Making Comics by Lynda Barry

4.0

This book is basically what would happen if a comic artist took their traditional course syllabus and wrote it down in a stream of consciousness combination of text and drawings. It’s a course syllabus as a longform comic strip (but not a graphic novel — too disjointed for that). So there were sections that were a little weird (like pages telling me I was going to have to move around the classroom a lot, because hello? I’m not in YOUR class and all classes are remote right now?). But I enjoyed paging through it nonetheless.
