Intentional SW1 change
Piskel Micro Animation stays between Comics and Graphic Design. Its superhero theme makes it a useful bridge from comic storytelling into visual-design work. Its current module title still labels it Enrichment, so teachers should decide whether to use it before the graphic-design unit.
