Abstract:
Abstract The history of heroism in Egyptian culture has mostly been perceived as a male attribute, centering on the figure of the male hero, and generally excluding figures of female heroines. In this article, I explore the representation of one type of female heroism, the rising phenomenon of the superheroine. In contrast to popular definitions of heroism connected to the superhero genre wherein heroism is perceived as an extra-terrestrial superpower, recent depictions of superheroines in Egyptian popular culture focus on representing the mundane aspect of the lives of these characters, leadi

Abstract:
Comics are an important form of Indian popular culture. Like other forms of popular culture which have engaged with superheroes, male superheroes have dominated the comic book industry in India. Costumes enable the social construction of these characters in comics, determine their characteristic traits and emphasize their gendered roles. Female characters have had to struggle against multiple patriarchal social processes which are integral to the global comics’ culture. Costumes play a critical role in how these characters engage with the overall narrative of the comics. The article analyses t

Resumen. La inserción de la mujer en el mercado laboral es un claro ejemplo de logro histórico ya que, gracias a la lucha de muchas mujeres, a día de hoy, es una realidad que la población femenina ha logrado su inserción en el mercado laboral. Sin embargo, aun queda mucho camino por recorrer, prueba de ello es que, en la actualidad aún existe un cierto rechazo a considerar que la mujer está cualificada para ser trabajadora, dando lugar a la segregación ocupacional y vertical que provoca como resultado la brecha salarial, circunstancia que refleja como sufre una discriminación salarial frente a

Abstract:
AbstractAmar Chitra Katha (Immortal Picture Stories) is India's leading comic book series, featuring hundreds of mythological titles about the Hindu gods. Founder Anant Pai initially eliminated all miracles, believing them to be unscientific interpolations. But while producing Tales of Durga (no. 176, 1978), he declared that the comic must be an “authentic” recreation of the Devī Māhātmya scripture, and that all miracles in the classical Sanskrit text must be faithfully rendered in the comic. This article examines the discourse of authenticity that surrounds the production of Tales of Durga in

The thesis examines how users of the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) negotiate feminism in their reviews of four superheroine films – Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, Birds of Prey: The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn, and Wonder Woman 1984. By combining critical discourse analysis with methods of corpus linguists, this corpus-based study of over 18,000 reviews analyses the frequency of the topic of feminism in the reviews, words and topics associated with it and the way the reviewers reflect broader mediated discourse over the four films, and the role of IMDb as a space for these rev

Abstract:
This chapter provides an interrogation of the relevant notions of postfeminist masquerade with regards to Marvel superheroines, a widely-occurring narrative phenomenon that is also inflected by contemporary postfeminist practices and a mode of representation that has noticeably proliferated in these texts. Building on existing scholarship, the chapter examines the notion of the superheroine undercover, a tradition that reaches back to foundational popular feminist texts such as Charlie’s Angels (ABC, 1976–1981) and questions the implications of this tradition in the context of contemporary superheroic feminine identity. Taking account of the constructed qualities of femininity, contemporary superheroines are often introduced in disguise with the film’s narrative positioning them as ordinary civilian women before divulging their heroism. This narrative turn occupies a specific ideological role relating to postfeminist culture. This concept is explored using The Avengers’ (2012) Natasha Romanoff and expanded on in a discussion of identity crisis in the superheroine Captain Marvel.

This is a story of the motivating powers of purpose driving Lili Ben-Ami to turn an unconceivable personal tragedy into a social change. It is a story of a feminist who, after 20 years of noteworthy activism, chose to change direction and pave a new, innovative path devoted to the prevention of domestic violence. Through her pioneering social-change initiatives, Lili teaches us that the power of making a difference resides in each of us – it requires no special superpowers (though Lili did get some help from an actual Justice League Superheroine). Lili's story offers you an opportunity to join a historical revolution and an invitation to start your own.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter sets established the ensuing discussion with a brief account of current popular debates within both superhero comic books and film: the supposed embrace of diversity and inclusion of non-normative subjectivities. Marvel’s teen Muslim superheroine Kamala Khan (Ms. Marvel) is offered as a short but insightful case study to outline some of the crucial issues presented in the rest of the book. The chapter also highlights the twinned historical trajectories of comics and film and their entanglement with American (gender) politics throughout their existence, while also providing an overview of postfeminist culture and the implications of adaptation in these films. A chapter breakdown is provided, as well as an overview of the book’s key arguments.

Abstract:
This chapter initially discusses the literary origins of Jessica Jones, the superheroine introduced in Alias by Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos. In the comic book series, Jones is a blue-collar hero clearly tied to hard-boiled detective fiction: a genre about and for a working class audience. This chapter then presents the way Bendis and Gaydos use Jones’ identity as a private investigator to subvert traditional superhero stories that are written with little concerns for class. In addition, Alias uses Jones’ identity as a woman to subvert the male bias of both traditional superhero stories and hard-boiled detective fiction.The resultant mix creates a meandering path for Jones: a woman’s narrative of “quiet desperation” that is largely lost in purposeful arc of its Netflix adaptation, Jessica Jones.
