In this month's episode, Michael, Anna, and Andrew take a look at a pair of comics that recontextualize iconic heroes into the suburban sprawl. Through a comparative reading of Tom King and Gabriel Hernandez Walta's "The Vision" and James Sturm and Guy Davis's "Fantastic Four: Unstable Molecules," our panel will address such topics as character consistency, metatextual narratives, and the sexual mechanics of at least one Avenger. Anna will also provide a review of Henry Jenkins' essay "Just Men in Tights: Rewriting Silver Age Comics in an Era of Multiplicity."
