Abstract

Films and comics are closely related to each other not only through film adaptations of famous comic books but especially through the main concept of both - telling us stories through sequences of images. These forms of storytelling became enormously popular among the masses and flooded our lives with visual images, which became a part of our life experiences.

However, there is a question that we have to ask ourselves - are we really able to "read" and understand these "pictures"?
