In the past decade, heroes and villains spawned from the pages of
comic books have upended popular culture and revolutionised the
entertainment industry. The narratives weave together a multitude
of complementary and sometimes competing storylines, spun across
decades, generations, and mediums, forming a complex tapestry that
simultaneously captures the imagination and captivates the mind.
These stories reveal our own vulnerabilities while casting an ideal
to which we aspire. They pull at our deepest emotions and push us
to the cusp of reality, and bring us back to Earth with a renewed
hope of a better tomorrow. They are an endless source of powerful
metaphors to help us learn and develop, then be the best versions
of ourselves possible. Through the lens of the superhero genre,
each chapter explores contemporary challenges in leadership, team
building, and conflict, while emphasising the role of humanity and
human nature in our own world. Contributors: Ian Boley; Jo Brick;
