    IAT 100 using Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud. It's a comic book that talks about comic books.

    Back in Fall 2007, people taking ENG 383 were reading some awesome comics such as The Dark Knight Returns.

    It was back then, now the poor saps taking ENG 383 were reading some pretty lame stuff.

    That is so cool. By the way, a friend of mine is taking ENGL105 this semester and the course materials consist of 11 comic books. I heard for this one course, but I can't actually remember which, students get to study Watchmen by Alan Moore.

    In ENGL 101 we read two graphic novels. Depends on the theme for the semester though.

    I'm currently enrolled in this class. Some of the comics are actually entertaining and interesting to read while the others are just plain odd. 20% final, hoping that it will be a breeze.
