With this instalment of IndieView, I wanted to cover some of the theory behind comics. Now, I’m not going to pretend I’ve got anything on the likes of Scott McCloud, but I do have a couple of valid points worth mentioning. And hey, it’s free.
Comics have always had a strange relationship with the term of “art”, or “serious art”. It’s not hard to convince people certain novels are “serious art”, and it’s not hard to do the same with certain films. However, there are only a handful of examples within the comic medium. There are a lot of reasons for this that deserve much more time and attention than I’m going to give here, so I’ll skip over that for now. However, for the most part, comics today aren’t “serious art”. |

This interview was done over two days, and I'd like to take another chance to thank Declan for taking part! |
