overrated scott mccloud's understanding comics is overrated. but damn does it actually make a lot of sense.

he explains a lot of things that comes to storytelling and paneling and angles. ranging from various historical comics and some of the evolution through time. most important (to me) he mentions in his book is the different ways of telling a story from "panel" to "panel". panels is a word used loosely since it ranges from a whole page, half page, a wall, a web click away, a web scroll away. i don't have the book with me right now but he explains in details six ways of telling a story. i'll edit this post with that explanation later.
