It has long been recognized that theory is difficult to teach and even harder for students to grasp, and I am thrilled to see that writers and publishers are starting to think of new ways to handle the subject. --Allison Timbs, Campbellsville University CrimComics is a very cool, visually striking comic book that effectively introduces criminological theory to undergraduates. It is really clever in its pedagogical approach, balancing concise and accurate exposition with interesting historical vignettes. --Paul Kaplan, San Diego State University I think students will be thrilled to have CrimComics, something fresh and original that has been adapted to their generation of learners. --Anna Devita, University of North Carolina, Charlotte
