Calling All Superheroes, A talk by Richard Reddie author and historian

'If you take a close look at the box office in the USA or UK it?s hard not to notice the popularity of so-called superhero movies. Whether they are from Marvel or DC, the cinema is awash with characters imbued with super strength or gadgets which enable them to fight against injustice and crime. What once belonged in the comic books of geeks is now a box-office goldmine, offering action and special effects galore for the entire family. This talk will cover this growing phenomenon, linking superheroes with the time-honoured action figures that we all know and cherish, and explore the history and continuing socio-cultural impact that they have on society. This interactive talk is for the expert and uninitiated alike. Please bring along your action figure of choice, graphic novels and comics to share your memories!'

Thursday 25th June, 19:00 ? 20:00 Adults, Teens, and all graphic novel lovers, Free, More information contact Lilian Quamina-Reddi or Richard Bryan on 02075252000
