Abstract
Drawing from translation and sequential art theories as well as the author’s experience teaching Spanish through translation and comics, this presentation offers practical exercises teachers can use for their heritage and non-heritage students. Comics are helpful to deepen skills like proper use of register, tone, cognates, and cultural equivalents.
