I love the animated yet stilted dialogue, and McCay is sometimes delightfully witty in a dry way.
This volume is not the best, but it's still very very good.Ī lot of people, including Bill Watterson (Calvin & Hobbes you can also see a LOT of Nemo influence when you compare the two) and all sorts of scholars, consider the dialogue to be the weakest point of Little Nemo, an incidental addition that isn't even hardly worth reading. He begins with the narrative text squeezed into the bottom of each panel, then tries putting it all at the beginning, then, thankfully, abandons it entirely. You can watch McCay experimenting and developing Little Nemo in this book.
