There’s nothing I don’t love about this book, including its reliance on fair use. The cover shows popular characters as modern archetypes—the Demon Hunter, the Billionaire, the Rock Star, the FBI Agent—and I love that we can recognize Mulder’s mouth and Dean Winchester’s jawline and Tony Stark’s jawline along with John Boyega and Benedict Cumberbach’s faces. Coppa provides introductory essays and further reading for each of the stories, which are chosen to illustrate specific types of fan fiction, tropes, and themes in responses to popular culture. The stories are both accessible and really good, which can be a hard trick to pull off. Among my favorites, Rheanna’s Lunch and Other Obscenities (ST:Reboot); Koi’s Three Fairy Tales of Smallville (SV); Astolat’s Queen of Spades (Bond), and Glockgal’s Supernatural, aka the Boys in Arizona (SPN). But those are just my favorites because of my own personal connections; even without that, the essays are illuminating and the stories powerful. ( )
