Making Minicomics [Eroyn Franklin]

The minicomic is the most elemental form of the comic book. Its short-story structure makes it accessible to create and print for any writer. This class walks you through formal qualities of minicomics—story building, creating characters and worlds, and drawing techniques—so that students can create a minicomic and learn how to distribute it once it’s done. Some exercises will generate work that will be compiled into a class anthology, and everyone will walk away with copies of each book created in the class.
