Why does Superman fight Batman? Moreover, why do superheroes and villains do anything they do at all? In this episode, I sit down with author of Economics and Superheroes, Brian O'Rourke, to talk about how economic theory can be applied to superhero comics. We chat about superman, whether or not villains are irrational, and how Wonder Woman was well ahead of the feminist movement.
