Although she’s certainly earned her role as a feminist icon, the origins of Princess Diana the Amazon aren’t exactly as “feminist” as we might think today. Created in 1942 by psychologist William Moulton Marston, Wonder Woman was indeed intended to b...

Book nerd, book worm, book lover. Everytime I hear those words, I can only think of one person. My very good friend Jodi. This hip chick knows her books, and is one of the few people whose opinion I listen to when it comes to what is good to read....

In fact, Batman is just plain selfish. He has nothing to lose but his life, which he offers up haphazardly to satisfy his own selfish adrenaline kicks. Batman is the epitome of the priveleged class. He's operating in his own best interests, and doing...
