Resum

In 1993, Scott McCloud published his first essay about comic in comic format: Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art, whose early success turned it to one of the main references in comic studies. In his work, McCloud defined comic as a strictly sequential art, and raised a classification of panels transitions that came from his concept of closure. After identifying certain limitations of his theories, a critique to these points through the analysis of some comics and the use of specialized bibliography is presented, and some more suitable alternatives for contemporary comics are proposed.
