Comics in the Classroom

Since 1989, the Smithsonian Institution has published Comics in the Classroom, a single-issue educational comic that explores the history and art of the American comic strip. Curated by scholar M. Thomas Inge, the issue features work from legendary cartoonists including Bill Holman, Charles Schulz, and Chester Gould. It serves as a concise, museum-quality primer on the medium's cultural significance.
