Editorial

In this section of the new issue of Perspectives on Culture, we aim to introduce readers to several important aspects of popular culture through the lens of comic art. We recognize that comic art is a product of popular culture and, as such, reflects significant trends within a given society’s culture while also providing creators with a space to present their own original vision of reality. This is simultaneously a realm of imagination for authors, for whom reality may serve as a subject treated in a realistic and historical manner or as an unconventional challenge that shifts artistic vision into the world of imagination, incorporating surreal or even fully surrealistic elements.
