The premise Elseworlds Justice League: Vol 1 off strong. Kal-El has been raised as Bruce Wayne, his parents die and Bruce isn't aware of his powers until a break-in occurs at Wayne Manor and Alfred is threatened. Once he finds out his heritage, he creates the Batman suit and starts Elseworlds Justice League: Vol 1 criminals faces off! Batma Superman: Speeding Bullets by J. Batman was way too brutal for my taste. Lex Luthor comes to town and falls into the vat the Joker was meant to. Up to that point, the story was pretty good, but then for some reason, DeMatteis decides to incorporate the entire Superman cast and backstory and things start feeling really contrived. And after one conversation from Lois, Bruce becomes Superman instead. The shift to nonsense in the book was quite noticeable and once the book is skidding out of control, DeMatteis hits the gas instead of pumping the brakes. Still, I really enjoy the Elseworlds concept and think they are all worth a read. Longtime Superman artist Eduardo Barreto provides the art. Superman's ship crashed in medieval Europe instead of a Kansas farm. Your standard middle ages tale of a hero rising up to dethrone the local tyrant. The Superman mythos lends itself to the Elseworlds concept so well. All that needs to happen is that Baby Kal's spaceship crash lands in a different time or place. Now Superman is all alone except for mutants and giant mutant rats and the the like. Eventually he comes across a community of the remaining meta-humans and they rebuild society. However, some of the former heroes aren't happy with how things are going and venture off on their own setting up Elseworlds Justice League: Vol 1 final conflict. I like how the ending bookmarked nicely with Superman's origins. Gil Kane's art has never looked better than with Kevin Nowlan's inks. Atticus Kent joins the Union army and discovers his powers when he goes into battle. It's an interesting premise on how it would have shortened the war and changed America. The end was very dumb where he becomes the Lone Ranger with a silver horse he made from his spaceship. Superman Inc. Kal-El crash lands the next field over and is raised as an orphan. What will he grow up to be without the Kent's love and guidance? In this case, it's a self-centered sports star who becomes his own brand like Michael Jordan.

    Katalog Zur Ausstellung "60 Jahre Marvel

    Liebe Kulturfreund*innen, bereits seit Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs befasst sich das Amerikahaus München mit US- amerikanischer Kultur. Als US-amerikanische Behörde war es zunächst für seine Bibliothek und seinen Lesesaal bekannt. Doch schon bald wurde das Programm des Amerikahauses durch Konzerte, Filmvorführungen und Vorträge ergänzt. Im Jahr 1957 zog das Amerika- haus in sein heutiges charakteristisches Gebäude ein und ist dort, nach einer vierjährigen Generalsanierung, seit letztem Jahr wieder zu finden. 2014 gründete sich die Stiftung Bay- erisches Amerikahaus, deren Träger der Freistaat Bayern ist. Heute bietet das Amerikahaus der Münchner Gesellschaft und über die Stadt- und Landesgrenzen hinaus ein vielfältiges Programm zu Themen rund um die transatlantischen Beziehungen – die Vereinigten Staaten, Kanada und Lateinamerika- und dem Schwerpunkt Demokratie an. Unsere einladenden Aus- stellungräume geben uns die Möglichkeit, Werke herausragender Künstler*innen zu zeigen. Mit dem Comicfestival München verbindet das Amerikahaus eine langjährige Partnerschaft. Wir freuen uns sehr, dass wir mit der Ausstellung „60 Jahre Marvel Comics Universe“ bereits die fünfte Ausstellung im Rahmen des Comicfestivals bei uns im Haus zeigen können. In der Vergangenheit haben wir mit unseren Ausstellungen einzelne Comickünstler, wie Tom Bunk, Robert Crumb oder Denis Kitchen gewürdigt. Vor zwei Jahren freute sich unser Publikum über die Ausstellung „80 Jahre Batman“. Dieses Jahr schließen wir mit einem weiteren Jubiläum an und feiern das 60-jährige Bestehen des Marvel-Verlags. Im Mainstream sind die Marvel- Helden durch die in den letzten Jahren immer beliebter gewordenen Blockbuster bekannt geworden, doch Spider-Man & Co. gab es schon lange davor. Das Comic-Heft „Fantastic Four #1“ gab vor 60 Jahren den Startschuss des legendären Marvel-Universums.

    Crisis of Infinite Intertexts! Continuity As Adaptation in the Superman Multimedia Franchise

    Crisis of Infinite Intertexts! Continuity as Adaptation in the Superman Multimedia Franchise Jack Peterson Teiwes ORCID identifier 0000-0001-8956-1602 Doctor of Philosophy November 2015 School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne Submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the PhD degree Produced on archival quality paper Abstract Since first appearing as a comic book character over three quarters of a century ago, Superman was not only the first superhero, spawning an entire genre of imitators, but also quickly became one of the most widely disseminated multi-media entertainment franchises. This achieved a degree of intergenerational cultural dissemination that far surpasses his comic book fandom. Yet despite an unprecedented degree of adaptation into other media from radio, newspaper strips, film serials, animation, feature films, video games and television, Superman’s ongoing comic books have remained in unbroken publication, developing a long and complex history of narrative renewal and reinvention. This thesis investigates the multifaceted intertextuality between the comic book portrayals of Superman and its many adaptations over the years, including how such retellings in other media have a generally stronger cultural impact, which exerts in turn an adaptive influence upon these continuing comics’ internalised narrative continuity. I shall argue that Superman comics, as a case study for the wider phenomenon in the superhero genre, demonstrate via their frequent revisions and relaunches of continuity, a process of deeply palimpsestuous self-adaptation. The Introduction positions my research methodology in relation to intertextual theory, with an emphasis on providing terminological clarity, while Chapter 1 expands into a literature review on pertinent key scholarship on adaptation studies and the comics studies field specifically.

    Reading the Uncanny Xmen: Gender, Race, and The

    READING THE UNCANNY X­MEN: GENDER, RACE, AND THE MUTANT METAPHOR IN A POPULAR NARRATIVE By Joseph James Darowski A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY American Studies 2011 ABSTRACT READING THE UNCANNY X­MEN: GENDER RACE AND THE MUTANT METAPHOR IN A POPULAR NARRATIVE By Joseph James Darowski The first superhero comic book was published in 1938 and since that time the genre has become a staple of American popular culture. While superhero stories have been adapted into every popular storytelling medium, the genre is most closely associated with the comic book industry. This dissertation examines the first 500 issues of The Uncanny X­Men, one of the most popular series to be published in America. In particular, the portrayals of race and gender will be analyzed by performing a close reading of the stories published as well as a numerical analysis of the ethnicity, nationality, and gender of the heroes, villains, and guest stars who appear in the series. The X‐Men comic book franchise has a reputation among fans, creators, and scholars as one of the most diverse and progressive superhero comic book titles. The core conceit of the series, that there are people called mutants who are born with powers and abilities that separate them from normal humans, has allowed the themes of societal prejudice and hatred to be explored in a metaphorical fashion, though looking closely at the race and gender of the characters in the series reveals a different reality than the common perception of the series.
