Through my research into non textual comic books, the name Scott McCloud kept appearing so i took a look at his work, and he is a comic book artist himself that also does numerous other things to help starting out comic illustrators. For instance there are books by McCloud that teach you how to layout your own comic book, which I found that you can purchase from a website in the website links section of this blog. Also he has a 50 state tour and own blog set up for people wanting to begin this line of work. I have also included one of his quotes into the website links section, where he defines what a comic is.

His quote on what a comic book is, influenced me to produce a piece without text for my comic book style final outcome, as i believe it to be more of an illustration when the viewer has to see it and think about it. Also its not quite a book because it doesnt require the viewer to read through sections.
