Why read it?
1 author picked Graphic Storytelling and Visual Narrative as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
In his foreword, Eisner writes: “In this work, I hope to deal with the mission and process of storytelling with graphics.” Where McCloud shows you different options and tools for how to choose images to explore ideas, Eisner gets specific, and shows you how he does it. This book, along with the four others I recommend, and mine, gives you all the tools you need to choose your own path for effectively working as a writer and/or artist in the sequential art medium.
From Lee's list on the craft of comics.
