I'm not really sure exactly what I am going to be working with yet but something along the lines of iconography. Maybe a question like, how is iconography used in comics, by the author, in order to give the reader a better understanding of the text? And then since I will be focusing on comics, I will talk mainly about American Born Chinese and McCloud's Text. That's pretty much all I have so far. Any suggestions would be great!

Good starting ideas Casey. I'd begin by choosing a specific panel or set of panels that you'd like to work with (the smaller the selection the better to avoid generalization). Study these panels careful and consider what ideas/icons emerge and how these icons contribute to our interpretation of the text.
