SciArt of the Day: Night Growl

This article was published in Scientific American’s former blog network and reflects the views of the author, not necessarily those of Scientific American


A well done science comic is one of the most effective ways to convey science communication. The visual hook of a narrative with lively (or in this case, sleepy) characters peppered with the facts creates a flow that a wall of text can't match. This comic by Maki Naro of Sci-ənce is a perfect example.
