Review of 'Reinventing Comics: How Imagination and Technology Are Revolutionizing an Art Form' on 'Storygraph'

4 stars

Scott McCloud's second book about comics isn't quite as brilliant as the first one, but he still manages to get a number of interesting points across. The book's biggest fault (and McCloud himself has seen this in later years) is that it relies on the internet being the next big publishing revolution. That may still happen, but as of this moment, it doesn't look like it.

To make up for the shortcomings of this book, McCloud has published some additional chapters on his homepage. All of these are worthwhile, too.
