As I work on a writing project about creating graphic novels, I needed to create a graphic persona who will help explain things. On the TV show CSI , I and some friends used to call Captain Brass “Captain Exposition”, because he was frequently stuck with reciting the recap of either the case or (at the half-way mark of the show) the episode up to that point. But I couldn’t repeat that. But it occured to me that since this book was about helping people learn the ins-and-outs of graphic novels, the character would be a teacher: so why not make him a professor.
So that’s how Professor Exposition was born. At least, he’s a cheerful fellow.
