WonderCon 2025

“I always loved Batman. The way I looked at it, you had to come from another planet to be Superman, but I could be Batman. And you know I tried!”—Bob Dylan. With the recent release of the acclaimed biopic A Complete Unknown, there’s more interest in Nobel laureate Bob Dylan than there has been in years. As he has profoundly affected creators in many media, Dylan has influenced comic book, comic strip, and graphic novel writers and artists for the past six decades. In an expanded version of the presentation he gave at the Dylan in Tulsa, WonderCon special guest Danny Fingeroth (A Marvelous Life: The Amazing Story of Stan Lee; Jack Ruby: The Many Faces of Oswald’s Assassin) explores Dylan references in comics as well as comics references in Dylan’s oeuvre.
