2) Describe the difference between a cartoonish face and a more realistic face in comics. What is the effect of each? What is the significance of their differences?

The difference between cartoonish face and realistic face is that the realistic face has more defined characteristics more of a specific person as with a cartoonish face would have more meaning since it is up for interpretation.

5) Define "the gutter." What is its significance and/or effect?

The Gutter is the place between frames or panels. Where your mind pieces together what happened between each frame instead of the of the artist telling you what happened, Significance of this is to get you more involved with the story.

The spectacle cannot be understood as a mere visual excess produced by mass-media technologies. It is a worldview that has actually been materialized, a view of a world that has become objective.
