Use the document attached to this assignment to create a list of 5-10 people in the public eye you would consider for this project.
Review the names on your list and select one person about whom you know an interesting and significant story.  (Do some research to learn about an event from the person's life if necessary.)  Spend some time thinking about how to tell the story in a 5-10 panel PixtonEDU comic.
Open the planning document attached to this assignment, and fill in the details requested for at least 5 panels.  (You may use up to 10 panels if you need to.  In that case, just provide the requested information for as many of the panels as you need.)

The list and planning document are due this Friday, May 7.  When you have finished both the list and the planning document, submit this assignment.  You will see more information and another assignment posted next Monday with instructions about how to proceed with and finish the project.
