Review of 'Understanding Comics' on 'Storygraph'
5 Sterne
Absolutely one of my favorite books. I have read Understanding Comics, Reinventing Comics, and Making Comics multiple times each. Together, they have given me so much understanding regarding storytelling, perception of art, and comics as a medium.
For this book specifically: this is an essential read. The other two stand on their own as standalone explorations, but this first book provides a framework that link all three together in a sort-of-trilogy. It's only slightly a product of its time; some facts and figures are a bit outdated, but nothing is truly DATED in this...it really feels timeless.
Read all three. Then again, I'm a massive glutton for this kind of passionate knowledge dispensing and find it endlessly enjoyable.
