This class will explore the history this classic dynamic including:
- The examination of good vs. evil in comics books
- What makes a good superhero and what makes a good “bad” villain?
- The lineage of heroes and villains in popular fiction from comic almanacs and early periodicals, story papers, dime novels, to short-form strip comics.
- The action-filled superheroes and villains from the 2 powerhouse comic book corporations, Marvel and DC, and their “marvelous” creations
