Hi all, I've just finished editing a new comic book aimed at introducing kids (ages 8+) to programming concepts, called Super Scratch Programming Adventure. It's a comic that shows kids how to create (and build on) simple, playable videogames in Scratch, the visual programming language from MIT's Media Lab.
