week 3 comic strips
I read a Calvin and Hobbes strip for today's class, which can be found below http://www.calvinandhobbes.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/strip.jpg I always loved this comic strip going up, it has remained simple and charming throughout the years. I prefer the simple linear drawing style with only black lines instead of the colored strips. I feel that the life the artists like Bill Watterson put into the characters bounces off more. In just four panels,, the artists can easily tell a short story. Using different panels for each key scene, they are easily able to convey a sense of time or progression in the short story. These comics don't need elaborate backgrounds or any fancy details. In the second panel, it could just be a drawing of Calvin. Lovingly simple and innocent.
