“Adventure and artistry of comic books serves as an important outlet for creativity and escapism. Its iconography offers a visual language that is recognizable and accessible to diverse audiences and age groups. This subculture medium represents a modern mythology that brings larger-than-life subject matter into the predictability of our everyday lives.” Curtis Gannon
