Comics Generator

I have seen a lot of Christian educators and seminary teachers use comic strips to illustrate points they are trying to bring across. While this is an important resource to us, I want to encourage you to create comics.

There are a few websites which allow you to do this:

Strip Generator
Garfield Comic Generator

Created in Gnomz Comic Generator

My favourite site is Strip Creator (actually the site has been used to create some very blasphemous comic strips involving Jesus and God, so be warned. Also, if you are working with kids, please speak to their parents first), but it is quite powerful and its free. An example of a strip I created for discussion is posted below:

Here is another site to help you with some principles on creating comics strips

WHAT ADDITIONAL BENEFITS ARE THERE TO USING YOUR OWN COMIC STRIP GENERATORS RATHER THAN USING OTHERS' COMIC STRIPS? WHAT OTHER EDUCATIONAL APPLICATIONS CAN YOU FIND IN A TOOL LIKE STRIP CREATOR?
