Latinx Superheroes

from Don't Interrupt Me, Por Favor

Are we in a golden age for Latinx superheroes and comics? Ricardo Padilla thinks so, and he should know–he co-founded the annual Latino Comics Expo. He expects this year's event (March 15-16) to attract thousands of people to Modesto, California, where they can meet iconic and up-and-coming artists, take workshops, and discover new protagonists who look like them. And can the creative whirlwind also known as Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez help "Ricanstruct" Puerto Rico after the perfect storm of crushing debt and Hurricane Maria hit the island? With the help of La Borinqueña and legions of fans, he's trying! Special thanks to Connor Button, who created our theme music, and to Warren Lawrence for his control room finesse.
