An introduction to the medium and tools of comics storytelling focusing on the environment and environmental issues. Students will read a wide range of comics and relevant academic scholarship to explore the creative possibilities of this storytelling medium.

In addition, students will have an option to create narratives through their own short-form comics or focus on written assessment only. No artistic ability is required to succeed in this course.
