Words in Boxes

Maré, one of my Graphic Novels Lit students, just told me about a comics challenge circulating online: create a pictureless comic, 4 – 40 panels. My first response was something like, “oh, pictureless comic, whatever,” and “panels aren’t pictures?” but then I had an idea and scribbled it on the wipe-off board. Here it is, after a short discussion with a few other students about whether late June counts as spring or summer. (”Summer sounds more robust, anyway,” said Amanda, and so that stood.)

I love this piece, but I wanted to mention that it seems to be formatted incorrectly in the post above. For me, it’s running off the edge and under the categories bar on the right.
