Welcome to home page of the Association for the Advancement of Scholarship and Teaching of the Medieval in Popular Culture, a community of scholars and enthusiasts organized to promote and foster research and discussion of representations of the medieval in post-medieval popular culture and mass media. Encompassing material produced from the close of the Middle Ages to today, these medievalisms can be categorized as survivals, revivals, or re-creations of the medieval in post-medieval eras.

MCP: Muppets and Medievalism from Boom Studies
Comic book publisher Boom Studios has recently published a four-part series called Muppet Robin Hood that recasts the Muppets as characters from the Robin Hood legend. The series (also available as a collected edition) can be ordered direct from the publisher. A forthcoming series called Muppet King Arthur is due out this month, though Boom Studios does not yet have any information online about this series.
