The Ages of the X-Men: Essays on the Children of the Atom in Changing TimesThe X-Men comic book franchise is one of the most popular of all time and one of the most intriguing for critical analysis. With storylines that often contain overt social messages within its “mutant metaphor,” X-Men is often credited with having more depth than the average superhero property. In this collection, each essay examines a specific era of the X-Men franchise in relationship to contemporary social concerns. The essays are arranged chronologically, from an analysis of popular science at the time of the first X-Men comic book in 1963 to an interpretation of a storyline in light of rhetoric of President Obama’s first presidential campaign. Topics ranging from Communism to celebrity culture to school violence are addressed by scholars who provide new insights into one of America’s most significant popular culture products. $14.99 2000 AD: Prog 1741JUDGE DREDD // THE FURTHER DASTERDLY DEEDS OF PJ MAYBE Mega-City One, 2133 AD.
