Description
Explore how Theosophy has permeated our culture through the undervalued art-form of graphic novels. The creators of these books, like many artists, find themselves compelled to express stories both personal and deeply spiritual. Many times they are underground publications, and often, the average comic book fan may overlook the more philosophical aspects of these stories. From the perspective of Theosophy, we will examine how these graphic novels are actually teaching profound truths, whether it was intentional or not.
James LeFevour has an M.S. in Written Communication from National-Louis University and a B.S. in Studio Art from Bradley University. He has been studying the world's religions and graphic novels for almost as long as he could read.
