No Seriously What’s up With All the Corn(don’t look at me)
What’s up with all the corn? Great question! Short answer: the corn signifies humanity.
Corn has a long and fascinating history (no don’t laugh) not just as an agricultural staple, but as a religious and cultural image. I could tell you so many things about corn. I’ll focus on the specific contexts where it’s used as an image in Supernatural, and hopefully this won’t turn into a book.
Huh, that’s really interesting. I hadn’t thought about corn as being manufactured by humans.
I guess that would support the theme of identity and self-transformation that’s been running through the past couple of seasons. That Dean isn’t becoming a monster in the natural (lol, supernatural?) way, through turning or being born that way, but pursuing a course that abandons his humanity (“I’m poison”) and transforms him into a weapon.
