I teach at Northeastern State University at Tahlequah, Oklahoma.  It's a summer course that is grounded in the literature basis of graphic novels, comics, manga, and animation. It also covers teaching with these materials for the K12 teacher as well as scripting, layout and design, Joseph Campbell and the Heroes Quest.  The final for the class is to create a 6 page comic book, and document its use in the classroom, literary base, and the research used to create the comic.  I had to take this summer off because of double bypass surgery, but its a great course to teach.
