It argues that this connection was not integral to the character as he was originally created, but was imposed by later writers over time and mainly for cinematic adaptations. This thesis also tracks the history of how Christians and churches viewed Superman, as the film studios began to exploit marketing opportunities by comparing Superman and Jesus. This thesis uses the methodological framework of intertextuality to ground its treatment of the sources, but does not follow all of the assumptions of intertextual theorists. iii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness. Superman was created in 1938, but the character developed significantly from his earliest incarnations.

He will go to hell and back to find out. Batman: Damned is a visceral thrill ride and supernatural horror story told by two of comics’ greatest modern creators: Brian Azzarello and Lee Bermejo. The Joker has been murdered. His killer’s identity is a mystery. Batman is the World’s Greatest Detective.

Who better to set him straight than John Constantine? The problem is that as much as John loves a good mystery, he loves messing with people’s heads even more.

  • Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's Watchmen
    NACAE National Association of Comics Art Educators Reading Questions: Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons's Watchmen 1. What different themes does this book explore? Be as detailed and exhaustive as possible. 2. Pick a panel and analyze how Moore and Gibbons combine text and visuals to their utmost effect. 3. Pick a page and analyze its overall layout. How does the page as a whole make use of the comic book format to achieve meaning and impact. You might find it helpful to consider the larger themes of Watchmen. 4. Visual motifs are recurrent images that take on specific meanings relevant to a given work. What visual motifs appear throughout Watchmen and what meanings do they suggest? 5. How does the issue of crimefighting evolve over time in the world imagined in Watchmen? 6. Consider the names "Rorschach" and "Ozymandias." Why are these particularly appropriate names for these two characters? 7. Which character or characters do you sympathize with most? Why? 8. What does Chapter IV, "Watchmaker," reveal to us about Dr. Manhattan? How does he experience time? What are his interests? How would you summarize his view of existence? 9. How do Moore and Gibbons use the imagined history in Watchmen to comment on real events in 20th century America? 10. Look closely at Chapter V, "Fearful Symmetry." How does the idea of "symmetry" play out in this chapter in both form and content? 11. What are the worldviews of Dr. Manhattan, Rorschach, and Adrian Veidt? Where do these worldviews intersect? Where do they differ? 12. What does Watchmen suggest about masked crimefighters and their costumes? Which characters bring these ideas most clearly into focus? 13.

  • Growing up with Vertigo: British Writers, Dc, and the Maturation of American Comic Books
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by ScholarWorks @ UVM GROWING UP WITH VERTIGO: BRITISH WRITERS, DC, AND THE MATURATION OF AMERICAN COMIC BOOKS A Thesis Presented by Derek A. Salisbury to The Faculty of the Graduate College of The University of Vermont In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Specializing in History May, 2013 Accepted by the Faculty of the Graduate College, The University of Vermont, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts, specializing in History. Thesis Examination Committee: ______________________________________ Advisor Abigail McGowan, Ph.D ______________________________________ Melanie Gustafson, Ph.D ______________________________________ Chairperson Elizabeth Fenton, Ph.D ______________________________________ Dean, Graduate College Domenico Grasso, Ph.D March 22, 2013 Abstract At just under thirty years the serious academic study of American comic books is relatively young. Over the course of three decades most historians familiar with the medium have recognized that American comics, since becoming a mass-cultural product in 1939, have matured beyond their humble beginnings as a monthly publication for children. However, historians are not yet in agreement as to when the medium became mature. This thesis proposes that the medium’s maturity was cemented between 1985 and 2000, a much later point in time than existing texts postulate. The project involves the analysis of how an American mass medium, in this case the comic book, matured in the last two decades of the twentieth century. The goal is to show the interconnected relationships and factors that facilitated the maturation of the American sequential art, specifically a focus on a group of British writers working at DC Comics and Vertigo, an alternative imprint under the financial control of DC.

  • Challenge Model of Tnfα Turnover at Varying LPS and Drug Provocations
    Journal of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics (2019) 46:223–240 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10928-019-09622-x (0123456789().,-volV)(0123456789().,-volV) ORIGINAL PAPER Challenge model of TNFa turnover at varying LPS and drug provocations 1,2 3 2 1 4 Felix Held • Edmund Hoppe • Marija Cvijovic • Mats Jirstrand • Johan Gabrielsson Received: 6 December 2018 / Accepted: 8 February 2019 / Published online: 18 February 2019 Ó The Author(s) 2019 Abstract A mechanism-based biomarker model of TNFa-response, including different external provocations of LPS challenge and test compound intervention, was developed. The model contained system properties (such as kt,kout), challenge charac- teristics (such as ks,kLPS,Km, LPS,Smax,SC50) and test-compound-related parameters (Imax,IC50). The exposure to test compound was modelled by means of first-order input and Michaelis–Menten type of nonlinear elimination. Test com- -1 pound potency was estimated to 20 nM with a 70% partial reduction in TNFa-response at the highest dose of 30 mgÁkg . Future selection of drug candidates may focus the estimation on potency and efficacy by applying the selected structure consisting of TNFa system and LPS challenge characteristics. A related aim was to demonstrate how an exploratory (graphical) analysis may guide us to a tentative model structure, which enables us to better understand target biology. The analysis demonstrated how to tackle a biomarker with a baseline below the limit of detection. Repeated LPS-challenges may also reveal how the rate and extent of replenishment of TNFa pools occur. Lack of LPS exposure-time courses was solved by including a biophase model, with the underlying assumption that TNFa-response time courses, as such, contain kinetic information.

    ANXIETY & MMPI Abell, TL; Cutts, TF, and Cooper, T. Effect of cisapride therapy for severe dyspepsia on gastrointestinal symptoms and quality of life. Scand J Gastroenterol Suppl. 1993; 195: 60-3; Discussion 63-4. Abstract: Quality of life measures have received little attention in evaluation of therapy for dyspepsia. To examine the effect of cisapride on gastrointestinal symptoms and quality of life measures, we studied eight patients with chronic, severe dyspepsia, before and after therapy with cisapride (20 mg three times daily) for 12 months. Gastrointestinal (GI) Total Symptom Score (TSS), Overall Patient Assessment (OPA), and quality of life by both trait (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI)) and physical function (Sickness Impact Profile (SIP)) were measured at base line and at month 12 of cisapride therapy. Results showed significant improvement in TSS, OPA, and the MMPI Depression and Anxiety scales (all, p < 0.05). Improvement in the SIP physical dimension score approached significance (p = 0.065). We conclude that, in this group of patients with severe dyspepsia, both GI symptoms and quality of life measures improved with 12 months of cisapride therapy. These quality of life measures may prove useful in evaluating the efficacy of drug treatment for dyspepsia. Albrecht, NN; Talbert, FS; Albrecht, JW; Boudewyns, PA; Hyer, LA; Touze, J., and Lemmon CR.

Regardless of where you stand on the political spectrum, the question of what it means to be American is as much with us today as it was when we launched our fall 2016 season. Scrimmage: Football in American Art from the Civil War to the Present took us onto the con- tested field of American values as we examined the conflation of athleticism with nationalism and even military might, increasing health care issues of our players–and the notable depic- tions of the game by some of our country’s finest artists. At the same time, we offered our fifth Art of the Athlete exhibition, a thoughtful and creative opportunity for student athletes to share their identities, goals, and challenges and give back as mentors to our World of Work high school students and youth with disabili- ties.
