Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art by Scott McCloud literally changed the way I looked at comic books, manga, and animation. It is probably the most in-depth look at the mechanics of how comics work ever created. This comic about comics is so good, it's almost impossible to describe to someone who hasn't read it. It is especially impressive because Scott McCloud has to create an entire nomenclature to discuss comic in a scholarly manner, since it has never been done in such depth before. Nevertheless, it is a relatively easy read, since Scott manages to inject a lot of humor into what would otherwise be a rather dry subject.

Out of all of the Ainu-related books that I read, this was my fave.

I am a huge fan of the tv adaptation of the take so I was really excited to read the book. It was just what I expected, yes it's not a work of lyrical art, it's gritty and it's written as in you are actually in London not just looking from the outside. I did skip some bits out of repetition and the swearing shocked even me (and my family are bad!) but overall I really enjoyed it.
