Crying shame
That's a phrase to describe {{my feelings}} that I cannot get pictures to post here on the blog these days. Maybe I should write blogger.com and see if the engineers can fix things up.
Because I would really like you to see the amazing talent of David Mack when I post this.

In Understanding Comics (1993) Scott McCloud took Eisner's term sequential art, equated it with the medium of comics, and defined both thus: "juxtaposed pictorial and other images in deliberate sequence, intended to convey information and/or to produce an aesthetic response in the viewer"[3]; this definition excludes single-panel illustrations such as The Far Side, The Family Circus, and most political cartoons from the category, instead classifying those as cartoons.

Amazon's site doesn't have a pic of the book cover, at all, but it's interesting to see the other books that people buy when they get Understanding Comics.

William Irwin Thompson maintains that the new spirituality will grow out of the comics and new media areas, NOT for channelers.
