Re: Will Eisner's "technical comics"

Hi José,

Thanks for that link! its great to see this extensive collection  
online (only gripe is that it would be nice to see all the pages as  
spreads!)

'Comics and sequential art' ends with a section that includes  
'Technical instruction comics' and 'Attitudinal instruction comics' --  
so relevant, and so refreshingly different in its perspective  
(attitudinal instruction??)

cheers
Katherine


p.s. i think this will go on the Information Design Association  
twitter feed! if anyone on this list twitters, our handle is
