Dr. Harold Selesky has donated his collection of comic books to The University of Alabama Libraries Special Collections. Many of these comic books are now being featured in an exhibit in Special Collections in Mary Harmon Bryant Hall, titled “Saving the Universe One Panel at a Time: Heroes & Superheroes of the Bronze Age of Comic Books and Beyond.” Comic books from the Bronze Age (1970-1985) often included darker narratives than those of the Silver Age (1955-1970), sometimes eschewing the approval of the Comics Code Authority to do so.

The exhibit runs through December 2015.
