Building a World in Comics
9-10pm
Room 1A22
When you open a comic, a world appears on the page in front of you. What goes into creating this world on the part of the writer, and on the part of the artist? Is the process different between fiction and nonfiction? And what pieces do you need to add to that world to make it come alive on the page?
With Mike Cavallaro, George O’Connor, Susan Kim, and Laurence Klavan, moderated by Tucker Stone
