View Slide Show Zanbabe Trust: 3122 Mythology Supervisor Answer: Google Profile » The definition of the term immortality in comics may be debatable. For instance, some immortals Recommend Supervisor » seem to have died at least once but often reappear momentarily in a new revitalized incarnation; especially common amongst mythological characters (gods, goddesses, angels, demons, etc.). Deities, in fact, tend to be consistently immortal and are completely resistant to death and deterioration (e.g., Marvel Comics' Thor, Greek Gods, etc.). These beings are both functionally immortal and invulnerable and merely give the appearance of being slain for a temporary time before rematerializing. Such immortals undergo an apparent dissolution rather than death, a corporeal rather than essential destruction, while others do retain their physical form albeit in a diminished capacity (e.g., Sandman's Orpheus existing as a talking head, Image's Immortal Man's decapitation). These entities can be considered "true immortals," as they were created in that state and have very little chance of changing. Still, even some of these true immortals do seem to be dependent on belief or worship to remain extant (e.g., the gods and goddesses in Vertigo's Sandman --the existence of Vertigo's Fables may operate similarly, to some extent), yet even these deities may not be definitively dead should faith in their existence be renewed (e.g., Kid Eternity's Gods of Olympus). Other entities are conditionally immortal, in the sense that they are immune to aging and all disease, but have an existence dependent on some exterior component and are not invulnerable. Robots have Can you answer these? the potential to exist indefinitely if able to avoid damage or transfer their consciousness into new Why did Walt Whitman Begin Writing? shells. Similarly, vampires are immortal if they avoid known vulnerabilities, such as sunlight. Those In: Authors, Poets, and Playwrights using magic means to extend their longevity also possess this conditional immortality (e.g., DC What is the name of the song in the end credits of Comics' Circe, Mordru, etc.), an especially tenuous segment of them only being immortal through the Girls episode 1 season 2? In: Action & Adventure TV Shows possession of mystical objects or talismans (e.g., DC Comics' Super-Chief, Ra's Al Ghul, etc.). Those How do the atomic radius and metallic properties achieving their sort of immortality through technological means may also fall into that latter category of sodium compare to the radius and metallic (e.g., Perry Rhodan, DC Comics' Resurrection Man).

When making cheese what are whey? In: Cheeses It may also be possible to argue that all comic characters are immortal as they never seem to stay Top Contributors This Week dead for long, leading to the popular claim: "No one stays dead except Bucky, Jason Todd and Uncle HelperElf Ben."

Trust Points: 8162 Member Since: 6/08 Notes: The ability of beings to resurrect themselves with no intervention can be seen as a variation of Prioktan918 immortality as the death they experience is temporary and resolved autonomously (e.g., Solomon Trust Points: 892 Member Since: 1/12 Grundy), whereas any dead being may be resurrected by another but upon death will remain permanently dead in absence of further external intervention (e.g., Oliver Queen): given time, Bringingthewood immortals will return to life while most will suffer the ordinary mortal fate. Trust Points: 1737 Member Since: 3/09 Reincarnation differs from resurrection in that the sense of identity tends to by lost between incarnations, whereas resurrections typically involve the same identity being retained to some extent (perhaps not so with zombies) and the host bodies tend to be susceptible to age and disease (e.g., Valiant's Immortal Enemy) meaning they most likely cannot be described as immortal. This list disregards the status and quality of life possessed by the individual, meaning that it includes in the "immortal" category both those that are still technically alive and those that cannot be or were never considered living, whether as the undead (e.g., DC's Frankenstein, Dracula), maintaining a mechanical existence (e.g., Robotman), or being composed of a form incompatible with our definition of "life" (e.g., Wildfire, Metamorpho). While not alive, these entities can be expected to ecist for an extremely long time, possess a clear identity, and are not subject to age ot disease. Ghosts and spirits have only been included when they both maintain a physical presence in the material world, possess a clear identity, and consistently interact with the living (e.g., The Gentleman Ghost, Deadman). Other deceased beings may continue in an eternal existence of sorts in an afterlife, but forego any further participation or representation in the physical world. Immortals that appear to currently be deceased are listed as (presumed dead). Near immortals (e.g., Martian Manhunter), virtual immortals (e.g., Grandmaster, The Kherubim), and questionable immortals (e.g., Superman, Wolverine) have their arguable status indicated by a (?) symbol.

  • Reclaiming the Streets: Black Urban Insurgency and Antisocial Security
    Reclaiming the streets Black urban insurgency and antisocial security in twenty-fi rst-century Philadelphia Jeff Maskovsky Abstract: Th is article focuses on the emergence of a new pattern of black urban insurgency emerging in major US metropolitan areas such as Philadelphia. I lo- cate this pattern in the context of a new securitization regime that I call “antiso- cial security.” Th is regime works by establishing a decentered system of high-tech forms of surveillance and monitory techniques. I highlight the dialectic between the extension of antisocial security apparatuses and techniques into new political and social domains on the one hand and the adoption of these same techniques by those contesting racialized exclusions from urban public space on the other. I end the article with a discussion of how we might adapt the commons concept to consider the centrality of race and racism to this new securitization regime. Keywords: commoning, inner city, race, securitization, United States, urban politics In Philadelphia, on 10 April 2013, dozens of Af- broadcast sensationalized reports about “crazed rican American youth converged in what mu- teens,” “mob violence,” and “youth rioting.” nicipal authorities described as a “fl ash mob” at In 2011, Philadelphia mayor Michael Nutter the heart of the city’s central business district.

A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

  • The Adventure of the Shrinking Public Domain
    ROSENBLATT_FINAL (DO NOT DELETE) 2/12/2015 1:10 PM THE ADVENTURE OF THE SHRINKING PUBLIC DOMAIN ELIZABETH L. ROSENBLATT* Several scholars have explored the boundaries of intellectual property protection for literary characters. Using as a case study the history of intellectual property treatment of Arthur Conan Doyle’s fictional character Sherlock Holmes, this Article builds on that scholarship, with special attention to characters that appear in multiple works over time, and to the influences of formal and informal law on the entry of literary characters into the public domain. While copyright protects works of authorship only for a limited time, copyright holders have sought to slow the entry of characters into the public domain, relying on trademark law, risk aversion, uncertainty aversion, legal ambiguity, and other formal and informal mechanisms to control the use of such characters long after copyright protection has arguably expired. This raises questions regarding the true boundaries of the public domain and the effects of non-copyright influences in restricting cultural expression. This Article addresses these questions and suggests an examination and reinterpretation of current copyright and trademark doctrine to protect the public domain from formal and informal encroachment. * Associate Professor and Director, Center for Intellectual Property Law, Whittier Law School. The author is Legal Chair of the Organization for Transformative Works, a lifelong Sherlock Holmes enthusiast, and a pro bono consultant on behalf of Leslie Klinger in litigation discussed in this Article. I would like to thank Leslie Klinger, Jonathan Kirsch, Hayley Hughes, Hon. Andrew Peck, and Albert and Julia Rosenblatt for their contributions to the historical research contained in this Article.
