I see no intrinsic reason why a doubly talented artist might not arise and create a comic-strip novel masterpiece.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Comics could use more creators with something worthwhile to say.
I believe people may have a predisposition for artistic creativity. It doesn't mean they're going to make it.
I don't think the potential for comics in nonfiction has been exploited nearly as much as it could be.
Charles Schultz is a really interesting case. He wrote that comic strip and drew it himself from beginning to end, and it's a work of genius. It's very simply drawn, but it has some really deep emotions that you don't expect in a silly-looking comic strip.
We don't really want to think that the artist is only very skilled, that he has merely devoted his life to perfecting a certain set of intelligible skills.
To be honest, writing comics is a dream come true - the form is unparalleled and is home to some of the most original and innovative storytelling around.
To paint comic books as childish and illiterate is lazy. A lot of comic books are very literate - unlike most films.
I think you can do anything with comics that you could do in just about any art form.
We don't know why we should be artists, but we have many reasons why we can't be.
I continue to be disappointed that people don't try and diversify the kind of work they are doing in comics.
