This is evident in a range of issues, from negotiations on Iran's nuclear program to efforts to bring peace to Darfur. Yet China's role as a veto-holding member of the Council has been left unexamined. How does it formulate its positions? What interests does it seek to protect? How can the international community encourage China to be a contributor, and not a spoiler?

But why has he maintained his iconic status for nearly 80 years? And how can he still be an American icon when the country itself has undergone so much change? Superman: Persistence of an American Icon examines the many iterations of the character in comic books, comic strips, radio series, movie serials, feature films, television shows, animation, toys, and collectibles over the past eight decades. Demonstrating how Superman's iconic popularity cannot be attributed to any single creator or text, comics expert Ian Gordon embarks on a deeper consideration of cultural mythmaking as a collective and dynamic process. He also outlines the often contentious relationships between the various parties who have contributed to the Superman mythos, including corporate executives, comics writers, artists, nostalgic commentators, and collectors. Armed with an encyclopedic knowledge of Superman's appearances in comics and other media, Gordon also digs into comics archives to reveal the prominent role that fans have played in remembering, interpreting, and reimagining Superman's iconography. Gordon considers how comics, film, and TV producers have taken advantage of fan engagement and nostalgia when selling Superman products. Investigating a character who is equally an icon of American culture, fan culture, and consumer culture, Superman thus offers a provocative analysis of mythmaking in the modern era. 410 0$aComics culture 410 0$aComics culture. 606 $aSuperman (Comic strip) 606 $aSuperheroes$xSocial aspects 606 $aHeroes in mass media 606 $aMyth in mass media 606 $aPopular culture$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aComic books, strips, etc$zUnited States$xHistory and criticism 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / American / General$2bisacsh 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Men's Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aCOMICS & GRAPHIC NOVELS / Nonfiction$2bisacsh 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Comics & Graphic Novels$2bisacsh 606 $aPERFORMING ARTS / Film & Video / History & Criticism$2bisacsh 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Popular Culture$2bisacsh 615 0$aSuperman (Comic strip) 615 0$aSuperheroes$xSocial aspects. 615 0 $aHeroes in mass media. 615 0$aMyth in mass media. 615 0$aPopular culture$xHistory. 615 0$aComic books, strips, etc.$xHistory and criticism. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / American / General. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Men's Studies. 615 7$aCOMICS & GRAPHIC NOVELS / Nonfiction. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Comics & Graphic Novels. 615 7$aPERFORMING ARTS / Film & Video / History & Criticism. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / Popular Culture. 676 $a741.5/973 686 $aSOC022000$aPER004030$aLIT017000$aCGN007000$aSOC018000$aLIT004020$2bisacsh 700 $aGordon$b Ian$f1954-,$01348722 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910163919203321 996 $aSuperman$93086352 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$125.00$u03/02/2019$5Eng
