Examines the adventure serial as a distinct artform, one that uniquely encouraged audience participation and imaginative play. Scott Higgins proposes that the serial's incoherent plotting and reliance on formula should be understood as some of its most appealing attributes. Further, he suggests these serials laid the groundwork for modern-day cinematic blockbusters and for all kinds of interactive media that combine spectacle, storytelling, and play.
