Proceedings of the 29th ACM international conference on Design of communication, 2011
We describe a "Comic Computing" method that integrates comics with a user interface for a creation and communication environment. Comics are used to tell stories by combining visual elements and sentences in a way that makes the story visually fun and interesting, and for this reason they are a popular and familiar medium for many people.

Comics and the law: jurisprudence with a comic face
2023This chapter interrogates comics' dalliance not merely with the law, but with legal theory, across three archetypal axes, predicated on fundamental assumptions about the enforcers' relationship with the forces of law in their respective societies. The first one is Superman, the external, unauthorised but unambiguous saviour.

Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Fun and Games, 2012
Seeing thru Walls is the first location-based comic story for the GPS environment. Current digital comics (web comics or online comics) are confined to a computer screen and use the affordances of digital medium in a limited way. Our aim is to produce an environment where we can tie sensory details of the physical environment to comic frames.
