'Protanopia' introduces a next-generation digital comic that blends 2D animation with 3D graphics for a unique and interactive experience that is controlled with the tilt of one's mobile device.
The digital comic from artist André Bergs takes inspiration from the classic comic book strip format, but makes it possible for users to look beyond the confines of a border to see more of a scene in greater detail. As Bergs describes, Protanopia is the "experiment into the possibilities of digital comics."
Since there are many comic book consumers who support both print and digital publications, there seems to be ample room for experimentation, especially with formats that offer the charm of a familiar print experience enhanced with cutting-edge technology.
