  3. I remember 9th grade, opening up my english textbook and finding 10 pages of Understanding Comics. Seeing comics taken seriously was such an important moment for me. Very excited to see this trend. #Cartooning #Art #traditionalArt #ink #comics #comicArt #ScottMcCloud

  9. Book 26: “The Cartoonists Club” by #RainaTelgemeier and #ScottMcCloud.

    Four kids, each representing types of people and artists—the one with ideas, the one who can draw, the one who only sees their mistakes, and the one who likes to try new things—form the titular club. And we get an easy to understand how-to for making comics (and friends). Fun and accessible lessons with McCloud’s usual meta references to the genre.

  18. Scott McCloud (Soulside) To Release Debut Solo Album

    Scott McCloud (Girls Against Boys, Soulside, Paramount Styles) is set to release his debut solo album, ‘Make it to Forever,’ on January 30, 2026. The first video and single, ‘Come Round,’ is out now. Conceived as raw recordings on acoustic guitar and voice, the album was recorded in Athens, Greece, a place holding “mythological meaning” for him. The songs, fleshed out with musical guests, maintain a vulnerable atmosphere and explore memories, blurring the reality of experience itself.

  22. @scottmccloud.bsky.social 5 Card Nancy

    “Nancy is Plato's playground… a drawing of three rocks in a background scene was Ernie's way of showing us there were some rocks in the background. It was always three. Why? Because two rocks wouldn't be "some rocks." Two rocks would be a pair of rocks. And four rocks was unacceptable because four rocks would indicate "some rocks" but it would be one rock more than was necessary to convey the idea of "some rocks."

  37. Incidentally, over on Twatter, Scott McCloud reminded us all that his groundbreaking book “Understanding Comics” is 30 years old. Fresh as ever, if you ask me! I have been using extracts in the Italian version on the past two weeks with great success.

    Incidentally, I do hope the lovely comics people, and more of the comics/academic hybrids, shift to Mastodon because I really miss the interactions. #ScottMcCloud @nsousanis #comics

  41. @uncomics I think it depends on your definitions of "comics"; if you're using #ScottMcCloud's “juxtaposed pictorial and other images in deliberate sequence, intended to convey information and/or to produce an aesthetic response in the viewer” the issue hinges on the sequence, and also on the reason for the division. In a comics space there isn't really a material reason for the division of the #drawing (or #painting) into separate panels other than generating a sequence...
