the many aspects of the comics creation process, from scripting and
storytelling, to layouts, panel placement and fluidity, thumbnailing,
the basics of creating the finished art, and traditional and nontraditional

theory and history. Class participants can produce stories individually
or collaboratively, culminating in a completed mini-comic, ready to
copy and distribute to shops. The class will be taught by members
