ComicStory is podcast edutainment for those who love superheroes and history!
Superhero Comics are a uniquely American artform that have intertwined with US history since their inception. Hosts Hollis Thompson and Kelly Guentner explore the ways that superhero comics both mirror what’s going on in the history of their era and even influence that history.

Superheroes have become our modern mythology, and the way the stories have evolved with US society is fascinating from a sociological standpoint. From the adventures of “regular guy,” Peter Parker – to Superman versus the KKK – this podcast explores the ways those characters and the comic industry that brought them to us have shaped American history – and vice versa.
