Features: Comics are the most closely integrated with society and life, and the most timely form of painting that reflects the realities of life. They employ various artistic techniques, using their unique elements of humor, satire, lyricism, and description to touch people's hearts and draw attention to certain social phenomena. When writing this book, I naturally want to focus on the examples of comics and provide necessary introductions and appreciations. However, I do not want my text to remain confined to specific works. I also expect my writing to possess the qualities of comics, elaborating and expanding on certain specific examples or types of illustrations. The purpose is also similar to the function of comics—to either make people pay full attention to certain phenomena or guide readers to understand richer humanistic knowledge and social life information from specific examples.
