"Get an insider's look at creating comics with an award winning cartoonist"--Container.

From political cartoons and the newspaper funny pages to emotionally resonant biographies and multi-volume superhero epics, the scope of comics is a broad one. While many people may still hold onto the outdated idea that comics are silly or childish, the truth is comics comprise a multi-billion-dollar industry with an immense, world-spanning fanbase of all ages and from all walks of life. Whether you consume them as syndicated strips on cheap newsprint or as serialized arcs in glossy, collector's edition volumes (often labeled 'graphic novels'), comics have something to offer everyone. So, how are comics made? What are the rules of the medium? How would a writer or an illustrator -- or both -- begin creating their own comics? These and other questions are what you will explore in the 12 inspiring lessons of How to Create Comics. Taught by Peter Bagge, a cartoonist and award-winning comics creator, these lessons will show you how comics are made and why they have become so enduringly successful.
