Hello All!
Reflecting on the first class, I heard a number of different thoughts and ideas as to what comics were, which is what I expected. Comics seems to be an exhaustively expansive medium with a multitude of styles and genres, mostly because it tends to be the combination of two other exhasutively expansive mediums: Art and Writing. I thought about how I already read Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics: The Invisble Art, and how much there really is to pay attention to, discuss, and evaluate in basically any comic. Additionally, when Watchmen was brought up, I definitely remembered making the same comments Jeff made about the movie after I had seen it: there was definitely things from the novel that could not be recreated in another medium. This is because Comics brings a different form of expression to the proverbial Artistic Table.
