If I had stopped reading Reading Comics halfway through, I’d have been left with this further confusion. But in the second part of the book, where Wolk gives short descriptions of twenty important narrative comics artists (most of them individual writer-drawers, some of them writer-drawer teams, a few of them just writers), I found my interest in the book intensified, to the point of delight. It became one of the most interesting books of criticism I have ever read, something that made me think harder not only about comics, but all of aesthetics and art. And it convinced me that there were graphic novels I should read. And I since have, with great pleasure and more.
