Scott McCloud, a renowned comic book writer, has done much to change the world and consumption of comics. He defines comics as “sequential art” and thus, traces them all of the way back to the ancient Egyptians. McCloud has taken the chance to write a comic about comics and use this form to make his points. He asks very interesting questions about the general and specific representations of people, the space between the frames, the use of color, and the representation of time. Through his comic he states that time and space in the world of comics are very closely linked, as well as time and motion. I really enjoyed reading McCloud’s comics and learned a lot about them, through them!
