A Brief History of Comic Book Movies traces the meteoric rise of
the hybrid art form of the comic book film. These films trace their
origins back to the early 1940s, when the first Batman and Superman
serials were made. The serials, and later television shows in the
1950s and 60s, were for the most part designed for children. But
today, with the continuing rise of Comic-Con, they seem to be more
a part of the mainstream than ever, appealing to adults as well as
younger fans. This book examines comic book movies from the past
and present, exploring how these films shaped American culture from
the post-World War II era to the present day, and how they adapted
to the changing tastes and mores of succeeding generations.
