Best news I have received in a long time: a critical anthology in which I have an article is going to press on January 15. Time to update the CV.  The title of the anthology is "The Ages of Superman: Essays on the Man of Steel in Changing Times." Thanks to editor Joe Darowski.

It's titled: "The Inflexible Girls of Steel: Subverting Second Wave Feminism in the Extended Superman Franchise," looking at the manner in which the women's liberation movement was portrayed in Supergirl and Lois Lane comics of the early 70s.
