| Zusammenfassung: | "A complete guide to the history, form and contexts of the genre, Superhero Comics helps readers explore the most successful and familiar of comic book genres. In an accessible and easy-to-navigate format, the book reveals: The history of superhero comics--from mythic influences to 21st century evolutions Cultural contexts--from the formative politics of colonialism, eugenics, KKK vigilantism, and WWII fascism to the Cold War's transformative threat of mutually assured destruction to the on-going revolutions in African American and sexual representation Key texts--from the earliest pre-Comics-Code Superman and Batman to the latest post-Code Ms. Marvel and Black Panther Approaches to visual analysis--from layout norms to narrative structure to styles of abstraction."--Bloomsbury Publishing |
