Our web site of math comic strips was developed for one primary reason...to offer a way to help teach math to our nation's children. In this fast-paced world of television, video games and other distractions, we knew that this would prove to be a formidable challenge. Math is complicated and boring to too many children, and well, too much like "work". We realized that we would need a way to make learning math exciting and fun.
The format of a comic book is ideal for a number of reasons. To begin, comics have stood the test of time. Long before there was a 24 hour cartoon network there was the humble comic. Children would be huddled under their blankets late at night, comic book and flashlight in hand. Comics are a very visual learning tool, portable, requiring no attachments or electricity, or strange as it may sound, even an internet connection.
Our flagship item, we are happy to announce, will be published soon. It is an educational math comic called "The Innovative Dr. Knowledge". Dr. Knowledge is not a classic "Super Hero"...he is not from another planet and has not been bitten by an insect. Having said this, he does have some incredible math skills. He was able to acquire these skills by doing his math homework and studying other subjects over the years. He is able to utilize these skills by solving some incredible crimes and problems, and our hope is that children around the world will follow his adventures and become motivated to study into this world of math.
When Bobby was a young boy, he lost his mother. He was bullied at school and had a rather difficult childhood in many respects. His father decided that he would take his son on a trip to try to encourage and motivate him. As fate would have it, Bobby ended up on an island, by himself. He had to learn how to fend for himself, and it was on this island that he found he had a love for math. He needed these math skills to resolve all the problems that the island was going to throw his way.
When he eventually made his way back to civilization, he pursued his math education on a more formal level eventually earning a PhD in Mathematics at a prestigious university. Using his math abilities he was able to acquire great wealth, and answer a calling in his life...to use math to solve crimes and problems and make the world a better place.
Our sincere desire is that you will enjoy reading our comic, "The Innovative Dr. Knowledge". Please join us in helping to promote math education to our nation's children. They are going to need math skills in order to compete for the jobs of the future. Math comic strips may never be the same again... - 29955
