| Introduction | • Comic Books, History, and popular culture. Three elements that make up our rising common interests, that give us purpose and inspire both discussion and creativity. This blog intends to instigate discussions on how popular culture is infused with History and how History comes out of Popular Culture. How Captain America makes sense of the Cold War and how Batman keeps on maintaining the status quo in order to fight crime eternally. • What is the state of the memory of the Vietnam War in current popular culture? How does Nick Fury inform it? What happens when a superhero becomes mayor of New York City? Where were our superheroes when the Twin Towers fell? Where was Superman? Where was Spider-Man? These questions and more will be discussed in this blog, Arcades of History! By: Ricardo A. Serrano Denis, Andrés López, and Gabriel A. Rodríguez Martínez |
