Comics, comics and more comics

With science-fiction and other genre fiction as popular as it is, librarians who serve teens are frequently looking for a way to build on this interest. Once again School Library Journal has helped by providing a listing of genre comics with wide audience appeal. The sites listed here are available online, which is where many teens prefer to get their entertainment. One site will often lead to another, so fans can find hours of enjoyment whether their genre is science-fiction, romance, or gamer comics. The article might even provide a focus for a teen comics club devoted to sharing sites possibly even developing comic of their own. Every library has its share of teen patrons with talent for illustration and writing and comics offer a good outlet because of the flexibility of length and format. The possibilities are worth exploring.
