Comic literature writing

1) Briefly offer some context of the page(s) and explain what interested you about them / why you chose them specifically.

2) Choose 1 formal element (relay, layout, transitions, closure, typography, color, sound, time, etc.), and analyze how it is employed in the comic you've selected.

3) Discuss how this formal element is contributing to the narrative (ex. Why do you think the author/artist chose to utilize this particular element? What is the effect? Why do you find this element interesting or worthy of attention?). Think about not only what is happening in the story but how it is being depicted, paying special attention to the formal element you’ve chosen to focus on.

4) Identify what sense of "translation" your comic is dealing with (see definitions above; may be more than 1).
