Nihil CuritsLegal storytelling is often linked to how Less dominant narratives challenge the norms and assumed history of the status quo. In this article I show how superhero comics do that, and because I use captain America: Truth by Morales and Baker, and Adam: Legend of the Blue Marvel by Grevioux and Broome, this might be of interest to #BlackMastodon. #Law #superheores #comics #GraphicJustice https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/17438721231169162

Supplementary #introduction
I’m currently writing a book called Comics and Communication for the University Press of Mississippi. The subtitle is Graphic Storytelling from Activism to Science. It focuses on #GraphicScience #GraphicMedicine #GraphicJustice & what I think I’ll call #GraphicWitness (a combination of comics journalism & historical comics). I’m also looking to develop a funded project translating a variety of academic work at the University of Auckland into the medium of #comics.
