Besides teaching, educator Chris Landvick has another passion: comic books. And he thinks there is a comic book for everyone – you just have to look in the right place. In his TEDxLFHS talk, Chris teaches you how to find the perfect comic book for your tastes, and why the comic book is a great medium for storytelling.

Growing up, Chris loved looking at the comic books being sold at convenience stores, but his parents never bought them. Chris was most fascinated with the X-men. The many characters and interesting designs caught his attention. It wasn’t until adulthood that Chris dove into his love for geek entertainment. He owns an extensive comic book collection and has decorated his bathroom with a Star Wars theme. Chris thanks the Ed Techs (Mrs. Grigg, Mr. Holmer, and Mr. Juliano) for allowing him to share his love of comic books and assisting him through the TEDx Talk process. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
