    Summary

    M’Baku fought for T’Challa. But should he keep fighting for T’Challa’s vision? The king is professing change, such deep change, while the Jabari are supposed to be the guardians of tradition.

    It’s a complex problem, which demands a cool head. So M’Baku could really do without an old love coming back to haunt him, an obnoxious royal teenager, and T’Challa’s secret one-armed guest.

    Summary

    Summary

    This is a copy of an essay I wrote for my "Music and Literature" course. It examines six songs related to Captain America, beginning with the infamous Star Spangled Man with a Plan" and then fan-produced filk music, and how transformative fandom has influenced the Captain America and Steve Rogers identities.

    "The importance of the individual Steve Rogers becomes relegated to the side when considering the power of the Captain America mythos yet at the same time, it is impossible to have Captain America without the individual. Taking both figures into consideration, transformative fandom has appropriated both the individual and the mythos into political statements offering subversive readings of a hegemonic cultural production."

    Summary

    The story sounds like a dream, a cheap fiction when she thinks about it too hard. To make it real, she just has to keep moving forward, not looking back.
