Thrilling Tales of Canadian superheroes... and villains 75 years
ago Canadian cartoonist Joe Shuster co-created the world's premier
superhero: Superman. Over the decades the genre has gone from camp
to counter-culture, from pop art to postmodern, from noir to new
wave. Today's superheroes feature in bestselling novels, hit TV
shows, Hollywood blockbusters ... and Masked Mosaic: Canadian Super
Stories. Mexican luchadores wrestle primordial evil in Vancouver
... The Intrepids battle Nazis in Nova Scotia ... A mysterious
masked man rescues an adventuring heiress in a steampunk Gold
Rush-era Yukon ... Zombies and ancient Viking magic are unleashed
in downtown Toronto ... A godlike oracle wanders Calgary with her
cyborg handler ... The fearsome Iron Shadow stalks the streets of
Kingstonia ... The Coachwhip and Cat-Girl fight crime in lurid
wartime Montreal ... In these 24 tales Canada's most daring writers
reimagine the super genre from its outer limits to its pulp
origins, exploring the diverse landscape of Canadian identity and
geography. With stories by: Marie Bilodeau Chantal Boudreau Kristi
