Second Annual Jewish Comic Con
The Jewish Comic Con will be returning to Brooklyn on April 29th, 2018 and will attract hundreds of comic fans to Congregation Kol Israel, a historic Brooklyn synagogue located at 603 Saint Johns Place in Prospect Heights.
In conjunction with the Jewish Comic Con, an art exhibition entitled, POW!!! Jewish Comic Art and Influence will open Thursday, April 26th, 2018 at 7-9 PM.
The second Jewish Comic Con will feature a full day of panel discussions on diverse themes connecting comics and Judaism. April 2018 is also Superman’s 80th birthday, and the Jewish Comic Con will have events focused on that milestone.
There will be an Artist Alley featuring Jewish comic creators and their work. Artists will draw sketches, sell art, and engage with their fans.
The Jewish Comic Con is organized by Fabrice Sapolsky (Spider-Man Noir), Danny Fingeroth (author of Disguised as Clark Kent: Jews and Comics), Julian Voloj (author of The Artist Behind Superman: The Joe Shuster Story) and Kol Israel’s president, Fred Polaniecki, Founder of Brooklyn Jewish Art Gallery and co-creator of the Jewish Comic Con. The Jewish Comic Con is organized in conjunction with the Brooklyn Jewish Art Gallery.

Proceeds from the Jewish Comic Con will go towards the preservation and restoration of Congregation Kol Israel’s historic building on the National Registry of Historic Places. Proceeds will be matched 100% by an anonymous donor.
