Oooh! No wonder it's collectible! It was done by Scott McCloud, famous for Zot! And Understanding Comics! I have many issues of Zot somewhere stored away as well as the first trade paperback and a copy of Understanding Comics. If you can get your hands on any of his stuff, as long as it's not outrageously overpriced, DO IT!
Quote:[i]Understanding Comics received praise from notable comic and graphic novel authors such as Art Spiegelman, Will Eisner, Alan Moore,Neil Gaiman and Garry Trudeau (who reviewed the book for the New York Times), and was called "one of the most insightful books about designing graphic user interfaces ever written" by Apple Macintosh co-creator Andy Hertzfeld.[1] Although the book has prompted debate over many of McCloud’s conclusions,[2] its discussions of "iconic" art and the concept of "closure" between panels have become common reference points in discussions of the medium.[/i]
