Who crushed a glass at his comic book wedding? Learn about superheroes with Jewish creators\, writers\, and artists\, from Spider-Man to Senorita Rio. Sections on the development of cartoons in Yiddish and in modern Hebrew augment the story. The exhibition includes contemporary graphic novels which explore Jewish themes from Israel to Iraq and back to America. Scenes from local DC-area comic fandom round out the exhibition\, welcoming new and old comic enthusiasts into the story. \n\n\n\nThere will be time before and after the tour to view the museum and stop by the gift shop before we leave for lunch (at own cost).  \n\n\n\nQuestions?
