Re: My haughty definition.
Now go start a flame war. Shan't. You can't make me. One of the main things about comics, if you follow McCloud, is the use of closure. I mean, no other medium (with the arguable exception of IF, perhaps) involves you with such a deliberate use of closure. Reading RLTD for me involves a lot of clos...

Re: Comics
The animation makes the panel with the animation not comics.

Thoughts on the Ninth Art Article
Ah. Hrrrm. You know, I approached the whole comic thing from a whole different angle. For one thing, I didn't care for who wrote what and who drew what, and what writer was good, hot or cool. Perhaps I'll explain. ( No, I shall not not explain. I refuse to not explain. Skip this whole section if you...

Shamelessly butting in because he can!
[RLTD isn't comics] because the robot with the sign acknowledges the others as being simultaneously "on the stage" with him. Seen that way, it's just one single animated panel of a bunch of robots dancing. No sequence involved. Perhaps not. But what of aspect-to-aspect panels, then? Aspect-to-aspec...
