Biographical Information:
The concept of the comic can be traced back as far as the visual narratives of prehistoric cave paintings and Egyptian hieroglyphics.
The modern comic derives from what many term "the golden age," specifically with the introduction of Superman. The "man of
steel" triggered a fascination with comic book heroes; heroes who took flawed forms in the 1960s. Today, the comic serves
not only as a vehicle for super-heroes, but also as a channel for political thought, education, alternative culture, and critiques
of society. Contemporary interest in the comic trade, spurred by conventions and independent distribution, fosters a creative
environment in which new genres and edgy content drive the scene.
