Southeast Asian Superheroes and Imagination


If you missed Nor Sanavongsay and I at ZAPPCON last weekend, you can read a few thoughts from Nor Sanavongsay over at Little Laos on the Prairie on the different issues that might be at play in a Southeast Asian superhero tradition in countries that haven't yet really developed one. And of course you can follow his sketches and other ideas over at http://artofnor.tumblr.com or follow him on twitter at @Artofnor

On Twitter, you can also check out the hashtag #SEASuperheroes for some of my thoughts on the subject, as well as those of others in the field from around the world. I suppose the world does need a book of Lao American superehero poems, soon. Might have to start looking into that...
