You’ve mentioned the use of cinematic visual language isn’t always your thing in comics, which I totally understand. I’m just curious if you had an example of a book or artist that utilized the mediums potential beyond that style? “The Stroll” by Dan Clowes is an example that came to my mind
Haha. I think my opinion started probably with the ultimates always going for that cinematic feel. Minimalist dialogue, no thought ballons or sound effects. I’m not opposed to big dynamic art. Maybe I need to reassess my pov?
@ Oh I wouldn’t say that, I may have come off more critical than I meant to haha. Let me rephrase. I guess what I wanted to know is what “comic book’y”elements are most effective to you, and is there a book or artist you think uses them effectively?
