When You Read Comic Books / Strips / Manga...

[generalnmx]

Just curious. When I read books, I also do the same thing, but comic books / strips / manga already have pictures. Yet your imagination should naturally enhance the experience.

 

[Aaaaaaaa]

Buiscuit, really.

Yes, I follow the story as if it was happening inside my mind. Ditto with books. Often the locations are borrowed right from real life (e.g. the hero's bedroom might look identical to mine) but basically as I read it, I visualise it. I can't actually 'not' do this. On the other hand when reading posts I don't visualise someone on a PC typing them, so meh.

EDIT: I hope only ONE person votes 'I'm sam fisher'... otherwise the rumours are true!

 

[sam fisher]

I didn't notice the sam fisher thing and accidently clicked yes. Can you change it?

Haha, even sam fisher didn't vote for himself Done.

 

[sam fisher]

It was an accident that i didn't vote for my self. I tend to try to do everything before i know what it is im doing. like that sentance.

 

[generalnmx]

Three sam fishers... :blink: I knew it! He's got multiple personalties, with multiple accounts!

 

[spray]

i asign voices to everything, even board members!

is there anyone who doesn't actually do this as they read, and how do you manage to get through books?!?

 

[DemonStar55]

Dog Biscuts don't taste good

 

[xboxit]

I had to vote I'm sam fisher :lol:
Sam didn't so WTH!!!

 

[PinkSpider]

Buiscuits, but more importantly; yes, I do.

 

[kknd_cf]

once I've imagined a location, it sticks.
And I can't change it. But they're normally really ace so i don't care. The computer hasn't fully wiped out my imaginiation quite yet

 

[Horscht]

Yes, I do so, too. But i never read books, only mangas. And unfortunately i don´t have any manga-book, for they are hard to find around here.

 

[PinkSpider]

We have a good manga shop in town, also I used Amazon before I discovered this

I read Lone Wolf And Cub book 2 last night and it freaked me out after reading this thread; I dont usually think about how Im reading :unsure:

I provide the voices in my head but I don't animate the pictures if it's a comic/manga (which is pretty much all I read), so I voted 'yes'.

It's really strange to read a book/comic and you have your own image in your head of how these characters should be talking and acting, then you watch the live action/animated version and it's totally different. Makes it feel 'wrong', even though it probably isn't.

[finty]

And sonic in Sonic X. They killed him and installed a child in his dead skin.

Yes!

Spray: What do I sound like?

Aye, that cartoon is shite. Glad it didn't exist when I read the Beano.

 

[LHC]

Actually the Dennis the Menace cartoon is superb, and if you disagree you are shit.
