I&#8217;m hoping that the hour-long conversation here gave me a bit more room to make my case in a more nuanced and thorough way than in the original post. One of the hosts mentioned this in so many words&#8211;so I certainly hope so. I do wonder, though, if I communicated as well in my initial writings as I wanted to. \u00a0There was a fair amount of talk from the hosts about things like comics formats\/trim sizes and people using comics as movie &#8220;pitches&#8221;&#8211;two things that are maybe tangentially related to my original points, but certainly not central. I for sure noted when discussing this verbally that there&#8217;s a lot of potential confusion related to the words &#8220;terminology&#8221; and &#8220;language.&#8221; In both my original post and in the podcast, I tried to use &#8220;terminology&#8221; to refer to vocabulary and &#8220;language&#8221; to refer to the formal visual language of particular media&#8211;but I can tell that this is potentially confusing.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, <a href=\"http:\/\/deconstructingcomics.com\/?p=4338\" target=\"_blank\">here&#8217;s a link to the podcast<\/a>.
