On Comic Books: Our Commonly Felt Need and the Search for Hope

Co-Hosted By Kyle Tomlin

Mockingbird / 10.21.19

Right on time for the new Watchmen series, this video from our recent conference in NYC features commentary on the graphic novel, among other classics. Guided by “God and Comics” co-host Kyle Tomlin, we consider stories of superheroes and what they tell us about who we are, who we think we are, and what we are ultimately longing for. Characters include Superman, Billy Batson, Batman, the Joker, Doctor Manhattan, and others.

    Great talk. Took me back to the Rexall drug store in Overlea MD where I sat on the floor to read Captain Marvel comics in 1949 waiting to be picked up from school.
