The Comic-Con Museum is partnering with the Will and Ann Eisner Family Foundation to hold a series of Will Eisner Week panels this Saturday that focus on the life, creative output, and lasting legacy of the graphic novel pioneer and comics industry legend.
"I call my panel, ‘And Now for Something Completely Different,’ because it is about Will Eisner's vision for what could be done with the graphic storytelling comics medium," said Jackie Estrada, who has run the Eisner Awards since 1990."He felt that we're just scratching the surface on the things you could do with words and pictures."
"A fantastic book that I'm going to be talking about is 'Mr. Invincible,' his superpower is that he can move around on a comic book page so he can go down a rope from the top panel to the bottom panel, pick something up and bring it back up to the top in order to beat up a criminal or whatever," Estrada said.
"Will Eisner Week was started by the Will and Ann Eisenhower Foundation, and it encourages libraries, institutions, people around the world to, at minimum, read a graphic novel," Estrada said."March 6 was Will's birthday so the first week of March is traditionally Will Eisner Week. They have what they call events celebrating comics and sequential art, graphic novel literacy, free speech, and a legacy of Will Eisner.
