]]> Comment on Marvel Civil War: The Crumbling of a Paper Topic by Ben Roth http://vonsteig.umwblogs.org/2008/09/08/marvel-civil-war-the-crumbling-of-a-paper-topic/#comment-4 Ben Roth Wed, 10 Sep 2008 22:49:22 +0000 http://vonsteig.umwblogs.org/?p=14#comment-4 Hey Eric, it's Ben Roth. Professor Fernsebner told me about your project, and it seems that you're looking at Marvel comics during a timeframe I'm interested in as well (early to middle eighties). In case you hadn't heard from Prof. Fernsebner, I am writing my senior thesis on Asians in Marvel Comics during the Bronze Age of the comic book, with the end goal of showing how depictions of Asian characters changed during the Bronze Age due to political, economic, social, and pop culture influences, and how the aforementioned comics are a unique historical source due to their bringing together several fields of study and analysis into a single widely dispersed medium (how's that for a run-on sentence). Anyway, let me know if there's something about comics during the early 80's which you need more info on, and I can see what I have (my rather large comics collection regretably does not contain any S.H.I.E.L.D. issues, but may have stories featuring particular characters or storylines you are interested in). In return, I would greatly appreciate it if you let me know when/if you come across some information particularly germaine to my research. I'm specifically thinking about issues prominently featuring the character Johnny Woo, who to the best of my knowledge is the only Asian individual in S.H.I.E.L.D., but things like storylines set in China or Japan would be fantastic as well. You can reach me at Bobchillingworth@gmail.com. Thanks for your time. Hey Eric, it’s Ben Roth.

I am dying to read your research. I'm a Marvel comic fan myself, and look forward to your work with great interest. This is so brilliant, both ideas are actually. I am dying to read your research.

Mainly the villans and the struggles, like Iron Man's Manderan representing Communisim. Or maybe even dive into something like how comics have effected the youth and the backlash of the 50's and 60's. Just ideas trying to help. Happy hunting. -Nick As a fellow comic book fan, but probably no where near as well read as I should be, maybe an interesting thing to do would be to track the themes of comics and graphic novels.
