We're joined by our second-ever guest on the Lean Into Art Cast for a talk about what makes the medium of manga so unique, and what we in the west can learn from it. Kasey Van Hise walks us through the ways manga artists establish pacing, explore the expressive potential of character design, and challenge the way we think of comics composition.
