Dekko Comics is supporting The University of Cambridge on a research project exploring comics and autism.

The study is looking to examine how autistic people can be supported to read, create and enjoy comics in a way that works for them. The 5 min survey will help researchers learn what needs to change and what is working well.

Who can take part?
The survey is for autistic adults (18+ years, clinical or self-diagnosis welcome) who enjoy reading or creating comics.

You can ask another person to fill in the survey for you if you need support.

The survey can also be completed by adults (non-autistic or autistic) who organise comics-related events or activities.

To fill out the 5 min survey and for more details about the project, visit:

Remember, remember the fifth of November, gunpowder, treason and plot. I see no reason why gunpowder treason should ever be forgot...

Creatively using rhyme and song to remember important information about a historic event, techniques which Dekko Comics and Dekko Video Courses explore in depth. Like our fun retelling of the Guy Fawkes gunpowder plot through the human body in Dekko Comics #9.

Have a safe and bright Guy Fawkes night!

Feeling the feedback:

“Just wanted to say how much we are enjoying your comics! I have Dekko at home for my own kids (who love it) and then take the copies into my year 3 class. There's always a bit of a scramble as they all want to read them during reading time. The class especially likes to see all the things they have been learning about in comic form. Keep up the good work.”
