The purpose of the course is to present the way in which Israeli existence is perceived in its many shades through comics.

The Israeli comics created before the establishment of the state and up to the present day, reflect the values of society and its content from every possible angle: a nation under siege, army and security, social stereotypes, and the place of the individual in Israeli existence.

During the class, comic series published in children's newspapers, before and after the establishment of the state, in daily newspapers, and in books (the graphic novel) will be presented.

At the same time, we will host seven comic book artists from different sectors.
