Summary Of V For Vendetta By David Lloyd

551 Words3 Pages

While reading V for Vendetta, the layout seemed to have caught my attention. At first, it was a little confusing since I am used to reading text without visuals. However, I have noticed how David Lloyd intricately arranges the layout in a way that the reader can see the emphasized actions through the different sizes and shapes of the panels. Additionally, the reader can understand the fast-paced scenes between each panel. More specifically, the page that stands out was page 13.

In the first panel, an explosion takes place due to the tear gas that V decided to drop in order to save the girl. I believe that the larger size panel is meant to convey how harmful the tear gas explosion was on the man. The men attempt to run away as soon as they see the negative effects when in contact. On the top left corner, the word balloon is small because David Lloyd wanted more focus on the explosion. He effectively uses transitions to express how the tear gas ends up completely destroying the man. Instead of making the second panel large, he uses a smaller panel to quickly transition into how the tear gas starts a fire. Lloyd uses a yellow tone to contrast the background in the second panel. …show more content…

The panel seems to be the same size as the first panel, unlike the second panel. I found it important to see the terror of the mens’ faces as it was the focus of the panel. The large panel represents the trauma that the men experiences after the panel with the explosion. There is a word balloon located in the bottom-right corner of the panel, which is coming from the man on the right. The layout of the word balloons in the page give the readers a sense of dialogue and conversation between each character. Moreover, the small word balloon could be intentionally to show the dialogue in the background, specifically in the second

    On the other side of the wall Lulu was standing there. On page 415 it says “ You really know how to make a dramatic entrance!” This shows raising the stakes because the reader knows they are on the other side of the wall and there is nothing that they can do but yet we know that there is hope for them to get through. It also builds a mood because the reader is flustered as we the reader picture the blood running down Amys hand and all the emotions Amy’s having while Nox is trying to calm her down. They both help the story by taking the reader to a point where the reader feels like they’re there and makes the reader feel the emotions the characters are feeling.

  • Personification In The Yellow Wallpaper By Charlotte Perkins Gilman

    For instance, there is an understanding of the woman’s feelings as she describes “a recurrent spot where the pattern lolls like a broken neck and two bulbous eyes stare at you upside down” and the pattern looking at her “as if it knew what a vicious influence it had” (Gilman 437). The personification is symbolic in displaying how the woman felt as she was stuck in the lonely room with allowance of her husband and Jennie, their child’s nanny, keeping their eyes on her with the dependence of her healing. Additionally, the woman specifies that behind the yellow wallpaper she can see “a strange, provoking, formless sort of figure, that seems to sulk about behind that silly and conspicuous front design” (Gilman 438). As the appearance of the wallpaper is personified, the author taps into the hidden meaning that the woman’s sickness is taunting her as she is attempting to heal. In the end, readers are given the most significant piece of personification in the statement, “and then when the sun came and that awful pattern began to laugh at me, I declared that I would finish it today!”

    Because of this unique characteristic, the audience can connect with characters on a more personal level, witnessing the development of characters throughout the story, or rather, a coming of age. Backderf, having experienced this coming of age with the serial killer, knows Jeffrey Dahmer was more than a monster; he was a shy, disturbed young man whose thoughts coerced him into madness. As a result, Backderf conveys the timeline of Dahmer’s downfall through panels and subtle narration that allow the audience to feel sympathy for the demonized Dahmer. For example, Backderf utilizes a common comic strip technique known as a “splash page” with great regularity. These pages contain a single image that convey a dramatic emphasis on certain scenes.
