Will has transformed one of our galleries into a world of legends and super heroes, bound to inspire comic book fans of all ages, budding illustrators, and anyone who dares to dream big!

The parade of characters includes Celtic Warrior: The Legend of Cú Chulainn, Spider-man, Black Widow and Thor among others from Marvel comics. Come and witness supernatural feats of strength, ferocious battles, and tragic destinies as Will transform our Seen and Heard play-space with a cast of larger-than-life heroes.

In addition to the exhibition, there will be opportunities of chance encounters with the artist whilst he is creating a mural over the month.

During October, Will Sliney and 5 selected apprentice illustrators will be working on a comic based on "The Hound"- a new Cork superhero - seen for the very first time in the exhibition. The course will detail how comics are made and put the apprentices through their paces from the layouts to final stage of drawing a comic book.
