Chambliss, coeditor of Assembling the Marvel Cinematic Universe: Essays on the Social, Cultural and Geopolitical DomainsThis is an inspired and inspiring look at Watchmen and its cross-media legacy through the lenses of canonization, myth, transmedia storytelling, paratextuality, nostalgia, racism, white supremacy, and beyond.–Blair Davis, author of Comic Book Movies and Movie Comics: Page to Screen/Screen to Page
