On today’s episode of In Love with the Process, host Mike Pecci dives deep into the medium that has single handedly shaped his life as a storyteller, photographer, and director. Comic books.

From the first day he cracked open a comic, Mike understood the raw power of visual storytelling. How the human brain can look at two separate images and subconsciously fill in everything that happens between them. How a strong silhouette can communicate more about a character than pages of dialogue. And how movement, posture, and framing often say everything words cannot.

To get properly nerdy about it, Mike is joined by John Amor, Eisner nominated artist and creator of Urban Animal. John is known for drawing iconic characters at an epic scale and distilling them down to their most essential shapes and gestures. His work proves that storytelling lives in posture, weight, and intent.

The two break down why comics remain one of the most powerful storytelling tools ever created, how artists guide emotion between frames, and why filmmakers have so much to learn from the medium. This episode is a love letter to visual language, composition, and the art of saying more with less.

If you love film, illustration, comics, or storytelling in any form, this episode is essential listening.
