Communicating with Comics

As well as being artifacts of popular culture, comics are powerful tools for education, political persuasion, exploration of personal identity, and medical narrative. Iconic graphic communication can overcome linguistic and emotional barriers, as well as audience demographics. After establishing a foundation in comic book theories and visual rhetoric, this course will critically discuss examples with varying communicative intentions and narrative functions. Students create their own comic script and pages.
