Understanding Comics

In reading Understanding Comics, I realized that a lot more goes into making a comic than meets the eye.  It is an art form all of it's own and has grown more in depth throughout the years just like any other type of art.
Some main points discussed include:

• Sight can transfer to all of the senses; how a picture can express and evoke different emotions
• The use of icons to represent things
• The more simple an image is, the more people it relates to
• Humans see ourselves in everything
• Certain symbols have been universally accepted to represent something specific
