DESCRIPTION:A detective superhero who will stop at nothing to reveal the mo
 nstrous truth. A messianic visionary convinced he alone can right a wicked
  world\, and a blue god-man in search of a thermodynamic miracle. Decades 
 removed\, a motley collection of police officers seize masks and capes to 
 find strange\, alienating answers to their deepest despair. Dive into Watc
 hmen\, the greatest superhero story ever told. This one-week IAP offering 
 immerses us in the original 12-issue comic book series\, while studying al
 ongside its acclaimed sequel\, created thirty-three years later for televi
 sion. How does the original comic book proffer a culminating text for supe
 rhero narratives\, shining an unflinching spotlight on the genre’s prote
 an preoccupations in wedding the symbols of mythology\, modernity\, and te
 chnology\, to fragile\, fallible human bodies? How does the television seq
 uel elaborate upon and complicate the original text’s examination of Ame
 rican exceptionalism\, racial persecution\, and urban malaise? At the end 
 of the week\, students will examine in a short essay how two different med
 ia—on-the-margins comics and consensus narrative TV—interrogate the st
 ructure of the superhero in distinct ways.\nSajan Saini\n\nCMS.S60: Last s
