📚 bookblog: ❤️❤️❤️❤️🖤 for Meanwhile, by Jason Shiga
I read through this with kiddo this morning, inspired by our recent discovery of Shiga’s new Adventuregame Comics. I was surprised by how little I loved it. Don’t get me wrong: it’s an amazing concept, an interesting story, and it deserves the praise it gets from folks like Gene Luen Yang,Scott McCloud, and others. However, revisiting it after his newer work in this subgenre, I think he does better with Adventuretime Comics!
📚 bookblog: Understanding Comics (❤️❤️❤️❤️🖤)
I’ve wanted to read this book before—I believe I read the whole thing once in high school, and we read a portion of it in a French Civ class before discussing the Bayeux Tapestry. I recently saw it at the library and decided to give it another go.
Because I took a while to get started, the due date snuck up on me, and I had to rush through most of it rather than give it the critical read it deserves.
