Here, for the first time, is an extensively researched soup-to-nuts history of the superhero movie, from the first bargain-basement black-and-white serials to today's multiverse blockbusters. Chronicling eight decades of stops and starts, controversies and creators, good guys and bad guys--both onscreen and off--this entertaining and insightful account explains how and why our entertainment universe came to be overpowered by costumed crimefighters and their nefarious counterparts.
