At Comics Reading Comics, the name says it all: Stand-up comedians take a beloved comic book character and dive into their history, evolution, and cultural impact. The show includes a healthy dose of nostalgia and superhero storytelling.
This weekend's show, hosted on Sunday, January 26 at Caveat, spotlights Dazzler—Marvel’s dazzling disco queen—tracing her journey from her shimmering 1980 debut to her modern-day glow-up. The show features Drew Tessier and Lady Bushra. It's presented by Aidan Ewing of Geeks OUT and the New York Queer Comedy Festival.
