Visionbooks Aims to Change the Way You Read Comics

Posted by Mike Splechta at GameZone

Reimagining or redefining the comic book can be a tough thing. Going from paper to digital was already such a huge step for the medium, one would think that was its final frontier. Turns out, there is still room for innovation in the comic book space, and Visionbooks has done this with Motion Comics. I recently got a chance to check out and learn a little more about Visionbooks and their new iPhone app, which will deliver new motion comics monthly.

Visionbooks has signed on multiple publishers that will be releasing a steady stream of comics reworked into the Visionbooks app, complete with motion graphics. These include Asylum Press, Arcana, and Vanquish Interactive.

How these motion comics work is that each panel in the comic will have some slight movement or motion, really adding a sort of kinetic feel to each scene. It's certainly not fully animated, that's what TV shows are for after all, but now you you'll get a better sense of the action, like when a hero flys up into the air, or someone slices off the head of a zombie.
