The Word On The Street has been renowned for the quality and diversity of its event programming and our 2025 festival promises to offer the best so far. Check out our schedule for Saturday, September 20, 2025!
ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM! Doom’s secret – and how he’s been able to win so much, so often – has been revealed. But how do you best the no-win scenario? The Fantastic Four have an idea – but it’ll take them to the frozen depths of Antarctica, deep into Doom’s secret lair, where they’ll face their greatest challenge yet. It’s Doom vs. the Fantastic Four in a way you’ve never seen before…and to the winner goes the freedom of an entire planet!
Ryan North’s recent work includes the non-fiction books How To Take Over The World and How To Invent Everything, the semi-fictional graphic novel adaptation of Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five, and the so-far-fictional series Dinosaur Comics, Squirrel Girl, and Fantastic Four. He’s an internationally-recognized multiple-New-York-Times-bestselling author whose work has been translated into 16 different languages, and as a linguist, he’s very happy about that. He lives in Toronto, where he once messed up walking his dog so badly it made the news.
