How has the superhero evolved over the course of the 20th and early 21st centuries? And how might the myths be changing? Why is it that the key superhero archetypes - Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, the X-Men - touch primal needs and experiences in everyone? Why has the superhero moved beyond the pages of comics into other media?

The dynamic duo behind the popular website LawAndTheMultiverse.com breaks down even the most advanced legal concepts for every self-proclaimed nerd. James Daily and Ryan Davidson—attorneys by day and comic enthusiasts all of the time—have clearly found their vocation, exploring the hypothetical legal ramifications of comic book tropes, characters, and powers down to the most deliciously trivial detail. The Law of Superheroes asks and answers crucial speculative questions about everything from constitutional law and criminal procedure to taxation, intellectual property, and torts, including: Could Superman sue if someone exposed his true identity as Clark Kent? Are members of the Legion of Doom vulnerable to prosecution under RICO? Do the heirs of a superhero who comes back from the dead get to keep their inherited property after their loved one is resurrected? Does it constitute “cruel and unusual punishment” to sentence an immortal like Apocalypse to life in prison without the possibility of parole? Engaging, accessible, and teaching readers about the law through fun hypotheticals, The Law of Superheroes is a must-have for legal experts, comic nerds, and anyone who will ever be called upon to practice law in the comic multiverse.

Book Synopsis Third Class Superhero by : Charles Yu
Download or read book Third Class Superhero written by Charles Yu and published by HMH. This book was released on 2006-09-05 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A compulsively readable collection” of short fiction from the author of How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe (Publishers Weekly). With deadpan humor and originality, Charles Yu spins Kafkaesque tales of modern identity and insecurity in this whip-smart debut. In 401(k), a couple living in the Luxury Car Commercial subdivision are disappointed when their exotic vacation turns into a Life Insurance/Asset Management pitch. The author struggles to write the definitive biography of his mother in Autobiographical Raw Material Unsuitable for the Mining of Fiction. And would-be superhero Moisture Man must come to terms with the darkness in his heart. Throughout the collection, Yu’s characters run up against the limitations of their artificial story lines while tackling the terrifying aspects of existence: mothers, jobs, spouses, and perhaps most terrifying of all, the need to express feelings. Heartbreaking and hilarious, Third Class Superhero marked the debut of an author who has been a PEN award finalist, and whose novel How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe was named one of Time’s best books of the year. “The post-collegiate braininess of many of Yu’s stories is like the music of the Talking Heads, making the familiar seem off-kilter. . . . Takes a Kafkaesque turn in its comic examination of the essence of identity.” —Kirkus Reviews

Book Synopsis Using Superheroes in Counseling and Play Therapy by : Lawrence C. Rubin, PhD, LMHC, RPT-S
Download or read book Using Superheroes in Counseling and Play Therapy written by Lawrence C. Rubin, PhD, LMHC, RPT-S and published by Springer Publishing Company. This book was released on 2006-12-20 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harness the Therapeutic Power of the Superhero! Application of the Star Wars Adoption Narrative Emotional Literacy and the Incredible Hulk Batman and Trauma What Would Superman Do--An Adlerian Approach? With an incisive historical foreword by John Shelton Lawrence and insight from contributors such as Michael Brody, Patty Scanlon, and Roger Kaufman, Lawrence Rubin takes us on a dynamic tour of the benefits of using these icons of popular culture and fantasy in counseling and play therapy. Not only can superheroes assist in clinical work with children, but Rubin demonstrates how they can facilitate growth and change with teen and adults. Early childhood memories of how we felt pretending to have the power to save the world or our families in the face of impending danger still resonate in our adult lives, making the use of superheroes attractive as well, to the creative counselor. In presenting case studies and wisdom gleaned from practicing therapists' experience, Lawrence Rubin shows how it is possible to uncover children's secret identities, assist treatment of adolescents with sexual behavior problems, and inspire the journey of individuation for gay and lesbian clients, all by paying attention to our intrinsic social need for superhero fantasy and play.
Download or read book Crypto wars written by Moez Patel and published by Moez Patel. This book was released on 2014 with total page 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
