  1. about a year later.
  2. However, when he quit both the authority and D.
  3. C. Due to the censorship issue, he began working for
  4. marvel on the popular series Ultimate X Men and the
  5. even more popular The Ultimate which sparked the first Avengers
  6. movie and was very very popular.
  7. The ultimate was very relevant And its post 9 11
  8. climate and he wrote explosions and collateral damage as heavy
  9. topics to use the new public anxiety surrounding terrorism as
  10. a complex theme.
  11. Miller's wild success with this run likely inspired the plot
  12. of civil war.
  13. Mhm. So why Iron Man one growing up in the
  14. U. K.
  15. Miller wasn't socialized with what I believe to be the
  16. uniquely american stubborn obsession with freedom.
  17. He was however bombarded with the social norms of the
  18. UK. It's easy to see how conscious he is of
  19. cultural values in his earlier work on the summer offensive
  20. in the 90s, when he satirizes the public's embarrassment of
  21. the British Royal Family and anxieties about tension in Iraq.
  22. Along with the irrational fear of queerness.
  23. Miller was only immersed in American Society when he joined
  24. D. c.
  25. 2000. Yet he reflects the gung ho ho attitude of
  26. the government's foreign affairs in his run of the authority
  27. explicitly, only a year after he joins 9 11 occurs
  28. and his tactical writing about the government incompetence and mass
  29. destruction in the authority is no longer permitted.
  30. We see Miller becomes sensitive to these topics and the
  31. ultimate where the characters are held accountable for the destruction
  32. they cause.
  33. And so the series is highly successful.
  34. So when the debate between freedom and security is brought
  35. up, Miller knows that security represented by Iron Man wins.
  36. In the public's opinion.
  37. In an interview, Miller remarks, superheroes would be a nightmare.
  38. I don't like seeing buildings come down and as we
  39. all know, this happens at least once an issue these
  40. days. So I was backing Tony all the way through
  41. marvel civil war here, Through Marvel Civil War.
  42. We were able to see the same questions asked and
  43. answered as they were almost 20 years ago.
  44. Uh, so here you can see, uh, issue seven of
  45. civil war, the destruction being caused while, um, Captain America
  46. and Iron Man and their respective superheroes are fighting each
  47. other. And Captain America has just been pulled away by,
  48. um, public, uh, service members from killing Iron Man.
  49. Um, and this is the exact moment when Captain America
  50. realizes that he's not fighting for the public anymore.
  51. He's just fighting.
  52. Um, lastly, I've got my sources.
  53. If I can find him, Here we go.
  54. I've got all my sources.
  55. Uh, thank you so much for listening to my senior
  56. project. MS bianco and mr Stevenson.
  57. Have a nice day.
