Abstract

A brief summary of the impact of Einstein's contribution concerning concepts like space, time, simultaneity, mass and energy is presented. Some of the main purposes of an education project through comics are sketched. The present work is inserted in this project and it shows a set of seven original comic strips which can be used by High School teachers to talk about one of Einstein’s revolutionary contributions to Modern Physics: Relativity.
