Supergods What Sun Gods Can Teach US About Being Human

"Acclaimed creator Grant Morrison presents a brilliant and wildly entertaining exploration of how our culture gave birth to the otherworldly super-heroes, how they've changed as we've changed, and how they've transformed us. From the most acclaimed and oracular writer in the comics world, here is a mind-jolting look at one of the most ubiquitous, beloved, and misunderstood of American creations - our superheroes. Supergods is a polymath, intellectually exhilarating book about our culture, our history, our future, and the heroic power of the stories we tell."
