Exploring Alter Ego: The Hidden Identities in Comic Culture

Dive into the fascinating world of alter egos in comic books and graphic novels. This project will explore what defines a secret identity, its cultural significance, and how artists like Trenton Doyle Hancock (Torpedo Boy) and Raymond Pettibon (Gumby) express this theme. Over a series of engaging activities, participants will analyze comic books, brainstorm character ideas, and create their own stories and art. Join us on a week-long journey to discover the power of identity and storytelling in visual art!
