“Action packed.” —CBR Darkseid is hungry for power. The deposed dread lord of Apokolips is eager to take back his throne from the warring forces that now rule his world…but after all he’s been through recently, he doesn’t yet possess the power to bring Apokolips to heel. The power that Darkseid craves is in Wonder Woman’s home of Themyscira, which has been sealed off entirely from Earth. And what Darkseid wants, Darkseid gets. Now the Female Furies and Darkseid’s daughter, Grail, have been dispatched around the world to capture artifacts with the power to unlock Themyscira’s gates…artifacts under the protection of Wonder Woman and her mysterious, long-lost brother, Jason. Without the Justice League by her side, it’s up to Diana and her friends to stop Darkseid from attaining the power of Themyscira. But what hope does one Amazon have against the armies of Apokolips? In these stories from Wonder Woman #38-45, writer James Robinson (Starman) and artists Emanuela Lupacchino (Supergirl) and Ray McCarthy (Red Robin) continue an epic seeded in DC Universe: Rebirth #1.

This new monograph provides a stimulating new take on hotly contested topics in world modernization and the globalizing economy. It begins by situating what is called the Great Divergence--the social/technological revolution that led European nations to outpace the early dominance of Asia--in historical context over centuries. This is contrasted with an equally powerful Great Convergence, the recent economic and technological expansion taking place in Third World nations and characterized by narrowing inequity among nations. They are seen here as two phases of an inevitable global process, centuries in the making, with the potential for both positive and negative results. This sophisticated presentation examines: Why the developing world is growing more rapidly than the developed world. How this development began occurring under the Western world's radar. How former colonies of major powers grew to drive the world's economy. Why so many Western economists have been slow to recognize the Great Convergence. The increasing risk of geopolitical instability. Why the world is likely to find itself without an absolute leader after the end of the American hegemony A work of rare scope, Great Divergence and Great Convergence gives sociologists, global economists, demographers, and global historians a deeper understanding of the broader movement of social and economic history, combined with a long view of history as it is currently being made; it also offers some thrilling forecasts for global development in the forthcoming decades.

There She Goes Again interrogates the representation of ostensibly powerful women in transmedia franchises, examining how presumed feminine traits—love, empathy, altruism, diplomacy—are alternately lauded and repudiated as possibilities for effecting long-lasting social change. By questioning how these franchises reimagine their protagonists over time, the book reflects on the role that gendered exceptionalism plays in social and political action, as well as what forms of knowledge and power are presumed distinctly feminine. The franchises explored in this book illustrate the ambivalent (post)feminist representation of women protagonists as uniquely gifted in ways both gendered and seemingly ungendered, and yet inherently bound to expressions of their femininity. At heart,There She Goes Again asks under what terms and in what contexts women protagonists are imagined, envisioned, embodied, and replicated in media. Especially now, in a period of gradually increasing representation, women protagonists demonstrate the importance of considering how we should define—and whether we need—feminine forms of knowledge and power.
