The story of the making of a colossal, star-studded, multimillion-dollar superhero action film...and the humble comic book that inspired it. PART ONE of this story takes place in 1947. A troubled soldier, returning from the war, meets his talented five-year-old nephew, leaves an indelible impression, and then disappears for 23 years. Cut to 1970: The nephew, now drawing underground comic books in Oakland, California, reconnects with his uncle and, remembering the comic book he saw when he was five, draws a new version with his uncle as a World War II fighting hero. Cut to the present day: A commercially successful director discovers the 1970 comic book and decides to turn it into a contemporary superhero movie. Cue the cast: We meet the film's extremely difficult male star, his wonderful leading lady, the eccentric writer/director, the producer, the go-fer production assistant, and everyone else on both sides of the camera. Funny, touching, and wonderfully thought-provoking, this is a novel not only about the making of a movie, but also about the changes in America and American culture since World War II. Bonus material: Interspersed throughout are the three comic books that are featured in the story - all created by Hanks himself - including the comic book that becomes the official tie-in to this novel's "major motion picture masterpiece.""-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Superhero films $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Motion pictures $x Production and direction $z United States $v Fiction. 651 0 $a United States $x Civilization $y 1945- $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Sikoryak, R., $e illustrator. 941 $a 117 952 $l WMPC185 $d 20240523172159.0 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516015741.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509013844.0 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430021201.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417020412.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412010603.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409044249.0 952 $l JSPB572 $d 20240323012836.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025018.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305022011.0 952 $l SWPB522 $d 20240229011836.0 952 $l GPPC641 $d 20240222010558.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20240126010213.0 952 $l SJPB094 $d 20240123010910.0 952 $l BRPD251 $d 20240119020829.0 952 $l UBPC631 $d 20231228012830.0 952 $l JNPC081 $d 20231227013755.0 952 $l SBPB074 $d 20231226011423.0 952 $l GVPC501 $d 20231222013320.0 952 $l FOPB224 $d 20231214153122.0 952 $l SKPC094 $d 20231212011110.0 952 $l HLPC845 $d 20231208010521.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207020559.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206012303.0 952 $l BXPC851 $d 20231205010455.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20231202011648.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20231129010102.0 952 $l ELPC715 $d 20231122152316.0 952 $l EGPB605 $d 20231121143331.0 952 $l VXPE964 $d 20231121010956.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20231121010753.0 952 $l EFPB605 $d 20231120171557.0 952 $l HNPC845 $d 20231114010947.0 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20231111013142.0 952 $l AJPE887 $d 20231109010053.0 952 $l BLPC611 $d 20231028015241.0 952 $l FHPB224 $d 20231026010437.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025015050.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20231021031901.0 952 $l VEPB334 $d 20231011010310.0 952 $l TVPD862 $d 20231002112448.0 952 $l VKPE334 $d 20230929011614.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20230929010831.0 952 $l EBPE325 $d 20230929010211.0 952 $l FJPC224 $d 20230927010451.0 952 $l OEPC877 $d 20230926165716.0 $m F Han 952 $l YMPD532 $d 20230923010759.0 952 $l S3PA501 $d 20230922153809.0 952 $l SEPC074 $d 20230922010435.0 952 $l XHPD657 $d 20230920010712.0 952 $l FTPA274 $d 20230920010230.0 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20230919015030.0 952 $l WXPD305 $d 20230919010857.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20230915010453.0 952 $l DNPA403 $d 20230909011653.0 952 $l YWPD162 $d 20230902015237.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902014523.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20230902012051.0 952 $l FMPC224 $d 20230829010533.0 952 $l YUPD232 $d 20230824014438.0 952 $l YYPC162 $d 20230822012528.0 952 $l SXPC124 $d 20230822012312.0 952 $l PZPA094 $d 20230818021339.0 952 $l SZPC124 $d 20230812011045.0 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20230812010701.0 952 $l CQPE926 $d 20230812010435.0 952 $l ENPC715 $d 20230808010842.0 952 $l RNPC397 $d 20230805012151.0 952 $l ZXPC675 $d 20230802014057.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20230802013154.0 952 $l KLPC566 $d 20230801010658.0 952 $l WWPC305 $d 20230729010818.0 952 $l DYPD423 $d 20230729010032.0 952 $l YXPB162 $d 20230725012111.0 952 $l VMPC334 $d 20230725011646.0 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20230725011322.0 952 $l TBPD706 $d 20230725011120.0 952 $l CWPB586 $d 20230721010149.0 952 $l CIPB482 $d 20230721010140.0 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20230719010420.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20230719010241.0 952 $l BNPD611 $d 20230713013926.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230708011634.0 952 $l JMPC081 $d 20230707011254.0 952 $l XWPC787 $d 20230706020846.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230630010854.0 952 $l WCPC115 $d 20230629024045.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230629015413.0 952 $l YGPC162 $d 20230627011550.0 952 $l VZPB964 $d 20230627011423.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20230622010253.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20230621011712.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230621011220.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230621010710.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20230621010116.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20230617010056.0 952 $l WKPE185 $d 20230614010633.0 952 $l OCPA943 $d 20230613010100.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230607010054.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230606011159.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20230606010935.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20230606010345.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230603011410.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230603010728.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230603010101.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20230602015653.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20230602011650.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20230527010548.0 952 $l ZBPE245 $d 20230526011625.0 952 $l YKPE532 $d 20230524010928.0 952 $l TNPD062 $d 20230524010850.0 952 $l SHPC094 $d 20230524010754.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230524010413.0 952 $l FFPC194 $d 20230523011357.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20230518010312.0 952 $l ZLPD437 $d 20230508143441.0 952 $l HHPC765 $d 20230502013359.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EF6F609EE8B011ED84E9FF1C55ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
