Join StoryCode Singapore and Super Cool Books (http://www.supercoolbooks.com/) for a fast and fun comic strip hacking session.

You'll get a free creative kit to make your own "Captain Cardboard vs Bruce Boh" comic strip. We'll show you how to conceptualise and draft your own five-panel story, and then share this on social media so you can engage new readers right away.

You'll experience hands-on story prototyping and lean digital/social media publishing, so you can apply this to your own projects. Note: For maximum exposure, all content should be family friendly.

This is the second "Captain Cardboard vs Bruce Boh" session co-hosted by StoryCode Singapore. For more information, check out the StoryCode Singapore page on Medium:
