Scott McCloud Interview

[lardo76]

Bar/Bat mitzvah would make sense. That is if you don't stick to christianity

[samcwic]

I knew when I read the comment he made about Family Circus not being a comic he would get in trouble over it, even though he didn't actually make a judgment value on it. It just doesn't fit his definition.

Scott McCloud! I met him before! He was so nice. He also looked at my comic.

I have the limited edition Zot! black and white collection, the hardcover one signed by him with only 1000 made. And it may be my favorite book that I own.

he is seriously one of the best comic writters out there, I have no idea why zot #33 didnt win that harvey award it was up for

[PoisonPeachPit]

I got Zot! from B&N a month ago and haven't regret it. Does anyone know where I can get Reinventing Comics?

[nomadikk]

He does NOT look like his character in his books anymore ;)

[SgtBawlz]

I love all his books

Understanding comics

Reinventing comics

Creating comics

and of course ZOT

[idntexst]

@SgtBawlz the 3rd book was Making Comic ^^

[BlakeVII]

When I was kid this guy created Zot. A comic book that just blew my mind. He was a master of the silent pause to reflect the way the character was feeling or the way the moment was captured in time to allow the reader to appreciate the sadness, romance, action etc. Its easy to achieve on film but in a comic a comic book its kind of magic. You have to read Zot to know what I'm talking about. Thanks for the post. The artwork is brilliant for the book.

Same here. Read understanding comics. Now I looked him up on YouTube. Thanks.

Just started flipping through Understanding Comics, Reinventing Comics and Making Comics, again -- and felt compelled to look Mr. McCloud up here on YouTube. This was a short and sweet little clip, I appreciate it.

[mectersa]

I met him a few months ago at UND. He's one of the coolest people to talk to. He can talk forever about anything and still have something interesting to say.

[whatisulookinat]

Glad you got spend some time with someone you admire..always a great moment (although I have to admnit I am not sure who he is:(

[smithysrat]

I assume he's a famous comic artist in which case Kudos Mr Russell.
