NPR's Weldon opines on motion comics

Wolverine Meets Ken Burns: The Motion Comic, Considered (And A Video Extra), By Glen Weldon, National Public Radio's Monkey See blog December 9, 2009. I confess that I don't really see the point of them either.

Here's a bibliography on motion comics that will be part of the 500-page comic art bibliography making up IJOCA 11-3. Entries marked * are new and won't be in the print version.
