When I set out to experience anything in the various entertainment media–novels, movies, webcomics, what have you–I find that I often use the word “grab” to describe my response. “It just didn’t grab me,” I’ll say, or, “It grabbed me right from the start and wouldn’t let me go.”
I like the image of it: an invisible hand reaching through my eyeballs and trying to wrap its fingers around my brain. The work in question wants to affect me, after all, wants to make me see the world as its creator does, and sometimes it can, digging into the folds of my cerebrum and taking root.
