What is this series about?
In this series, I discuss various types of comics that I find to be very insightful on LinkedIn and Medium. So if there's a comic that you feel that I should take a closer look at, please let me know. :)
Why Comics?
Other than that I run an Asian/Asian-inspired graphic novel club in Memphis, TN, I love that comics do a beautiful job integrating words and images together in order to tell stories. Because comics don't always get the recognition that they deserve, I find it right to discuss them on social media especially. :D
