Discussion 6: Comics
After reading both McCloud’s Understanding Comics and Gay’s The Sacrifice of Darkness, reflect and discuss the week’s texts in at least 3 paragraphs. Consider the following:
How does McCloud’s theories better explain not just how comics as a genre work in terms of communication through the visual image but how The Sacrifice of Darkness works in telling its narrative?
How might The Sacrifice of Darkness and its cognitive estrangement and novum be commenting on things like environmental catastrophes and the role that corporations, humans, and other similar entities play in both their worsening and their remedying?
How do the visual components of The Sacrifice of Darkness enhance its story and the themes it contains? Provide specific examples.
Feel free to bring up any of the previous readings we have engaged with as long as they are relevant and please include any relevant images from the text related to your post.
