Panel 1: Barbara is teaching a children's literature class.
Student: How can you teach kids' lit and not like Twilight?
Barbara: That's a good question, scarf-wearing girl.
Panel 2: The screen now shows Edward from Twilight with a "no" sign over his face.
Barbara:
I appreciate children's literature for its imagination, its ability to
capture the zeitgeist, its subtle and intelligent methods of
challenging young minds.
Panel 3:
Barbara: Twilight has sparkly vampires and propels feminism backwards about a century.
Panel 4:
Student: So what's wrong with that?
Barbara: Unfortunately, I rest my case.
Alt-Text: I'm not sure you'll have noticed, but I'm not really going for "subtle" here.
