated children's television program, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, debuting in 2008 on Cartoon Network, as a synergistic corporate commodity. In the program, Batman teams up with a guest hero who helps him vanquish the villain. The commodity and commercial functions of this premise is to introduce and promote secondary licensed brands -- the “guest heroes” and “guest villains” -- for synergistic profit based on the current popularity with the program’s anchor brand, Batman. Given Time Warner's ownership of multiple media outlets including Warner Bros. Animation, DC Comics and Cartoon Network, the program serves as a bridge text to usher young consumers of Time Warner content into becoming long-term consumers of more adult iterations of many of these same characters and licenses. The thesis contextualizes the program in the larger scholarly literature of the nature of media licensing, the history of commercialism on children's television, comic books and children's media licensing.

  • Black God Vol 6 Free
    FREE BLACK GOD VOL 6 PDF Dall-Young Lim,Sung-Woo Park | 192 pages | 02 Jul 2009 | Little, Brown & Company | 9780759530911 | English | New York, United States Valentina Nappi - IMDb Time ago, Darkseid of Apokolips captured and took control of the Black Racer by anchoring it to a sentient host, becoming since then the greatest weapon of the Black God vol 6 God. The Racer has had many hosts, one was the lost son of HighfatherMister Miraclebeing unwillingly bound to it until, for unknown reasons, he was released and replaced for another. When his master went to war against the Anti-Godhe was summoned to destroy Darkseid's enemy, but the latter stripped the Racer of Darkseid's grasp and merged it with a being of speed as the weapon to deliver a deathly blow against the Dark God, finally killing the despot of Apokolips. The Racer was quick to seize control of his new host's Black God vol 6, but his efforts were almost negated by the Flash's will to resist his corrupting ideals, instigating a conflict among the two. The Black Racer was separated from The Flash by the powers of the child of Superwoman and Alexander Luthorwho possessed the same ability to absorb the Black God vol 6 powers of others as his father. However, the Racer could not be absorbed, and instead was only separated from it's host. As it needed to claim a life before it could disappear, it struck Power Ring ; however Jessica Cruz was spared and instead the life of Volthoom was claimed, and his ring destroyed.
