Will Eisner was born on Main Brooklyn, New York. Fully updated and revised to reflect current practices and technology, including a section on digital media, this introduction to the art of comics is as valuable a guide as it was when first published.

He addresses dialogue, anatomy, framing, and many other important aspects of the art form. Eisner reveals here the fundamentals of graphic storytelling. Adapted from Eisner's landmark course at New York's School of Visual Arts, Comics and Sequential Art is an essential text filled with invaluable theories and easy-to-use techniques. Here, in his classic Comics and Sequential Art, he refines the art of graphic storytelling into clear, concise principles that every cartoonist, comic artist, writer, and filmmaker meeds to know. Will Eisner is one of the twentieth century's great American artists, a man who pioneered the field of comic arts. " Comics and Sequential Art is a masterwork, the distillation of Will Eisner's genius to a clear and potent elixir."-Michael Chabon, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay.
