Comic Book Reading?

One of the DE's on my team in TCY is failing 'Comic book reading', now how in the heck do you fail that class?

I think it's time the comic book reading teacher and I had a talk.

Perhaps you have to actually be able to read the comics and discuss them thoughtfully, or are you coaching Florida State?

I'm taking a class next semester than involves reading comics (though only Pulitzer Prize winning comics). I, however, am hoping not to fail.

You can win a Pulitzer Prize for comic books? I did not know that

Well, Art Spiegelman won one for his comic Maus about his parents survival of the holocaust, though I believe that's the only one to win such an award.

I actually read something about that a couple weeks ago. Apparently they are trying to make sure another comic book doesn't win again. From what I read it was seen as a huge embarrasment to the Pulitzer in some circles.
