Comic books may simply seem like adventurous stories for young boys, but Michael Uslan joins Aalia to shed light on the mythological history behind these stories and the impact they have on society. Uslan is the executive producer and originator of the multi-billion dollar Batman film franchise, which has undeniably influenced modern culture (5:20). Aalia and Uslan discuss the concept of good versus evil both in comic books and in real life (9:02). Additionally, Uslan addresses the importance of funneling negative responses into motivation (10:03). Like Aalia, Uslan is motivated to curate content that empowers, especially for those who have been underrepresented in comic culture, including women (12:38), Blacks (16:00), and people with mental health struggles (21:21). Tune into this enlightening episode to hear more about maintaining authenticity and relevance in the film industry (32:12)!
