FROM THE TAINO NATION TO THE BOOGIE DOWN BRONX





Ivan Velez is currently working on the biggest project of his life The Ballad of Wham Kabam, which again pushes boundaries by creating a series of interconnected books that tell the story of America’s multicultural past through the tropes of the superhero genre.

THE BALLAD OF WHAM KABAM! is a series of six interconnected comic books that tell the story of America’s multicultural history—from the subjugation of the indigenous to slavery, from the Civil Rights movement to today’s pop culture—using the tropes and style of the classic superhero genre. In our official comic book past, all the heroes were white Americans. Even as times changed and more diversity was included, the characters created in mainstream comics were often stereotyped or weaker than the main White characters. Each book will explore history, not as it was recorded in ”official” American pop culture, but through the experiences of America’s diverse and often oppressed families. THE BALLAD OF WHAM KABAM! creates a new multicultural mythology that aims to contradict and subvert the traditionally exclusive history of American comic books.
