I haven't gotten around to mentioning it here — I don't tell you about most things I do and you should be grateful — but I've been writing for a publication called Nature Comics. This is a freebee educational comic published by the Educational Broadcasting System as a companion guide to Nature, a fascinating TV series produced by Thirteen/WNET in New York. The comic is distributed free to classrooms and other educational entities that request it and if you're a teacher, I think they'll just send you a pile to pass out to your students.
At the very least, everyone can download a PDF of the second issue from this page. You'll be especially impressed by the fine illustration work of Rick Veitch, who's drawn the stories I've written for the project and written some of his own, as well. I found out about this offer from Rick's website…where I also learned that the comic has been nominated for an Association of Educational Publisher's Distinguished Achievement Award in the graphic novels category. That sounds very impressive even though I don't know what that is.
