Here is one that I got at MeCAF.
Title: O P Q: Adventures In Substitute Teaching
Publisher: Anne Thalheimer
Date: 2012
Writer: Anne Thalheimer
Artist: Anne Thalheimer
Autobiographical minicomic about the artist's experiences as a substitute teacher, covering for pretty much all grades and subjects.
I loved the facial expressions in this. Thalheimer has some great visual reactions to all of the situations she gets into, whether it be bait-and-switch assignments at school, adorable preschoolers, obnoxious middle-schoolers, or having to teach gym class.
As a teacher myself, I could appreciate a lot of the situations described in this comic. I also learned some things about public school subbing that were new to me.
There were some great anecdotes, especially toward the end, and I would have love to see even more details of the day-to-day interactions with the students.
