Zines are cheaply printed and easily distributed forms of personal expression on any subject. The course will cover how to make a zine, why it has agency despite the accessibility and proliferation of information on digital platforms. Students will create and distribute their own zines using traditional and experimental methods.

Comics Studies Minor
Comics Studies Minor courses present students with an international, historical, and critical perspective on the art of editorial cartoons, comic books, and graphic novels, and how these forms communicate, inform, and emotionally engage their audiences. Students will be required to think outside of accustomed disciplinary boundaries, and to analyze and experiment with the interaction of both visual and linguistic systems of meaning.
