"ある意味では、コミックは凍った映画です。コミックを見ると、一般的に映画のストーリーボードを見ていることになります。"
— Michael Uslan
Simplified Meaning:
Reading a comic book is like watching a movie that doesn't move. Each page shows pictures and words that tell a story, just like a movie does. Think about those movie planning boards filled with pictures of each scene—comic books are like those boards but complete. You can see characters, their actions, and the dialogue in each box, almost like frozen frames of a movie. For example, picture Spider-Man swinging through the city. In a movie, you would see him moving fast across the screen. In a comic book, multiple pictures show Spider-Man in different positions, and you get to imagine the movement yourself. If someone wanted to turn Spider-Man into a movie, they could take those pictures and almost directly make it into a scene for the film. So, comic books are like the blueprints or plans for a movie. If you want to make your own movie, studying comic books can give you a good idea of how to lay out your scenes and story.
