BLACK COMIX Panel at C2E2 (Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo) – April 16-18
March 30, 2010
Going to the first ever C2e2 (Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo) this year? Then make sure to check out this amazing panel, one of the first of its kind, based on our upcoming book of the same name – Black Comix: African American Independent Comics, Art & Culture, taking place on April 17 from 5:15PM-6:15PM.
The art and culture of African American independent comics is a vibrant, growing, but drastically overlooked facet of sequential art. Comics creators, scholars and curators John Jennings and Damian Duffy have been on a mission to help spread the word about black comics creators on the grind and under the radar.
From curating national and international comics art exhibitions, to their new art book Black Comix: African American Independent Comics, Art and Culture the pair have gathered together an unprecedented and underappreciated collection of work from working masters of American comics.
Join them for a discussion with comics scholar Stanford Carpenter and comics creators Ashley A. Woods (Millennia War), Jiba Anderson (The Horsemen), and Turtel Onli (Malcolm-10,Sustah Girl) about the art and culture of comics of color.
