Bad to the Bone
Friday, February 14, 2025  2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Where have all the heroes gone? The traditional good guy has given way to complex anti-heroes who would have been the villains just a few decades ago. Are tragically flawed characters really needed or is it just cheap trick to add conflict? Is there still a place for the traditional "hero in a white hat" in modern stories?


Panelists:
