I'm currently teaching a bunch of introductory comics classes, and I just discovered that I'm pretty bad at explaining perspective in lecture form - and downright terrible at drawing intelligible diagrams on the board while I'm at it. Comics to the rescue! Taking a cue from David Chelsea and Scott McCloud, I've put together this quick and simple Perspective Primer in an attempt to de-confuse my poor students.
Update: Here's a printable Acrobat PDF version.

This is great, Mark!!
Great job Mark!
Fantastic work Mark. Very clear explanations of what can be confusing material.
awesome!
this actually clarified some aspects of perspective that I had never quite understood.
Is it alright to use the PDF for teaching purposes?
You should really publish this, it's very helpful - much better than almost anything I've seen!
good job.
Thanks, all! And yes, Claire, by all means do. That's why I posted a PDF version. :-)
Said it on Twitter too, but I'm with Claire: there are a couple points here that I've been getting wrong for longer than I care to admit. Thanks, Mark!
