Copyright Vigilantes. Intellectual Property and the Hollywood Superhero, Paperback/Ezra Claverie

Explains superhero blockbusters as allegories of intellectual property relations. In movies based on characters owned by DC and Marvel, no narrative recurs more often than a villain’s attempt to copy the superhero’s unique powers. In this volume, Ezra Claverie explains this fixation as a symptom of the films’ mode of production.
