History Comics Recommendations?
Hey
I want to assign some very nerdy history comics to my class, as a means of introducing scholarship to them, like, "figure out what these jokes are."
Aside from Hark! A Vagrant, do you know any other funny comics dealing with very nerdy subjects that a person would either have to be highly educated or do research to "get"?????
topics
romanticism
poetry
frankenstein
sigmund freud
the bible
ancient greece
that sort of thing
