Reviews
" Zorro's Shadow is a wonderfully fascinating account of a pop specter that has long haunted North America: Zorro, a settler-colonial avenger brought to life by Stephen J. C. Andes's dogged archival research and sharp interpretation." --Greg Grandin, author of Fordlandia and The End of the Myth, "In this swashbuckler of a ride, Andes powerfully excavates the true significance of that swish-slash Z: the super-symbol that signifies the strength, struggle, and spirit of Latinx folx yesterday, today, and tomorrow." --Frederick Luis Aldama, editor of Tales from la Vida: A Latinx, "SADDLE UP! Andes takes us on an exhilarating, dust-kicking ride through the actual origins and history of the first hemispheric Latinx superhero: Zorro. Washing off proverbial monochromatic whites to reveal beautiful browns, we deep-dive into hemispheric Latinx histories that precede Johnston McCulley's 1919 pulp along with the blitz of Euro-Anglo makeovers in TV, film, and mainstream comic books. In this swashbuckler of a ride, Andes powerfully excavates the true significance of that swish-slash Z: the super-symbol that signifies the strength, struggle, and spirit of Latinx folx yesterday, today, and tomorrow." --Frederick Luis Aldama, editor of Tales from la Vida: A Latinx, "Zorro's Shadow is definitely a 'come for the geeky details, stay for the powerful insight' kind of book. Would recommend!" --Noelle, Goodreads, "Zorro's Shadow is the history I've been waiting for all my life, without even knowing it." --Jeffrey Mariotte, Goodreads, "...a wildly entertaining journey. Andes leaves no stone unturned in his quest for the first superhero on the continent. Just in time for the original caped crusader's 100th anniversary, you owe yourself a look through this fun and fascinating ride." --Kilewy, Goodreads, "Zorro's Shadow is a wonderfully fascinating account of a pop specter that has long haunted North America: Zorro, a settler-colonial avenger brought to life by Stephen J. C. Andes's dogged archival research and sharp interpretation." --Greg Grandin, author of Fordlandia and The End of the Myth
Synopsis
"SADDLE UP! Andes takes us on an exhilarating, dust-kicking ride through the actual origins and history of the first hemispheric Latinx superhero: Zorro." --Frederick Luis Aldama, editor of Tales from la Vida: A Latinx Zorro's Shadow explores the masked character's Latinx origins and his impact on pop culture--the inspiration for the most iconic superheroes we know today. Long before Superman or Batman made their first appearances, there was Zorro. Born on the pages of the pulps in 1919, Zorro fenced his way through the American popular imagination, carving his signature letter Z into the flesh of evildoers in Old Spanish California. Zorro is the original caped crusader, the first masked avenger, and the character who laid the blueprint for the modern American superhero. Historian and Latin American studies expert Stephen J. C. Andes unmasks the legends behind Zorro, showing that the origins of America's first superhero lie in Latinx history and experience. Revealing the length of Zorro's shadow over the superhero genre is a reclamation of the legend of Zorro for a multiethnic and multicultural America., "SADDLE UP Andes takes us on an exhilarating, dust-kicking ride through the actual origins and history of the first hemispheric Latinx superhero: Zorro." --Frederick Luis Aldama, editor of Tales from la Vida: A Latinx Zorro's Shadow explores the masked character's Latinx origins and his impact on pop culture--the inspiration for the most iconic superheroes we know today.

    Amazing seller. Received the DVD very quickly. The DVD was as advertised (new), packed very carefully and with great care. The DVD arrived in excellent condition and available for a great price considering it's an out of print title.

    Great experience purchasing from them. The item arrived so well packed and secured that it took me around 5+ minutes just to open fully. Condition was as advertised (photos were accurate), price was exceptional, and the item was delivered ahead of schedule. I hope to be able to buy from them again!
