The Kubert School holding an open house April 21

Lauded as premiere school for aspiring comic artists for decades, the Kubert School has mentored dozens of today's top comic creators and now it's opening its doors for the next generation. On April 21, the Kubert School is hosting an open house at its Dover, New Jersey location from 1 to 4 p.m. Among the promised features are guided tours of the school and facility, demonstrations by its teachers, and one-on-one time with founder Joe Kubert and his two sons Andy and Adam Kubert. If that wasn't enough, there's refreshments, raffles and giveaways.

For decades, the Kubert School has taught legions of comic creators, and even comic fans might remember the school's fun advertisements in the backs of comics over the years. In addition to offering full college-like daily courses, the school also does correspondence courses and weekend sessions for those who can't attend full time.

This open house is an ideal opportunity for any would-be comics creator, or even just an overzealous comics fan like myself, to get an inside look at what it takes to make comics. I hear they'll even admit robots!
