Out of many stories that I have heard and read in my art history class, one stood out to me in particular. The story is called “The Fly”<\/strong> written by Katherine Mansfield<\/strong>. This story is not only pleasant to read but also contains a lot of symbolism and concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cover page of the comic<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I have decided to illustrate this comic traditionally using black ink pens and sharpie markers<\/strong>. I came to a concussion that black and white would set a correct atmosphere\/mood to my comic (war references, son’s death, boss’s grief, the death of the fly). I have also decided that using ink pens would be a nice touch since there is ink in the story. I kept my comic six pages long<\/strong> and having the first page as a cover that reveals the picture of the son as well as states the name of the comic and the author\/illustrator. The rest are content pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have decided to illustrate the full story<\/strong> because I found it important for the viewer to accurately and clearly understand the beginning of the story in order to understand the farther development and progression of the plot. Although I have shortened the scrip<\/strong>, I have kept the important parts in the text. One being where Mr. Woodiefield mentioning the grave of the boss’ son’s grave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can understand why the boss has gotten upset and wanted to be alone for a bit afterward. One being is that his son has passed away<\/strong> at the war and the other is that there is no one to inherit his company<\/strong> anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the boss starts dripping ink onto the fly, he feels powe<\/strong>r over this fly’s life. He almost gets forgotten at the moment and gets disappointed when the fly finally dies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
