A short documentary film that I made in 2012 as a high school student when I was assigned to make a documentary in an elective I was taking. All interviews were conducted early that year. Focus of the documentary was to delve into what makes the comic medium unique and special as an art form. Why do superheroes appeal to us? Does reading comics promote literacy? All sentiments discussed in the documentary.
