Kirsten Cappy of Curious City arranged for a Korean television crew (MBC Global Media)to interview Jay Piscopo as part of a documentary they are making about the legend of Hong Kil Dong -- the Korean Robinhood. Check out photos at this link. Check out a short video clip of the interview here. The crew came to the United States to interview Anne Sibley O'Brien, creator of the first graphic novel in America about this classic Korean hero. Once here, the film crew's mission expanded to include the history of the art of American comics and graphic novels and Jay was invited to be interviewed on that topic. Jay is the author and illustrator of the all ages graphic novel series The Undersea Adventures of Capt'n Eli.
