Historicizing the Fan Archive of Talia al Ghul

Abstract

This personal essay reflects on an online fan archive for DC Comics character Talia al Ghul that was abandoned, after which time dramatic shifts in the fandom occurred, thereby situating the archive as an artifact of the recent historical past and as a record of the character's history as well as the fandom's history.
