Mapping the path of the American superhero through a history of comics, this exhibition addresses the subject from many perspectives, including aesthetic achievements. The exhibition and accompanying symposium also examine the larger processes of social change through narratives and visual expressions of age, gender, race, religion, culture, and nationalism.  Guest-curated by Ben Saunders, a professor in the Department of English, the exhibition features Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, and others and features original art by the masters of the genre.

Sponsored by the Coeta and Donald Barker Foundation, the William C. Mitchell Estate, and JSMA members.
