other uses for the Compact Oxford English Dictionary's complementary magnifying loupe include: being finally able to read Chris Ware's lettering 👍
chris ware - the acme novelty datebook, volume three (2002–2023)[WHAT CAN COMICS DO BETTER THAN ANYTHING ELSE?]
CHRIS WARE: "oh, HI! —well, i'm glad you asked!"
----
COMICS can activate the reductive visual language of memory, which otherwise cripples the keenness of immediate human sense perception, into a quasi-theatrical pseudo-memory!
----
COMICS can thus be a great mechanism for accessing one's ineffably complex skein of thought, recollection and self-deceiving personal identity! 
----
PLUS comics can make concrete the hidden structures, paths and shapes of life seen from the outside-in while capturing and codifying its hidden rhythms and silent musical patterns! —let's get STARTED, okay?
