Actor Tim Blake Nelson, known for roles in “O Brother Where Art Thou” and most recently “The Lowdown,” is coming back to Tulsa with his new book, Superhero.

He will be at Congregation B’nai Emunah in Tulsa on Thursday for a book talk presented by Magic City Books and will also host a screening of his new film “On the End” at Circle Cinema on Friday.

He talks about his upbringing in Tulsa and filming in Oklahoma and why superhero movies reflect American society.

Daniel H. Wilson's latest book, Hole in the Sky, combines his knowledge as a scientist with his background growing up in northeastern Oklahoma as a Cherokee citizen.

In this episode of Okie Geek, he talks about writing sci-fi novels for the military, artificial intelligence, and Indigenous technology.

The first Oklahoma Comics Arts Festival is this Saturday at the Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center in downtown OKC.

Festival Director and comic book creator Robert Wilson IV has been working in comics and exhibiting at some of the world’s biggest comic book conventions like New York Comic Con for years.

For the Oklahoma Comics Art Festival, he’s hoping to take what he loves from his favorite conventions and bring in artists who have worked at DC, Marvel, and Scholastic alongside local talent.
