PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Will Brooker is Professor of Film and Cultural Studies at Kingston University, UK. He is the author of many books on popular culture, cultural icons, cultural history and audiences, including Batman Unmasked, Using the Force, Alice’s Adventures, The Audience Studies Reader, The Blade Runner Experience, Hunting the Dark Knight, Forever Stardust, Why Bowie Matters, and the BFI Film Classics volume on Star Wars.
Although there has certainly been a great deal of critical ink spilled fawning over Watchmen over the years, Brooker broadens our understanding of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ landmark series by examining the network of texts that contribute to the Watchmen matrix, revealing new insights, inspirations and intertexts that expose the beating heart that pumps through the veins and capillaries of one of the most feted and celebrated texts of Western popular culture. It is, quite simply, the best book I’ve encountered on the topic. -- William Proctor, Bournemouth University, UK A masterful study of all-things-Watchmen, from Moore and Gibbons’s original tale to its sequels, prequels, adaptations and parodies. From comics to cinema to television to games and beyond, Brooker’s expert insights guide us through the enduring relevance of Watchmen across eras, platforms and media. -- Blair Davis, DePaul University, USA
