In \u003cem\u003eReinventing Comics\u003c\/em\u003e, McCloud took this to the next level, charting twelve different revolutions in how comics are generated, read, and perceived today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Now, in \u003cem\u003eMaking Comics\u003c\/em\u003e, McCloud focuses his analysis on the art form itself, exploring the creation of comics, from the broadest principles to the sharpest details \u003cem\u003e(like how to accentuate a character's facial muscles in order to form the emotion of disgust rather than the emotion of surprise.)\u003c\/em\u003e And he does all of it in his inimitable voice and through his cartoon stand-in narrator, mixing dry humor and legitimate instruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e McCloud shows his reader 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBio: Scott McCloud has been writing and drawing comics professionally since 1984. His first series, \u003cem\u003eZot!\u003c\/em\u003e, garnered multiple nominations in the prestigious Harvey and Eisner awards. His book \u003cem\u003eUnderstanding Comics\u003c\/em\u003e was a New York Times Notable book for 1994, and has since been translated into over 16 languages.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harper Collins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44890248675379,"sku":"oec1789849543712","price":17.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/5828\/7923\/files\/making-comics-by-scott-mccloud_1.jpg?v=1789849547","url":"https:\/\/equestrianclad.shop\/products\/making-comics-by-scott-mccloud","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
