Title: A wasted opportunity
Review: Someday, someone will write a complete guide to using computers and 3d software to create comics. This, sadly, isn't the book. Just looking at the examples provided throughout should be a warning sign to anyone actually interested in comics: They have the quality of the work of a 13-year-old with some computer ability.There's no real information on what makes good comics, no discussion of proper pane layout, no information on giving a narrative flow or even making the different elements fit together. Poser models are placed in front of backgrounds without an attempt to link the two, and it shows as models float over scenes instead of fitting in.Mortier should have gotten a comics professional to co-author this book and give it better direction. As it is, it's a guide to creating poses and backgrounds. Poses and backgrounds do not comix make.
