Understanding Comics

I thought “Understanding Comics” was a great reading, and brought up many interesting points. One of the most interesting things it mentioned was the idea that we make many things into shapes that remind us of human faces. And it was interesting to think about how we can recognize the human face even in its most simplified form. Another point made was about how the artist chooses how to portray the cartoon, and how much detail to include. By making the cartoon with less detail, it becomes more appealing to the masses.
