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