Comic Dissertation

by angela on November 19, 2008

We’re still busy celebrating Ph.D.-ville over at the Randall abode.  I’m so proud of Graham because I know how hard he worked to make this transition from one career to the next, and how much he gave up to in order to achieve his goal.  Congratulations, babe!

While we’re basking in the post-dissertation glow, I submit to you one of the most page turning - and accessible - doctoral dissertations I’ve encountered. In October 2006, Judy Han spent 24 Hour Comics Day converting her 1,000+ page doctoral dissertation on “global imaginaries and evangelical capitalism(s), with a focus on contemporary South Korean/Korean American missionaries” into a 24 page comic entitled “Missionary.”

No word yet on Graham’s plans for his topoisomerase/DNA simulation comic, but it’ll be limited to 10 nano-seconds. (Ba-da-bum!)
