Right from my 3 year old cousin to my 60 year old grandmother love comics. Comics have an universal appeal. They not just tell a story within a small frame but represent the story visually in a way that we all can relate to. Here are a couple of comics which I enjoyed reading recently and thought to share with you all.
PhD Comics:
Last year during a Graduate orientation ceremony that I had at my university I won a copy of the PhD comics book in a lucky draw. The author of the PhD comics was a Stanford PhD student Jorge Cham when he started this comic strip. The comic strip depicts the life of PhD students in a very “exaggerated” true and funny manner. Am sure every grad student can relate to the characters in the comic.
Here is the PhD comics website
Below is a couple of interesting comic strips that I took from the above site’s archive:
Cats with Hands:
This is a comic which was suggested by our professor of Artificial Intelligence. I love reading comics related to animals. And this one is really cute. If you have a liking for cats am sure you would love the comic strip.
Joe Martin the author of the series “Cats with Hands” in 2000 was recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records are the “Most Prolific Cartoonist“.
