From bestselling cartoonist and 2019 MacArthur Fellow Lynda Barry, Making Comics is an unconventional, hand-drawn guide to creativity, storytelling, and comics-making. Drawing on her years teaching students of every major at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, Barry shares the exercises and insights that have helped countless people discover their creative potential. A follow-up to her bestselling Syllabus, the book encourages readers to draw, doodle, keep journals by hand, and embrace the playful process of making comics, whether they consider themselves artists or not. At its core is Barry's belief that creativity helps us make sense of the world and that anyone willing to practice can find their own cartooning genius. Winner of the Eisner Award for Best Publication Design.
