Catch @anc_historian next Saturday at 11 am at @be

Catch @anc_historian next Saturday at 11 am at @beartooththeatre for a FREE history talk on Alaska in comics:

“When Wonder Woman Punched a Polar Bear: What Alaska Representation in Comics Books Says About Alaska and Outsiders.”

Cyclops of the X-Men was born here. The FBI pursued draft dodgers. Batman hunted a werewolf. And Godzilla attacked the pipeline. The history of Alaska in comic books and strips dates back to the 19th century, across multiple generations and trends. From true life travel adventures before the Klondike Gold Rush to pipeline construction to modern superhero antics, comics have tried to capture very different aspects of life in Alaska, to wildly varying success.

Get your tickets at the Bear Tooth box office today!

For over a century, filmmakers have used Alaska. They took the landscape and stories and carried them Outside to sell tickets and make money. Sometimes they tried to make it accurate. More often they failed, in ways alternatingly silly and insulting. But the larger pattern of representation illustrates something real, what people elsewhere thought of Alaska and Alaskans. Follow the history of Alaska movies with a presentation overflowing with rare clips and trailers. After the show, browse the exclusive YouTube playlist to learn more.

Spenard 2nd Saturday presents our 2024 Fall Sticke

Spenard 2nd Saturday presents our 2024 Fall Sticker Artist: @theferalcreative !

RJ Fontaine is a self-taught, Slavic-American outsider/folk artist born and raised on Dena’ina land. Their handpainted stories aim to magnify kaleidoscopes of spirit within a single water droplet, wound, prayer, or moment in time. ‘Better Together’ is a tribute to the Spenard community and our tenacious desire to help one another succeed.

Find the limited edition sticker design featuring the white raven at participating storefronts through November!
