Back to All Events
For the longest time, comics, sci fi, and fantasy got no respect from anyone. All that’s changed in recent decades thanks to the explosion of comic books and spin-off movies; the mainstream popularity of Star Wars, the Matrix, and the Star Trek reboots; and shows like Game of Thrones and Stranger Things, among others. This sudden explosion may have roots that go beyond economic and “geek-o-nomic,” though, and at the heart of it lies the messages of Judaism. So find out how Peter Parker, Princess Leia, and Mr. Spock not only embody Jewish values and messages, but how these speculative genres may be actually more about the Meshiach than “Moichendising.”
