Extra Issues – Superhero Subversions, ep 5: Miracleman
Manage episode 374303545 series 2724062
Zack, Charlotte, and special guest Dave Busting continue our first miniseries on Superhero Subversions with a discussion of the Alan Moore run of Miracleman (1982). We cover all the issues in the newly released Omnibus.
Topics discussed:
– Is Alan Moore critiquing superhero comics? Taking them very seriously? Mocking them? Or a combination or the three?
– How groundbreaking was it for Moore to treat superheroes in this way?
– Who let this Dave jabroni in the recording booth?
Upcoming episodes in our Superhero Subversion miniseries:
– Sleeper, vol. 1&2 2003
Upcoming episodes in our Molly Knox Ostertag miniseries:
– Her online work: Strong Female Protagonist, Darkest Night, How The Best Hunter In The Village Met Her Death, Lord of the Rings fan comics, Hourly Comics
– The Witch Boy Trilogy: The Witch Boy, The Midwinter Witch, and The Hidden Witch
– Girl from the Sea, Shattered Sea, Dungeon & Dragons: Dungeon Club Vol. 1
