(Bronze Age) Reflections #03
In the Clutches of the Code (UBA #5, from October 2014)
Professor
Alan and Em convene to reflect on one of the network's crowning achievements, episode 5 of Em's late, lamented solo show, Uncovering the Bronze Age. In the introduction, they talk broadly about Em's process in researching and producing the episode.
Then, they replay the episode in it's entirety, before returning to provide some reflections, 11 years after its original airing.
If you are unfamiliar with the episode, Em delves into one of the most terrifying, bone-chilling topics known to comic fandom -- Seduction of the Innocent and the Comics Code Authority!
Follow
along on the journey through the mind of one of the most infamous names
in all of comic book history. What you find may SURPRISE, THRILL, and
DISTURB you!
Intellectual analysis and academic criticism abound
in this PULSE-POUNDING episode. And prepare for the SHOCKING twist
ending that closes out our tale.
How does the episode stand up? How many comments and ideas would Em revise and amend, if preparing the episode anew?
