A review by bookstobarbells
Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art by Scott McCloud

Did not finish book. Stopped at 27%.

I found this book to be so overwhelming and busy. As an avid graphic novel reader, I thought I was going to enjoy this and get some takeaways to apply to a curriculum I’m writing. However, I found myself feeling alarmed at how much information was thrown onto each page. I wonder if it had been in color, rather than black and white, I would have found it less distracting? I’m not sure. I just know I cannot finish this book.
