eurent le plus à souffrir de l'hostilité de la Commission
de surveillance et de contrôle des publications destinées à
la jeunesse. On peut même parler, de la part de cet
organisme, de persécution, tant les éditeurs ont été soumis
à un harcèlement incessant et à de constants rappels à
l'ordre. Pour reprendre une expression à la mode, on
pourrait se demander pourquoi tant de haine. Les raisons
tiennent sans doute à la nature du genre superhéros et à
celle de la Commission elle-même." -- English summary (from
p. 142): "Superheroes vs. Supercensors. The violence and
irrealism of superhero stories promptly attracted the wrath
of the supervision committee. Lug (the publishers who
translated the Marvel series into French) received several
warnings, then finally withdrew Fantask in 1967. Four years
later, the monthly Marvel was banned from sale to minors.

-- Bibliography: leaves 92-96. -- Photocopy of typescript.
-- Ann Arbor, Mich. : University Microfilms International,
1982. -- 21 cm. -- There is no abstract, but this is a
summarizing passage from leaves 24-25: "The three main
themes in the Superman myth are his origin, his superhuman
qualities, and his dual identity as Clark Kent. The origin
or rebirth and freedom from the mother are in the
background and the main dynamism in the myth is the
Adlerian 'will to power.' Superman is the flying, potent
phallic man who has no need of women, yet women (like Lois
Lane) fall at his feet. This points to the latency
reaction-formation of denying sensuality, and is tinged
with revenge for the mother's Oedipal rejection. Socially,
Superman puts his omnipotence in the service of law and
order, or the collective Superego. Id urges as personified
in psychopaths and criminals are mastered. Love and
approval from society is the reward. The socialization is
further manifested in the duality with Clark Kent. Clark
Kent embodies the feeling of powerlessness and inferiority
of the Oedipal and latency child who in transforming to
Superman is magically reborn as the most socially powerful
adult." -- Chapter 3 compares 10 Superman stories from the
1940s with 10 Superman stories from the 1970s. -- Call no.:
