Scratch That, Read This

Ever read some comic books back in the day or even still? Have you ever wondered why there are huge fan bases obsessed with comics of action heroes or manga? You'd think they would just prefer watching cartoons, right?
Well they actually aren't the same! Part of our class, COMM 146, readings, we recently read a good few chapters from Scott McCloud's "Making Comics"!
Basically, the whole book is comic form! Scott uses creative and imaginative ways to express the significant features in comics, such as the gutters (spaces between the panels in the strip)...
This book soaks the reader into the mind of a comic book artist... Check out this genius writer!
Guarantee: you will never look at comics the same.
