Black comic book art shows at university

The exhibition "Other Heroes: African-American comics, creators, characters and archetypes" focuses on topics such as the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Hurricane Katrina and racial stereotypes.
I'm noticing more comic book-focused news articles without 'POW!' or 'Holy INSERT-RELATED-WORD-HERE' headlines, so that's nice. The only thing I found odd about this story was that Denys Cowan was identified as "artist for 'Hardware'" since he last drew for it in 1994 (and the comic is no longer published).
