“Graduates on the course will study
the impact of comics on the worlds of art, literature and popular culture. The university said students with an interest in the creative side of comics -
as a writer or artist - would be able to enhance their practical skills, with
workshops on script writing and artwork. And a PhD in comic studies will also
be available to those who have completed the MLitt course. Dr Murray added: "Employability
is an important consideration for any postgraduate program, and it lies at the
heart of what we aim to do with this course.”
Oh and you have to buy your own bags and boards, and we don't cover minis, Sunday comics or trades. Nor will any Mt. Dew be allowed in class.
"Well, it seems that you have few skills and no experience... but, since you're into really into comic books and have a Masters to prove it, welcome to the team."
