Book Synopsis Superhero Synergies by : James N. Gilmore
Download or read book Superhero Synergies written by James N. Gilmore and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-03-06 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the age of digital media, superheroes are no longer confined to comic books and graphic novels. Their stories are now featured in films, video games, digital comics, television programs, and more. In a single year alone, films featuring Batman, Spider-Man, and the Avengers have appeared on the big screen. Popular media no longer exists in isolation, but converges into complex multidimensional entities. As a result, traditional ideas about the relationship between varying media have come under striking revision. Although this convergence is apparent in many genres, perhaps nowhere is it more persistent, more creative, or more varied than in the superhero genre. Superhero Synergies: Comic Book Characters Go Digital explores this developing relationship between superheroes and various forms of media, examining how the superhero genre, which was once limited primarily to a single medium, has been developed into so many more. Essays in this volume engage with several of the most iconic heroes—including Batman, Hulk, and Iron Man—through a variety of academic disciplines such as industry studies, gender studies, and aesthetic analysis to develop an expansive view of the genre’s potency. The contributors to this volume engage cinema, comics, video games, and even live stage shows to instill readers with new ways of looking at, thinking about, and experiencing some of contemporary media’s most popular texts. This unique approach to the examination of digital media and superhero studies provides new and valuable readings of well-known texts and practices. Intended for both academics and fans of the superhero genre, this anthology introduces the innovative and growing synergy between traditional comic books and digital media.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evildoers, Take Heed! Justice has a new face, and it wears a mask. Who are we talking about? Ordinary folk like Mike McMullen, a.k.a. The Amazing Whitebread, who become something entirely new and occasionally borderline pathological: Real-Life Superheroes (RLSHs). "Being a singing superheroine is a way for me to not only pay the bills, it also helps me give the baddies such a headache." --Danger Woman Complete with costumes and all the gadgetry they can afford from selling old copies of Action Comics on eBay, RLSHs dish out their own brand of justice--while criminals go about their business and law enforcers roll their eyes. "Me and Shadowhare were walking past a bank and we stopped to make a phone call. As soon as we started walking away, the police came up and said, 'Do you know why we stopped you? Because you guys are wearing masks standing in front of a bank.'" --Mr. Xtreme McMullen spans the country, coach class, seeking to develop his own RLSH identity and address such weighty issues as: Sidekicks: Faithful wards or CPS bait? Bad Guys: Where the hell are they all hiding? Super-tights: How snug is too snug? So don your mask, suck in your gut, and join us. "Hey, you're with a superhero. . .what could go wrong?" --Geist, the Emerald Cowboy Michael McMullen, a.k.a. The Amazing Whitebread, was born in Wichita Falls, Texas. He earned an undergraduate degree in history and philosophy, and subsequently took the only employment option open to someone with the resultant lack of marketable skills: government service. He's worked as an intelligence analyst for the U.S. Department of Justice for just over a decade and currently lives in Arlington, Texas, with his wife, Lauren, and their children, Grant and Gracie. His hobbies include aspiring to get some woodworking done, thinking about learning a musical instrument, and trying to get interested in any computer game other than Text Twist. He has had short pieces published in various science fiction/fantasy magazines and currently holds the record for "Worst-Kept Secret Identity."
Download or read book The New Mutants written by Ramzi Fawaz and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2017 The Association for the Studies of the Present Book Prize Finalist Mention, 2017 Lora Romero First Book Award Presented by the American Studies Association Winner of the 2012 CLAGS Fellowship Award for Best First Book Project in LGBT Studies How fantasy meets reality as popular culture evolves and ignites postwar gender, sexual, and race revolutions. In 1964, noted literary critic Leslie Fiedler described American youth as “new mutants,” social rebels severing their attachments to American culture to remake themselves in their own image. 1960s comic book creators, anticipating Fiedler, began to morph American superheroes from icons of nationalism and white masculinity into actual mutant outcasts, defined by their genetic difference from ordinary humanity. These powerful misfits and “freaks” soon came to embody the social and political aspirations of America’s most marginalized groups, including women, racial and sexual minorities, and the working classes. In The New Mutants, Ramzi Fawaz draws upon queer theory to tell the story of these monstrous fantasy figures and how they grapple with radical politics from Civil Rights and The New Left to Women’s and Gay Liberation Movements. Through a series of comic book case studies—including The Justice League of America, The Fantastic Four, The X-Men, and The New Mutants—alongside late 20th century fan writing, cultural criticism, and political documents, Fawaz reveals how the American superhero modeled new forms of social belonging that counterculture youth would embrace in the 1960s and after. The New Mutants provides the first full-length study to consider the relationship between comic book fantasy and radical politics in the modern United States.
Download or read book Crypto wars written by Moez Patel and published by Moez Patel. This book was released on with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the near future all of humanity is caught up in the digital world. Every aspect of human life has been digitized and integrated in the worldwide online network. The people of the world trusted the brand new technology as they changed their cash for digital coins and gave their private personal information freely to social engagement websites. The world was slowly becoming slaves to their digital personals and this new technology. As the young pioneers of and inventors of this new and frightening technology sought funding and formed companies, the sleeping giants of the wealthy and elite of the world began to take notice. Quietly the rich bought out every budding coder, developer, and creator. They did this under the guise of shell corporations, education funds, and subcontracting. Once the people driving the technology innovation of tomorrow were under their control they began to shape the world’s technology for themselves. The rich and elite of the world had humanity under its control but it was difficult and tiresome work. That was why the Deepweb Network was created. They used all of the coders and developers they had bought to create a technological and social control system that would do the hard work for them with basic input from the few richest individuals on the planet. The fledgling Network started slowly. They formed small cells with individual tasks and strategies. They targeted political and social infrastructures. They used massive ad campaigns to mask the movement of funds and assets. Once the Network had grown strong enough, they launched a coordinated attack on all fronts – physically, economically, and digitally. Before anyone realized it, the Deepweb Network now had controlling shares in all corporations, governments, stock exchanges, and most digital websites. They had drained all bank accounts of money and transferred it to themselves. Almost overnight the digital age of humanity had been subverted and corrupted. The Deepweb Network controlled the flow of money and employment. Poverty rates drastically increased globally. Those unable to afford the patronage of the people within the Network were kept poor by the digital strangulation of the economy. The Network controlled all education through privatization. Prices for a good education were heavily inflated so only the elite’s children could afford to learn the skills needed to work in the world they had created. No one was able to stand up to the Network. They were either bought, wrapped up in political red tape, or all of their money was gone and they did not have the means to attack
