Next week is Will Eisner Week, an annual celebration every March celebrating comics, graphic novel literacy, free speech, and the legacy of Will Eisner.

Considered one of the most influential comic book artists of all time, Will Eisner. He was one of the earliest cartoonists to work in the American comic book industry, he popularized the term “graphic novel,” and the Eisner Awards, prizes given for creative achievement in American comic books, were named after him.

You can celebrate Will Eisner Week by starting your own comic book. We’ll help you get started with a downloadable comic template. If you can’t print your own we’ll be happy to print one for you. Give Kids World a call at 708-867-2298.

Complete the comic with your own characters and words. Take a picture of your creation and post it on social media. Use the hashtags #willeisnerweek and #ikecomic.
