I’m totally excited to announce that on October 1st Media Meltdown will not only be landing in bookstores across Canada but also available as a free download to anyone who wants it.
We’re not talking just a few chapters or a sample of rough work, it’s a FULL free download of the final printed edition for you to enjoy, keep and share. You’ll have to wait until October 1st to download your free copy, but for now you can preview the full graphic novel and get started on the adventure. If you like what you read and want your own papery copy, then head over to Orca Books and fill up your cart.
At the heart of Media Meltdown is a battle for control of the messages we all see and hear every day. It’s a struggle between young upstarts who want to get the truth out and the power holders who like things just the way they are.
I think it’s a fun story (I wrote it, so I am a bit biased), but it’s also a very important message that is crucial to the ongoing struggle for control the media that we all own. To help this message reach the most eyes and ears, myself , Mike Deas and the great folks at Orca decided to release Media Meltdown into the mediascape for free to see where it goes and who finds it and in hopes that it inspires other media makers to jump in and take part in the meltdown.
Enjoy!
What a great resource for Language Arts teachers! I can’t wait to download my copy tomorrow, especially since I use comics quite a bit in my classroom.
Thanks!
Glad to hear it’ll be of use to you Eric! I’m very excited to see what great things educators do with Media Meltdown in their classes. Enjoy the download.
Thanks for the download.
You’re welcome Jane! I hope you, your colleagues and your students enjoy the adventure.

i believe this is a great project
