Sci-ence! Justice Leak! Andrew Hickey

What do Batman, Doctor Who, quantum physics, Oscar Wilde, liberalism, the second law of thermodynamics, Harry Potter fanfic, postmodernism, and Superman have in common? If your answer to that was "Nothing" then... well, you're probably right. But in this book Andrew Hickey will try to convince you otherwise. In doing so he'll take you through: How to escape from a black hole and when you might not want to The scientist who thinks he's proved the existence of heaven and what that has to do with Batman What to do if you discover you're a comic-book character Whether killing your own grandfather is really a bad idea And how to escape from The Life Trap! An examination of the comics of Grant Morrison, Alan Moore and Jack Kirby, Doctor Who spin-off media, and how we tell stories to each other, Sci-Ence! Justice Leak! tells you to look around you and say: "This is an imaginary universe... Aren't they all?"
