This Week on Sequart
Sequart Research & Literacy Organization, which analyzes and promotes comics as a legitimate form of art, offers daily content on its website. Here's what's been going on there this week.
On Sunday, director Robert Emmons updated us on Sequart's documentary film Diagram for Delinquents: Fredric Wertham and the Evolution of Comic Books.
On Monday, I offered my "Hollow Spectacle (or How Super-Hero Comics Warped My Logic Circuit)," which followed up on my Justice League #1 review by using one scene from that comic to illustrate how acclimation to super-hero cliches can warp our understanding of logical narrative.
On Tuesday, Daniel N. Gullotta found correlations between Spider Jerusalem and Friedrich Nietzsche.
On Wednesday, Cody Walker continued his look at Mark Millar's Ultimates, examining how Ultimate Avengers 2 (a.k.a. Ultimate Avengers #7-12) went off the rails.
On Thursday, Tim Bavlnka looked at the history of Beta Ray Bill.
Today, I examined how Grant Morrison's Action Comics #1 succeeds where Justice League #1 fails.
Then later today, I offered a "Justice League International #1 Review."
I do hope you'll read them all, not only my own contributions to the site, because they're all well worth the time. Thank you!
