Dan DiDio, former co-publisher of DC, will teach a weekly online course for The Kubert School this fall.
"From Concept to Sale" begins Oct. 1 and runs through the remainder of 2020. According to the course description, DiDio will teach "how to develop and present your ideas for a character, book, or series, to publishers or other media outlets. During these weekly sessions, you will discuss and work towards constructing a series bible and a story concept pitch that will generate opportunities in a crowded marketplace."
"As a long time fan and supporter of The Kubert School, I'm excited to be involved and contributing to their online program," DiDio said.
DiDio was co-publisher of DC with Jim Lee from 2010 until he was removed from the post in February. He joined the company in 2002 as Vice President, Editorial and later was promoted to Vice President, Executive Editor.
A three-year technical school based in Dover, New Jersey, The Kubert School was founded by acclaimed cartoonist Joe Kubert in 1976. Its curriculum focuses on all facets of sequential and narrative art, and it recently introduced an online studies program. A number of comics professionals are Kubert School alumni and instructors, including Tom Mandrake, Amy Chu, Fernando Ruiz, Andy Kubert, Lee Weeks, Kim DeMulder and Jan Duursema.
