Supergods Vigilantes Mutants Sun Gods Teach Being Human Softcover (

Reprinted with additional material, an autobiographical comic about Grant Morrison's encounter with the Superworld! For the millions who know and love the great pantheon of superheroes, here's a brilliant and wildly entertaining exploration of the phenomenon - the story of how our culture gave birth to these otherworldly heroes, how they've changed as we've changed, and how they've transformed us. Here is a mind-jolting look at one of the most ubiquitous, beloved, and misunderstood of American creations: our superheroes. Much more than a book about comics or pop ephemera, Supergods is a polymathic, intellectually exhilarating book about us: our culture, our history, our future, and the heroic power of the stories we tell.
