Reviews

This gripping book develops an urgent argument: the figure of the superhero in popular culture is at the heart of contemporary security discourse. Researchers and students alike will enjoy a rich theoretical and empirical engagement with key popular culture artefacts as they shape today's political possibilities.--Jack Holland, University of Leeds Marvel, DC and US Security offers a thought-provoking analysis of American security and foreign policy through superhero film franchises. Rigorous yet accessible, it deepens scholarly engagement with popular culture and world politics in the post-9/11 era. A must-read for both superhero film fans and international relations scholars!--Kyle Grayson, University of Newcastle
