Scott McCloud

I think I can officially say that I'm a comic book nerd, or at least dangerously close to that line because I thought this was a really cool perspective on the future of comic books. McCloud's emphasis on maintaining the "comic-book-ness" in a digital comic is really important for someone who actually follows comic's. The entire idea is that there is still enough room in between frames for your imagination to be activated. Once it becomes too fluid it turns into an animated show, and then there's no longer any brain power involved (although I'm sure many will argue that there's not much brain power involved in reading a comic book either, but I would debate that).
