  • Myth, Metatext, Continuity and Cataclysm in Dc Comics’ Crisis on Infinite Earths
    WORLDS WILL LIVE, WORLDS WILL DIE: MYTH, METATEXT, CONTINUITY AND CATACLYSM IN DC COMICS’ CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS Adam C. Murdough A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2006 Committee: Angela Nelson, Advisor Marilyn Motz Jeremy Wallach ii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Advisor In 1985-86, DC Comics launched an extensive campaign to revamp and revise its most important superhero characters for a new era. In many cases, this involved streamlining, retouching, or completely overhauling the characters’ fictional back-stories, while similarly renovating the shared fictional context in which their adventures take place, “the DC Universe.” To accomplish this act of revisionist history, DC resorted to a text-based performative gesture, Crisis on Infinite Earths. This thesis analyzes the impact of this singular text and the phenomena it inspired on the comic-book industry and the DC Comics fan community. The first chapter explains the nature and importance of the convention of “continuity” (i.e., intertextual diegetic storytelling, unfolding progressively over time) in superhero comics, identifying superhero fans’ attachment to continuity as a source of reading pleasure and cultural expressivity as the key factor informing the creation of the Crisis on Infinite Earths text. The second chapter consists of an eschatological reading of the text itself, in which it is argued that Crisis on Infinite Earths combines self-reflexive metafiction with the ideologically inflected symbolic language of apocalypse myth to provide DC Comics fans with a textual "rite of transition," to win their acceptance for DC’s mid-1980s project of self- rehistoricization and renewal.

  • By Jennifer M. Fogel a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
    A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

This book takes up the challenge, off ering a re/assemblage of what is, can be and perhaps should be known about teenage pregnancy and parenti ng in the context of the twenty-fi rst century.

    Screen Rant Share On Facebook Comments (45) Follow Us Like 658K Follow @screenrant 80.4K followers SR EXCLUSIVES MOVIE NEWS TV NEWS REVIEWS VIDEOS LISTS + TRAILERS PODCASTS TOP MOVIES Up Next Supergirl Season 2 Confirmed For The CW By Molly Freeman 10 hours ago 45 Comments 839shares 45 Developed by The CW’s DC Comics TV universe architect, Greg Berlanti, along with Ali Adlier (No Ordinary Family, Chuck), Supergirl was first thought to land at the network alongside previously established superhero dramas Arrow and The Flash. However, CBS picked up Supergirl and debuted the first season, which followed Kara Danvers a.k.a. Kara Zor-El (Melissa Benoist) as she began to take on the mantle of Supegirl and avoid the shadow of her cousin, Superman. However, recently the future CBS’s DC Comics series seemed to be in question. Although CBS CEO Les Moonves seemed to indicate Supergirl would receive a second season order, the deadline for an official announcement began to draw closer without any confirmation from the network. Now, it seems Supergirl will receive a second season, but not at CBS. The Wrap is reporting Supergirl has been renewed for season 2, but it will move to The CW – which CBS co-owns with Warner Bros. Television. The report is in line with previous rumors of Supergirl moving to The CW amidst talks of cutting the superhero drama’s budget after a costly freshman season. In addition to the network change, the production of Supergirl will move from Los Angeles, California to Vancouver, Canada where fellow CW shows Arrow, The Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow film – all of which were renewed earlier this year by The CW.
