“I guess the basic difference is that animation is sequential in time but in spatially juxtaposed as comics are.

“...when you look at a photo or realistic drawing of a face, you see it as the face of another . But when you enter the world of the cartoon , you see yourself.”

--and through the cartoon, the world within.”
― Scott McCloud, Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art
