Comic Book Workshops by the Comic Book Guy

I hold workshops, perfectly suited for
children of all ages (children aged 13 and over gain the most from the workshops, however), teaching them the magic of comic books.
How they are written and produced; using examples in print form, video and online resources; and allowing the
participants input on creating a story in the correct script
formats.

MISSION

* To create a workshop to promote the comic industry and to promote the reading of comic books.
* To be both informative, instructive and entertaining, through the use of examples of various styles of comic, artwork, and video & online resources.

Comic books are ideal as learning aids for children of all ages. They are easy to read and understand, perfect for the child who is learning to read or those with difficulties reading. Comics are also wonderful teaching aides in other areas, where kids can learn good over evil, right from wrong, courage and strength; and they encompass every genre imaginable, for both children and adults, ranging from the traditional superhero, to romance, war, western, crime, science-fiction, fantasy and much more.

Let me help the children of your area connect to comic books in a way they otherwise may not have an opportunity to. Let me show them the joy and magic of comics, also the process of creating comics, through the stages of plotting, writing (particularly the correct script formatting), pencilling, inking, lettering and printing.

Allow me to bring the magic of comics to your library or school!
