I loved, loved, loved this book! Reading this was like having a group of fellow comic fans and philosophers over for a very long and exciting discussion. I devoured this. If you want to look differently at the world and at your favorite comic characters, then this is the book for you. I realize that this is a hook for people to get into the series with examples from different works, but I have to say, one of my favorites was unique to this volume (Captain America and the Virtue of Modesty). I put off reading this because I thought it would be just a gimmicky waste of time. Man, was I wrong. I'm hooked, and will be looking forward to reading more books in this incredible series. Comic book superheroes were my personal mythos as a kid and they are modern America's. It is nigh time serious thought went into deciphering what philosophies are espoused by the culture that so adores these stories. If you have a kindle, download today!
