More than a decade ago¸ Scott McCloud tore down the wall between high and low culture with Understanding Comics¸ a massive comic book about comics¸ linking the medium to such diverse fields as media theory¸ movie criticism¸ and web design. In Reinventing Comics¸ McCloud took fans to the next level¸ charting 12 different revolutions in how comics are generated¸ read¸ and perceived today. Now¸ in Making Comics¸ this artistic genius focuses his analysis on the art form itself¸ exploring the creation of comics¸ from the broadest principles to the most minute artistic details. In a voice that mixes dry humor and clear¸ concise instruction¸ McCloud’s cartoon narrator shows how to master the human condition through word and image in a brilliantly minimalistic way. Comic book devotees as well as the most uninitiated will marvel at this journey into a once-underappreciated art form.
