Welcome to the future of comics. Well sort of. As the world goes more and more digital it makes sense that comic companies would find a way to catch up.
The new format is called motion comics. From what I’ve gathered it is a combination of actual comics, animation, and voice over. There is a preview of one at the bottom of the link. It actually looks pretty cool from that preview. It sort of reminds me of anime but in a more americanized drawing style.
I found the article interesting since it was pointing out this is not meant in anyway to replace comics. It is meant to stimpulate comics sells. It makes total sense to me. Just look at how much movies do for the sell of comics or books. Even television shows do the same thing. This is giving another median for people to get interested in something they might not have before.
Do you agree that this could be a great way to stimpulate comic sales? Do you think you would watch these motion comics?
