Book Description
Intersektionalität ist eine disziplinenübergreifende analytische Perspektive, mit deren Hilfe sowohl die Konstitution und Verschränkung identitätslogischer Kategorien als auch multiple Formen der Diskriminierung und normativen Klassifizierung betrachtet werden. Intersektionalität steht in enger Beziehung zu den Gender-, Queer- oder auch Dis/Ability und Postcolonial Studies. Die Auseinandersetzung mit der 'sequenziellen Kunst' aus intersektionaler Perspektive ist ein Desiderat der Comicforschung. Wie der Band zeigen soll, eignen sich Comics aufgrund ihrer medialen Beschaffenheit besonders gut, alternative Lebenswege aufzuzeigen und das 'sichtbar' zu machen, was sich außerhalb des hegemonialen Diskurses befindet. Mit dem Band soll das Potenzial eines intersektionalen Ansatzes für die Comicforschung herausgestellt werden. Dabei steht die Verzahnung verschiedener Differenzachsen wie Gender, Sexualität, Alter, Klasse, Nationalität, Dis/Ability und 'Rasse', sowie die Analyse der mit diesem Wechselspiel einhergehenden hierarchischen Machtverhältnisse im Medium Comic, aber auch im Kontext seiner Produktion und Rezeption im Mittelpunkt der Auseinandersetzung.

Book Description
The Power of the Sea describes our struggle to understand the physics of the sea, so we can use that knowledge to predict when the sea will unleash its fury against us. In a wide-sweeping narrative spanning much of human history, Bruce Parker, former chief scientist of the National Ocean Service, interweaves thrilling and often moving stories of unpredicted natural disaster with an accessible account of scientific discovery. The result is a compelling scientific journey, from ancient man's first crude tide predictions to today's advanced early warning ability based on the Global Ocean Observing System. It is a journey still underway, as we search for ways to predict tsunamis and rogue waves and critical aspects of El Niño and climate change caused by global warming.

Book Description
Enter the world of The Storm Makers, where there's magic behind every forecast. What starts as an ordinary summer turns exciting and perilous for twins Ruby and Simon when strange occurrences begin happening on their farm -- sudden gusts of wind, rainstorms, and even tornado warnings -- that seem eerily timed to Simon's emotions. Then a stranger arrives and tells the twins that Simon is a Storm Maker -- part of a clandestine group of people entrusted with controlling and taming the weather -- and that he is in great danger. Soon Simon and Ruby must race against the clock as they try to master Simon's powers in time to stop a rogue Storm Maker's treacherous -- and potentially deadly -- plans. In this thrilling new adventure, loyalties can shift as quickly as the wind . . . and the ordinary can turn extraordinary in the blink of an eye.

Book Description
2021 Comic Studies Society Prize for Edited Collection From Superman and Batman to the X-Men and Young Avengers, Supersex interrogates the relationship between heroism and sexuality, shedding new light on our fantasies of both. From Superman, created in 1938, to the transmedia DC and Marvel universes of today, superheroes have always been sexy. And their sexiness has always been controversial, inspiring censorship and moral panic. Yet though it has inspired jokes and innuendos, accusations of moral depravity, and sporadic academic discourse, the topic of superhero sexuality is like superhero sexuality itself—seemingly obvious yet conspicuously absent. Supersex: Sexuality, Fantasy, and the Superhero is the first scholarly book specifically devoted to unpacking the superhero genre’s complicated relationship with sexuality. Exploring sexual themes and imagery within mainstream comic books, television shows, and films as well as independent and explicitly pornographic productions catering to various orientations and kinks, Supersex offers a fresh—and lascivious—perspective on the superhero genre’s historical and contemporary popularity. Across fourteen essays touching on Superman, Batman, the X-Men, and many others, Anna F. Peppard and her contributors present superhero sexuality as both dangerously exciting and excitingly dangerous, encapsulating the superhero genre’s worst impulses and its most productively rebellious ones. Supersex argues that sex is at the heart of our fascination with superheroes, even—and sometimes especially—when the capes and tights stay on.
