Cats in capes, space girls and pandas with powers; comics allow a kid's imagination to come to life in images and words. Learn how to turn ideas into characters, design worlds and how body language and expressions are used to tell a story.

Take a field trip to the Minneapolis Institute of Art for inspiration as well as learning about influential comic artists such as George Herriman (Krazy Kat), Fujiko (Doraemon), Luke Pearson (Hilda).
