In this book, Troy Michael Bordun brings contemporary comics to bear on several key sites of externalist ethics: personal identity and responsibility; the ethics of revenge; friendship, love, and affection; moral relativity; and the fundamental question of why one should be ethical in the first place. Bordun demonstrates how and why superhero comics can make a significant contribution to our conceptions of ethical behavior, personhood, and belonging.
Troy Michael Bordun is Adjunct Professor of English and Women's and Gender Studies at the University of Northern British Columbia and Instructor of Film Studies and Sociology at Concordia University. His previous books include Genre Trouble and Extreme Cinema: Film Theory at the Fringes of Contemporary Art Cinema (Palgrave MacMillan, 2017).
