Canada has not always had the role of 'friendly neighbor to the north.' In fact, the seemingly peaceful history of relations between the United States and Canada is punctuated with instances of border disputes, annexation manifestos and trade disagreements. David R. Spencer reveals the complexity of this relationship through a fascinating examination of political cartoons that appeared both in the U.S. and Canada from 1849 through the 1990s. By first examining both the cultural and political differences and similarities between the two nations, Spencer lays the groundwork for the main focus of his study - deeper analysis of the political perspectives of the editorial cartoons. Including 141 actual cartoons of the time, Spencer provides meaningful references to the historical material covered. An intriguing study by a leading Canadian-American scholar, this work is sure to interest many across the disciplines of journalism history, cartoons, media studies, communication and international relations.

"Satire s Brew: Mass Media & Coffee Beans" takes a fresh approach to media critique by using a fictional character to guide the reader through an analytical journey of political and social satire.
As the protagonist prepares to give a series of caffeine-fueled lectures, he ruminates on everything from "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" and presidential satire to iconic political cartoonist Thomas Nast and "South Park." Each lecture is filled with literary references, commentary on the American zeitgeist, and the ultimate in the intellectual coffee lifestyle.
As readers engage with the story they have a front row seat to lectures about the state of media and politics, violence in animation, and the comedy of outrage. The audience becomes familiar with the fifth estate and is presented with some of its best examples of media satire.
"Satire s Brew" is an excellent choice for introductory courses on mass media or political humor. Firmly rooted in popular culture while gleefully taking erudite aim at the role of the media, Satire s Brew entertains as it educates.
Each chapter pairs well with a different brand of fair trade organic coffee, not instant, and a slice of Four & Twenty Blackbirds pie.

A semiotic and cultural anthropological interrogation of popular North American superhero narratives, such as those of Superman, Spider-Man, and Batman, provides insight into how media's messages influence the culture's ethical values. Since emerging in the late 1930s, the superhero has become a pervasive figure in North American popular culture. As an extension of ideas presented by Friedrich Nietzsche, Joseph Campbell, and Umberto Eco, this dissertation argues that superhero tales must be regarded as modern mythology. It follows that people observe and learn social norms of justice from such narratives, since these ideals are intrinsic to the tales. In investigating the superhero's role as a contemporary figure of myth, this project focuses primarily on three areas: an account of the history of the superhero from 1938 to present; an examination of the cultural functions of contemporary superhero narratives; and, an interrogation of vigilantism, responsibility, and justice in these narratives and how those concerns further relate to ideologies and practices in North American culture.

Through works like Transmetropolitan, Planetary, and The Authority, Warren Ellis has changed the history of comic books. In this book, Kevin Thurman and Julian Darius examine Ellis's body of work, exploring (among other topics) how his early work for Marvel Comics prefigures the concerns of his later work, how his super-heroes respond to comics history, his use of religion, his use of violence, his fascination with lizards (and what they reveal about the human condition), and how his characters often use anger as a stimulus for revolutionary social action, in defiance of the West's 21st-century malaise. Topical interviews with Ellis complement several essays, expanding the reader's understanding of the themes in Ellis's work.
