Recently, the Twin Cities has seen the emergence of an underground comics movement all its own. Brought on by developments in popular culture and DIY printing technology, traditional comics have morphed from stories about superheroes and villains, to graphic novels addressing personal world views.

Hot Ink: Comic Art in Minnesota features the inked panels, sketchbooks, graphic novels, and mini comics of emerging and nationally-known artists, all developing an American medium for a new century.
