On today's episode, I have a chat with actor & Comic Connoisseur Michael Ajih. He shares the deep and positive impact that comics have had on his life, especially with the challenges that he has had with dyslexia & learning difficulties. Michael also shares with me the first comic superhero that piqued his interest, his favourite comic book character, how many comics he currently has in his collection, and a personal story behind a copy of 'Amazing Fantasy #15' (the first appearance of Spiderman).
Michael and I also discuss the importance of storytelling, representation, identity & diversity in comics & popular culture. We also talk about cosplay, and whom he would want to cosplay as, and also what his line-up would consist of in his version of 'The Sinister Six'. And of course, Michael shares with me the quote that continually inspires him.
In Michael's own words: 'I’m an actor, a content creator, cosplayer, presenter and most importantly a Comic Connoisseur. I discuss everything comic book related. I’m a huge comic book enthusiast.'
