Comics



Jake here. I've never read a comic book before in my life and last week my little brother lent me the above pictured comic book entitled Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud. It dissects comics in the most interesting way and explains why it is a viable form of fine art. I highly suggest reading it. And then I read the other above pictured collection of comics known as The Sandman. I've only gotten through volume one, but I plan on continuing the series as soon as volume two shows up at the library. In short, I have a new-found respect and love of awesome comics. But seriously, read the Scott McCloud book. It'll open your eyes in the most interesting way, even if you're not planning on reading any other comics.
