About this product

Product Information

Supergods is your opportunity to join one of the great figures of modern comics on a mind-bending journey into the world of the superheroes. Beginning with Schuster and Seigel s adolescent creation of Superman in 1938, Grant Morrison charts the history of the superheroes to their modern, multiplex incarnations. From Batman to the Flash to Dr Manhattan, Supergods looks at every key character, but also takes in unique national strips, and the strange spin-offs and forgotten curios that litter the outer reaches of this weird universe. In doing so, Morrison explores the relationship between our world and that of the superheroes, showing how each reinvention of a character by a new creative team has held up a mirror to real-world preoccupations, latent or otherwise. Written in a conversational style, and full of Morrison s trademark wit, humour and dynamic storytelling as well as unique insights into his own working practices Supergods unlocks one of the most exciting and least explored strands of popular culture.
