Hello, everyone. Rob Weir and I are happy to announce the publication of our co-edited book, _Pop Culture Matters: Proceedings of the 39th Conference of the Northeast Popular Culture Association_. Published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing, it consists of the top papers presented at the NEPCA conference held in Amherst, Mass. about a year and a half ago. The book's 29 chapters deal with a broad range of popular culture topics, including toxic masculinity on television, film adaptations, the graphic war novel, the work of Neil Gaiman, gender and mixed martial arts, philosophy and video games, and pop culture pedagogy. More information about _Pop Culture Matters_ is available at the publisher's website: https://www.cambridgescholars.com/pop-culture-matters If you have any questions about this anthology, please feel free to contact me off-list at [log in to unmask] best wishes, Marty Norden ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Martin F.
