What happened today - Absolutely True Comics
We also reviewed the "Student Guide to Absolutely True Comics" to remind ourselves of what the different draft numbers mean (that is, draft 1.0, draft 2.0, etc.)
If you weren't in class today, you should check all the upcoming deadlines in the calendar and make sure you have them in your own calendar or planner. You should also read through the Student Guide to Absolutely True Comics.
