Panel from "Understanding Comics." I read this book so many times that I could draw the pose without reference.
Hardest but most fun challenge? Trying to imitate Bob Lappan's oddly gothic lettering.

One of my favorite bits in Understanding Comics is when he riffs off of The Treachery of Images:
"This is not a pipe."
And, of course, it's not a pipe: it's a painting of a pipe.
Well, actually, it's a drawing of a painting of a pipe.
Really it's a printed copy of a drawing of a painting of a pipe.
Ten copies if you count the panels on both pages here.
Do you hear what I'm saying?
If so, get your ears checked, because these pages haven't made a sound.
The fact that I managed to catch him at the one Canadian stop on his '50 States' tour is still something I am very glad happened.
