Physics in Information Comics — •Heike Elisabeth Juengst — FHWS Würzburg

Information comics are comics designed primarily for knowledge transfer. They can be funny or serious, long or short, and can be found all over the world. And, of course, they can cover any topic.

However, information comics about physics are not very common. "The Physics of Superheroes" by Kakalios is justly popular but does not deal with information comics at all. Chemistry, on the other hand, is a popular topic for information comics.

The reason for this imbalance is a mystery and cannot be solved in this presentation. Information comics presenting topics from physics will be shown and the audience will be encouraged to produce their own information comics for teaching purposes (and for fun).
