Course Description

Overview

Do you have an idea for a graphic novel that really excites you? Maybe you've even drawn some concept art and character designs! But when it comes to actually crafting a story that will keep readers hooked... where do you begin?

This class will give you a basic foundation upon which you can build any number of stories, of any genre. We will cover the basics of storytelling as well as how to plan and outline your comic. By the end, you will have all the tools you need to turn your idea into the map your project needs!

I go by MissMarck on most social media, and I'm the creator of the webcomic DAZER AND ELEANOR on Webtoons. 2 years ago, I made the decision that I wanted to dive into the world of graphic novels. Since then, I've learned so much about producing a webcomic, and I'm excited to have this opportunity to share it all with you!
