An Unexpected Bridge: Peter Privledge Meets the Brave Flyer, 2021

Peter Privledge, a character based on unmalicious but ignorant white Americans, must choose to either help the superhero, the Brave Flyer, or watch as the supervillain, Suprema-Fist, attempts to destroy him. The Brave Flyer represents my former students in Ypsilanti, Michigan, who are the product of the Ypsilanti Braves and the Willow Run Flyers which consolidated in 2013. Suprema-Fist personifies close-minded and bigoted white perceptions. This almost 70’ long linear comic was installed on the south wall of the Interstate 91 underpass on Grand Avenue in New Haven, Connecticut.

 

Roughly 70’ long

 

20lb poster bond paper, tempera paint, wheatpaste
