Why I love comics

What drives creators to work in a specific format?

Why do you love comics?

I love to write in multiple formats, but I keep coming back to comics.

There’s something truly magical about sequential storytelling that just doesn’t exist in other formats, and I feel there’s so much creative space left to explore.

By that, I mean the form of comics themselves is extremely malleable, and I believe there is so much more that can be done to push the medium. What that looks like, I don’t know. It’s hard to predict things beyond our experience, as we not only lack a frame of reference, but also any true sense of the space of possibilities.

I think that’s one of the exciting thing about comics - the space of possibilities is almost limitless.
