It's less than a week away to the Tulsa Pop Culture Expo, and a very special guest who's in town for the event will also speak at the Center for Poets and Writers at OSU-Tulsa.
Christopher Priest is the groundbreaking author of the Black Panther series, made into a 2018 hit film. Priest is the first African-American writer and editor to work in the comic book industry and has over 39 years of writing, editing and publishing experience.
"It's huge - he's a huge guest. His career in comic books has been massive," said Dexter Nelson II, one of the organizers of the Tulsa Pop Culture Expo.
Priest will appear on a live episode of Words on Air, hosted by the Center for Poets & Writers at the Thomas K. McKeon Center for Creativity. The free event will be held from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. at 910 South Boston Avenue.
