Reading: David Hyman--Revision and the Superhero Genre In-Person

This book argues that superhero revision offers new perspectives on the theory and practice of revision in broader contexts, in particular composition studies.  Key developments in the history of superhero and composition revision reveal that both are deeply embedded in questions of narrative temporality.  The book looks at three unorthodox revision strategies: sideshadowing, excavation, and homodoxy.

David Hyman is Associate Professor of English at Lehman College, City University of New York, USA. His scholarship and teaching focus on comics, Spaghetti Westerns, and composition.
