Understanding Comics
The Invisible Art
by Scott McCloud
Understanding Comics is a comic that acts as an introduction to the medium of comics, or 'sequential art.' McCloud looks at the secret history of proto-comic storytelling, including things like the Bayeux Tapestry, the relationship between images and text, the uses of simplicity, and the different kinds of sequences that can be used to tell stories. A nice starting point for learning about comics as an art form, I think.
