Very nice list, I tried each one of them on you suggestion. I was looking for something not necessarily kid friendly but rather social friendly, I mean no swear words or obscenity, but it should sustain interest of young teens and get them engaged in political satire cartoons etc etc. Pixton was my favorite in your list, it has the ability to adjust each character. But I found http://www.debate365.com to be more, modern and facebook ready.

Toonlet does not seem to be kid friendly. There are swear words in the comic being showcased on the front page right now (not sure if it’s dynamically updated).

Thanks for the great lists! I love using comic strips with students. I appreciate the categorization and explanation of each one as well.

Had a lot of problems with Comiqs on a recent assignment for preservice teachers. Crashes, work not saved, computer lockups.

Pixton worked well, though.

Hi Larry,

My favourite is ToonDoo from your list. It seems really kid friendly and relatively easy to use. They are proposing to simplify the interface, for example it doesn’t tell you easily how to make a book, but it can be done. Create a cartoon book

Larry,

Good stuff as always. I just wanted to point out that i found an inappropriate picture with Bubblr pretty quickly. A search on the keyword sex and the first pic was a naked woman. Just thought I’d let you know.

This is a great list, and I use comics with my students all the time now. It’s a different way to get at learning. I recognize a few on your list, but not all. So, once again, you have given me things to think about.
