Its pages did not follow the typical structure of the square cartoons, but Eisner played with design, corners, shadows and typographical characters, all with a dynamism that still surprises today.
His other great milestone of his probably arrived in 1978, when he published Contract with GodA comic that had an intense and realistic story about life in the Jewish neighborhoods of New York, escaping the usual themes in the ninth art at that moment.
