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\n\n\u003cp\u003eNow, 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, like how to accentuate a character's facial muscles in order to form the emotion of disgust rather than the emotion of surprise. He does all of it in his inimitable voice and through his cartoon stand-in narrator, mixing dry humour and legitimate instruction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMcCloud shows his reader how to master the human condition through word and image in a brilliantly minimalistic way. Both comic book devotees and the uninitiated will marvel at this journey into a once-underappreciated art form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46508903596268,"sku":"9780060780944","price":36.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/17099333482209.jpg?v=1748755746","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/products\/making-comics-by-scott-mccloud-9780060780944","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
