What is a superhero without a colorful costume to fight crime in? Today, we're looking at the visual shorthand that is COLOR which artists use to tell us who is a good guy and who is a bad guy. Superheroes are generally sporting costumes with the primary colors red, blue and yellow, whereas villains are usually seen in the secondary colors green, purple, and orange.

We're also talking about what black and white comics can bring to the table, and perhaps what color inside of comic books distract us from.

Headcanon is a show wherein we brainstorm ideas and theories about our favorite comic book characters, stories, and worlds! With no prior research or formal script, Headcanon presents topics surrounding comics in a fun and relaxed fashion.
