The way that people react to the Unknown is an ever relevant topic. Everyone is different, and the range of responses that people can have to something new can highlight both the most positive and negative sides of humanity.
This is something that the sci-fi genre continually comments on by exploring people’s reactions to the Unknown, whether this be different life forms, new technology or an unprecedented event occurring. The superhero sub-genre takes this further by examining the impact that the reactions that both individuals and the public at large can have upon the Unknown itself – in this case, the unique powers that a hero (or villain) has.
Superhero stories have long presented the range of conflicting emotions and reactions that surround meeting the Unknown. From the X-Men’s dark society in which the government wishes to mark and tightly control the ‘mutants’ to the celebrity status enjoyed by Iron Man, the reception…

I tried. I tried really really hard, actually, not to compare Broad City to Girls. I wanted so desperately to not fall into the trap. They are both shows set in New York about girls in their mid-twenties, right? There had to be some similiarities, and of course there are. The similarities are these – both shows are set in New York about girls in their mid-twenties. They both aim to show some kind of reality about what it’s like to be white, twenty-something, and broke. They tried.
I watched Girls a couple of years ago after my friends recommended it to me, and I really liked it. I thought it was funny, candid, and any complaints anyone had seemed to revolve around the whiteness of it all. But as a white girl in her early 20s, it wasn’t too hard to swallow. I saw a lot of myself in both Jessa and…
