Helpful Articles

Just wanted to share some articles I read recently that I thought others might be interested in, and might be useful if anyone uses "traditional" comics or the Magneto comic as material for any of our projects. I  found a PDF that looks at the psychology of superheroes, and goes more in-depth regarding the Magneto-Malcolm X parallel that has been made. 

Also thought I would throw in this article regarding how comics became political, because it references some other works we will be reading during the semester. 

Lastly, I thought this was interesting, as we are reading some things by Ta-Nehisi Coates and it's been announced that he will be writing Black Panther comics for Marvel. The article discusses race, mostly in terms of Black Panther's character but also discusses comics as a medium that is perhaps more inclusive, than say, film.

Thanks,
