The Rise of Comics in Pop Culture
Event Details
Comics aren’t just for the page anymore, they’ve exploded into movies, TV, and everywhere in between.
Join us for The Rise of Comics in Pop Culture, a high-energy look at how comic book storytelling made the leap from ink and panels to the mainstream spotlight. From the campy fun of Adam West’s Batman to the dark, gripping world of The Walking Dead and the blockbuster power of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we’ll explore the moments, characters, and creators that changed everything.
Along the way, we’ll spotlight iconic stops in comic history, including The Incredible Hulk of the 1980s, Batman: The Animated Series, X-Men of the 1990s, and modern hits like Invincible.
Presented by Matt Sernaker, Editor-in-Chief of ComicsOnline, who brings more than 20 years of experience covering comics, film, and pop culture, with appearances at major conventions including San Diego Comic-Con.
