Little Nemo

Litte Nemo left me a little conflicted whether i truly liked the stories or not. on one had the first few where really great most the stories are about troubles going on in there lives and them being in a dream state and at the end they wake up.. and that is what conflicts me mainly because after awhile you knew they would wake up in the end of there dreams and it kinda got board with that and the stories became more predictable and took some of the suspense for me. it wasn't that the stories where not fun and interesting they where. but i knew they would wake up and that it was all a dream... but i guess i just need to forget that its all a dream because the stories where so fun and interesting about life in a weird and very dream like state.

Krazy Kat

while reading Krazy Kat the first thing that comes to my mind is pre tom and jerry probably because that its about a cat and a mouse who are causing trouble and what i grew up with as a kid. besides that i found Krazy Kat really interesting to read the language they use very interesting and added a lot to the stories and i felt like the characters come to life because of it. the way the panels are layout and the action give you a lot with very little but works well and the comic comes to life. i really enjoyed krazy kat it was a very fun read.

Understanding Comics

Understanding Comics the invisible art by Scott McCloud was an all around great read with a lot of interesting looks into how comic are formed. i think one of the things that was really caught my attention was that it doesn't matter the medium a comic is made in whether it be traditional ink or all photographic to collages. its all about the juxtaposition and sequence of events. which was kinda eye opening to me because my range of comics has been very limited and it kinda opened my eyes to think of comics in a different way.
