Graphic Novel Project

Hi all.  I have decided I'm not going to make you rewrite the summary, unless it does not meet the requirements of the rubric. You still need to add it to the final project, but lets save some paper, and some hands from getting tired of writing.

Here is your timeline for completing the project:

Monday, April 30th: Summary due
Thursday, May 3rd: Character with biography
Monday, May 7th: Summary, Character with biography, and Story board all due stapled together with the rubric.
