After a full year of recuperation to mend the stroke centers of my brain, I was decidedly nervous to take this step.
But, I have recently returned to semi-public life again, and what better way to hail a quivering hero than to attend the first-ever Indigenous Pop Expo at the First Americans Museum.
Though presented as a comic book convention, the remarkable show was more than that, bringing in a Native army of Indigenous artists, actors, and other boundless ephemera to town, and filling the FAM lobby with excited patrons, costumed and otherwise.
