Batman: 75 Years of Transmedia Text
Concordia University, EV-6,720
Axes de recherche: 
Since 1940, one year after his inception, Batman has occupied multiple media texts: from 1943 onwards, he has also existed across multiple media forms. This talk takes us through 75 years of Batman as a cross-platform cultural icon, tracing his journey from comics through newspaper strips and film serials to television, movies and video games. It argues that these different Batmen exist in a dialogue, rather than a simple process of adaptation, and examines the way in which they continue to inform each other, right up to the Arkham video games, the Gotham TV show and the Batman v Superman blockbuster.
