Will Eisner Week Pop-up: Belated But Celebrated In-Person
Have you ever read a graphic novel? Almost everyone has and we owe the popularity of the format to comics legend and creator Will Eisner. Eisner, often mistakenly credited as being the creator of the graphic novel, was certainly its biggest advocate and champion for use in education. His influence is so great that there is an annual week dedicated to celebrating his contributions to the comics medium. It is never too late to celebrate Eisner’s achievements, so take a break and join Comics Studies Librarian Jason Larsen at this pop-up. Learn about who Eisner was, view notable works held by Murray & Hong Special Collections, and examine how his legacy continues to influence comics today.
