5 out of 5 stars A fun read, filled with excellent information.   January 21, 2010

This book is great for everyone. It's not just about writing for comics. It's about writing. Mr. David talks about structure and how to craft each act of a three act story. The whole book is packed full of anecdotes as well as references to comic stories in which the information is exampled.

I have to admit this book did get me to buy some of the old stories that he used in his examples.
