About

Graphic novels such as Maus are fairly common lesson plan material. But superhero comics are underrepresented. Here at SuperLessons, I aim to change that. Comics are immensely important as a cultural phenomenon, a form of literature, and a part of history.

Each week on Monday, a new lesson plan based on one issue of a superhero comic will be posted. This lesson plan, directed at high school students, may contain literary analysis, historical context, or cultural context. Each lesson plan will include a list of Common Core standards that it meets.

Occasionally, I’ll post about the adventures of my own SuperKids, as well as reviews of the comics I’m currently reading.

Welcome to SuperLessons, and thanks for reading!
