Task

As a crew of three people, your goal is to work together to create a comic book. Contemporary comic books you are used to seeing, such as X-men or Dragon Ball, are extremely long and ongoing, expanding to series after series. Because of the time constraint, you are not required to create a lengthy issue nor expected to create an entire series of comics. Instead, your goal is to create a short comic book issue, which is only one booklet. They style and form are completely up to you. You may plan to have a continuous story throughout your booklet or put together a bunch of individual comic strips, much like the Garfield or Peanuts issues. However, it is important to keep a common theme and have consistent characters throughout the strips yet keeping in mind of character development. There is no set page limit for the comic book since it varies depending on the style you choose. But keep in mind of the time restraint. Also, you are not restricted to have a final conclusion for the issue; instead, you can leave room in your story to be expanded upon. You are encouraged to continue on the storyline by creating additional issues in your spare time.
