IDW & Reuben H. Fleet Science Center To Hold Talks On The Science Of Comics In San Diego

TFW2005 reports that IDW has teamed up with San Diego's Reuben H. Fleet Science Center to hold a series of events titled "Crossover: Where Comics & Science Meet." While all the talks are set to feature comic properties currently published by IDW - Orphan Black, Star Trek, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Godzilla - the first talk on April 22 should be of particular interest to Transformers fans as it centers on robotics in comics! Keep reading for the full description and schedule.

Diehard fans know comics are no trivial matter. They aren't just picture books for children and geeky adults. Comics have a long history of addressing complex issues, from science lab accidents to ethics, moral issues and social justice. Join IDW Publishing and the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center for a four-part event series for adults 21+ that will look at the art, science and technology featured in some of our favorite comics.

How do artists create the artwork? How do writers develop the stories?
Are they communicating realistic scientific concepts?
Could they even be predicting what's to come in science and technology?

Comic book artists, writers and local scientists will give short talks, followed by open discussion, addressing the creative and scientific sides of comics. Enjoy local brews and stimulating discussion with comic book creators and fans! Events will be held at the San Diego Comic Art Gallery in Liberty Station on select Friday nights. Come to one or all!
