The purpose of this research is to adapt the approaches used by prominent and influential writers and artists in the American superhero/action comic-book field to create an engaging Australian hero comic book. Further, the aim of this thesis is to bridge the gap between the lack of academic writing on the professional practice of the Australian comic industry. In order to achieve this, I explored and learned the methods these prominent and professional US writers and artists use. Compared to the American industry, the creating of comic books in Australia has rarely been documented, particularly in a formal capacity or from a contemporary perspective. The process I used was to navigate through the research and studio practice from the perspective of a solo artist with an interest to learn, and to develop into an artist with a firmer understanding of not only the medium being engaged, but the context in which the medium is being created. -

RESUMO A dissertação estudou as heroínas derivadas dos heróis masculinos, isto é, as versões femininas de heróis previamente estabelecidos segundo o imaginário cultural arcaico amplamente difundido pelos meios de comunicação. Estas heroínas foram denominadas de heroínas spin-off, termo que as caracteriza como um produto criado a partir de um molde pré-existente. Uma vez que elas estão presentes nos quadrinhos e, por consequência, são levadas a outras mídias, e também por terem aumentado em importância e em quantidade nos últimos anos, faz-se necessário compreendê-las. -

Spring 2021 An Analysis of the Evolution of Death Narratives in Superhero Comic Books by Megan Manning APPROVED: ______________________________________ Dr. Jennifer Marchant, Thesis Director Associate Professor, Department of English ______________________________________ Dr. Philip Phillips, Thesis Committee Chair Associate Dean, University Honors College Dedicated to all who create iii Acknowledgements Thank you to my parents, for fostering a love of reading and always encouraging me to march to the beat of my own drum, no matter what that may look like. Thank you to my best friends, Caitlin and Jada. Your encouragement and steadfast friendships are the stuff of legends. Thank you Dr. Saul, for assigning the term paper that started me down this road.

We have never met in person, but I am so, so grateful for the guidance you provided me with over this process. iv Abstract Popular culture has been around for centuries. It is representative of the ideas of a certain culture, at a certain time. As the society in which it is based evolves, so too does the culture it creates. Comic books were created in the early 20th century and have evolved into a multi-billion dollar industry, encompassing everything from serialized stories to blockbuster movies. -
