To my knowledge, I have never read or seen that many horror comics that involve women taking the lead over the typical male. Just like in Vampirella, it had some horror in it, but was more focused on being sexual and outlandish. One particular comic book series I was quite fond of was The Sandman by award-winning writer Neil Gaiman. What really got my attention was the character Death; the sister of the main protagonist Sandman. Death is both the lord and personification of all death and life

photographs of the Jack the Ripper’s, a 19th century serial killer, victims and how they are taken in a way which wrongs the victims. The author uses many sources to provide evidence for her argument.

“It’s not that many people... right?” I asked myself. Even the idea of taking a group of 19 people of varying ages and abilities on a ski trip was madness. But for me it was becoming reality (again!). We had tried this before in 2012 and a great time was had by all. I had particularly enjoyed that trip, as being an only child, I am usually on holiday alone with my parents, so to have the chance to ski with a group my age filled me with excitement and anticipation of fun times!

“The Shining” is a novel written by Stephen King in 1977 and a horror movie directed by Stanley Kubrick in 1980. The novel and movie tells a story about Jack Torrance, who becomes the off-season winter caretaker of the Overlook Hotel. Although the movie and the book have some similarities; there are many differences from the adaptation of the novel. After watching the movie and reading the book, my preference is the novel since it goes into details about describing the characters and the portrayal

The House on Veteran’s Boulevard I lived in a house on Veteran’s Boulevard for the first two years of my life. It was there that I learned to walk and talk. Living in the house was entirely uneventful. There is videos from my first birthday that were filmed in this house. I was chubby and red faced and happy, sitting in my highchair not so patiently awaiting my birthday cake, the first i 'd ever had.

trickster character, but can relate to the tricksters we have read about, Jack Sparrow a pirate played by Johnny Depp from a popular Walt Disney movie called Pirates and the Caribbean. Despite the differences between the trickster figures being from very different settings, these characters all very similar to each other. You may ask, how can you possibly relate or define Jack Sparrow as a trickster character? Well, Jack Sparrow embodies everything a trickster character should. Sparrow is very

As the sun reaches its horizon and the shadows of buildings cast endless shade, people from all over Denton come out to “the square” (downtown). The freedom to roam around, catch a bite, a coffee, read a book, hang out with friends or even just relax is there. A variety of shops surrounds Denton’s courthouse giving the people choices from choosing an ice cream shop to getting a tattoo. However, as many people would say there is one particular spot that catches our attention even from a couple blocks

Along with him he brings his wife, Wendy and his five-year-old son, Danny, to spend the winter alone at the Hotel.

entertainment often reflect multiple ideologies at any given moment. Tina Fey’s satirical comedy, 30 Rock, provides plenty of nods to ideologies surrounding the workplace, specifically the entertainment business. In the fifth episode of season one, “Jack-Tor,” Jack Donaghy, the big-shot “Vice President of East Coast Television and Microwave Oven
