Comics as thinking. Eisner winner. Unflattening from HarvardUP (http://bit.ly/1vENIO7). Former Detroiter/NYer/YYC/now assoc prof SFSU-Comics Studies!
Re-reading stories from Batman’s year one in part prep for my superhero class, and impressed how much time Batman spends thinking about safe places to park his car…
2/? The rest of the pages to the comic. I had more I would’ve done with more time, but perhaps an expanded version down the line… again all printable shareable off my site…
Woohoo! Comic syllabus for my superhero class is live and students were geeked! It was a mammoth effort to make it but so worth it to be able to give to them! Pleased & excited for the term! And you can have your own too - all on my site for printing, sharing! 1/?

Ok, one page of my Superhero class syllabus drawn!! (this is p2 of 8...) Umm, I got a bit obsessive here - hopefully the rest of the pages won't take as long as I don't have many days eft here... But I had an idea for the page and I had to see it through. Onward!
After 3 years, I have FINISHED this chapter on the origin of the universe - a circuitous journey that has led to our home, in which that history of the universe is carried (and within all of us). This page recaps the chapter & points forward to the next - Life. Onward... #Nostos #Unflattening 2
The birth of our solar system - at last, closing up the penultimate page of this mammoth chapter exploring the origin of the universe in all its swirls of different sorts... It's been a long trip. And there is, to be sure, a lot going on on this page :)
Onward!
