Ok, I don't know about you all, but I've always loved Archie comics. I was floored to find this resource today.
This is an ESL podcast complete with comic, audio, transcript, and "learning guide". I think it's pretty neat.
There is also an option to see the Spanish version of the comic, which might be interesting to the Spanish teachers out there (though no other resources are available in Spanish). I suppose that you could create a Spanish version of this resource. Who knows, you might even be able to get permission to use these from the company.
