Shaolin Brew

Race, Comics, and the Evolution of the Superhero

Beschreibung

Looks at how the comic book industry developed from a white perspective and how minority characters were and are viewed through a stereotypical white gaze. The book explores how voices of colour have launched a shift, taking nonwhite characters who were originally viewed through a white lens and situating them outside the framework of whiteness.
