Drawing for comics is about picture writing, and getting ideas across through this process. We can see that the same experience we get from literature, seeing the story and imagery and world through the person eyes. For the Underground Comics, I can see a lot of the content in them has more mature themes that would disturb some and also at the same time make others laugh. It's the freedom of expression of the artist and their ideas. There are no fundamental rules for comics like film or like novels. We have been using this type of imagery for a long time, like political cartoons. Just like video games it created a panic of it influencing people to be bad, or stupid. It can be used as another tool to help. A lot of people in the Underground were taking risks, and because now the decades of trying to be legitimized we can see this eventually created the term "Graphic Novel" now seen as a art form and as a piece of literature. It's a media that will keep being revolutionized the same way. I can already see graphic novels developing into having mini animations.
