Convivio (Spanish for “coexist”) documents the ways in which Jews and Hispanics came to define the American comic book industry. Comics are a unique artistic medium, a paradigm of American assimilationist values and mainstream cultures. Paradoxically, they also demonstrate unique aspects of identity, narrative, ethnicity, religion, race, and the self from its very inception.
