The Sequential Artist's Bible
+ Heavily Illustrated Essays about How Comics and Sequential Art Communicate
+ A Must for all Comic writers & artists!
Hey, why not take the analogy further? Scott McCloud's 'Understanding Comics' is the Sequential Artist's New Testament... and Fredric Wertham's 'Seduction of the Innocent' is the Sequential Artist's 'Protocols of the Elders of Zion'.
'Understanding Comics' didn't exactly make 'Comics & ...

Anime Studio 5 Win/Mac 14 reviews
Windows, Mac OS X | Smith Micro Software Inc., 2006
I find this product very worth the money.
+ Does what it says it will do, but what is that exactly?
+ A great choice
The one thing that is not made clear in most reviews of this anime creator is that first: The animation software is for people that have worked with some kind of animation software before or have worked with such products as PhotoShop. And those folks should understand a bit of the basic premise ...

100 Bullets Vol. 1: First Shot, Last Call31 reviews
Brian Azzarello
Vertigo, 2000
great new series
+ Sucks you in like a black hole.
+ Noir in a Graphic Novel
100 Bullets is a great new series, though I've read the books not included here, and I think it might have been better as a mini-series. Nice artwork, interesting and original storyline, though not one that coudl be continued indefinitely. Still, good stuff, if only the first volume. Legendary.

Ok, i'm assuming you know a bit about sin city, so i'll simply say, these books are awesome. I just love the way it's written from the main character's point of view, and how they narrate the story. The drawings are excellent too. Very stylish, almost completely black and white, with the most ...

+ ALAN MOORE'S WRITING FOR COMICS VOL1
+ Not what you expect, but better than you'd guess
Worth it. I am a striving comic creator who works and won't have time to read as much as I did this last summer. If you're a striving comic creator this is great book about the medium not because it teaches you how to write, but because it invokes you to create. The things I already knew that Moore ...
